[@dusankrmar3304]

Darko Milicic hated basketball as a whole, not just playing in the NBA. In some of the Serbian podcasts where he was interviewed he talked about it. Basically, until high school (age of 15) he was playing in his hometown and enjoying basketball. As he was tall and extremely talented he went to play in another city in one of the best youth basketball programs in Serbia and lived alone in what is essentially a boarding school. Basketball became more professional and stopped being a game. He said that he wanted to quit a million times at that moment and return home, but didn't have the heart to tell his parents as they sacrificed a lot during the 90s (which were an extremely bad and rough period of time) to bring up him and his sister. Especially later on when he was projected to go to the NBA and earn millions. It didn't help that he was drafted at only 18 years of age with an extremely hot head and crazy temper. If he had some form of psychological help or support he would have maybe had a different career trajectory. I would even dare to think that if he remained in Europe under euro coaches which are more strict that his career would have been better. Nothing worse than putting such a lost and crazy kid in the NBA, which alienates much older and mature players with the style of training, playing and the off-court life. I'm glad that he matured and found happiness in life afterwards, he seems like a really cool guy now.

I still remember when he maybe a year prior NBA cooked Lietuvos Rytas with Vrsac Hemofarm. I thought like: wow, this guy plays like 80% Gasol/20% Dirk. Great talent. And that he was picked 2nd in top 3 NBA draft of all time says it all about how huge are his "what ifs".

Miličić is a supporter of the Ravna Gora movement (Ravnogorski pokret),[70] and has tattoos of World War II Chetnik leaders Nikola Kalabić[71] and Momčilo Đujić on his stomach,[72] and Draža Mihailović and Brane Bogunović on his back.[73] In late 2013, he expressed his support for far-right politician and convicted war criminal Vojislav Šešelj.[74]

According to Basketball-Ref, Bynum earnt about 73m over 9 years in the NBA. While these figures are likely more than he actually took home himself, the fact is that a *lot* of people would spend 9 years doing a job they hated if they got paid 8 figures for it.

[@75aces97]

Bingo! Lots of people work jobs they don't like just to put food on the table. If I could make $20 million by age 30 I'd have done just about anything legal. Where I went to college there was one player who reputedly hated basketball, according to his coach. This guy never made the NBA, of course, but I talked to a coworker who kept in touch with this player several years later, and he told me he was playing pro ball in Japan. I said, wait a minute, I thought he didn't even like basketball. Coworker said, he doesn't, but he does like making half a million $ a year.

[@theretiredyogi4246]

Milicic legendary guy

[@AVuckovicKG]

You conveniently omitted to mention that Darko actually started hating basketball in Minnesota because the entire team was helping Kevin Love stat pad. He was averaging something like 28/15/7 while they were a 25w team. On one occasion they got into conflict because of the way team played and team management asked Darko to apologize to Love since he was the biggest star on the team to what he replied: “I’m not gonna apologize to that cry baby.” Not that I’m defending Darko as my fellow countrymen, but like you and many of these players say, NBA is 99% business and 1% basketball.

[@sugoneseballs365]

Everyone knows Kevin Love is not that good and was stat padded, I don't think anyone thinks Darko is a bad guy over that.

[@andrem.thomas332]

Darko was a bust years before Kevin Love got to the NBA. Darko was a bust because he was a bust.

That's such bullshit 😂Darko was complete shit in Minnesota and Klove was a solo star in a team with complete bums. So he had no choice but to average 25 and 18

[@Raptorsified]

One forgotten story of a guy who fell out of love with basketball is Larry Sanders. At one point the Bucks were fighting tooth and nail to get this guy on the court, but I remember that summer when something snapped mentally for him. I hope he's doing well now.

​​@@williamphillips3035money talks

[@Marco-uh5zn]

@ivanstojanovic621 True; Luka likes to humiliate other players, while Jokic does his job and earn his money, that's all. Jokic did care of winning his first ring, but i think, he doesn't like the idea to succeed in the playoffs during the next seasons, at all. He was literally pissed in terms of his very short holiday after his deep playoff run, heading to the finals and his first ring. He admitted in front of the camera a few months ago, that he doesn't like his job, because nobody likes his job; thats wild, but it is funny af. Obviously he cares about not to become the face of the league or a 24/7 hyped superstar and a 24/7 scrutinized mvp-candidate. For him mvp is nice to have, but he hates all this ego - shit, which comes with all these conversations and comparisons with Embiid and stuff; he is a team player, does his job and refuses to sell his soul. He disappoints crazy expectations of media on purpose. The media, trying to scandalize, sensationalize everything 24/7; Jokic destroys his potential celebrity status on purpose; this is funny and the dude obviously is very smart.

[@gahdhsh623]

luka paid something like a million dollars to get home as fast as possible this year... no need to talk about jokic. our people like to sit, talk, drink beer and watch sports not playing it. 😂

[@neilbryanbucsit197]

I can understand the frustrations of some of the guys.. Imagine being a superstar caliber player in the euro league then you go into the nba to further improve your skills and when you get to the league you get benched for some up and coming college player or being benched and not showcasing what you can do to the team

[@acceptpapara]

I think Efthimios Rentzias and Sarunas Jasikevicius were amongst the players not happy with the NBA treatment. And I have a feeling that pretty soon, Sasha Vezenkov will be another one.

Subscribed. honestly its crazy to think guys don't like playing in the NBA. but I do feel like the NBA style of play is not as high level as people believe it is. I think Europe is going to surpass the NBA eventually if American fans do not start valuing team ball.

[@CarlKarnak]

I agree. Especially since players don't hone their skills at college for four years anymore. Basketball is completely dumbed down in the US. Jokic and Doncic are making that pretty clear than even with disproportionately lower representation in the NBA as a whole, the Eruos that play here are making dramatic impacts. Jokic and Doncic are not an outlier, they are a trend.

[@timlett99]

WCS and Parker really spit some facts, the NBA is by far the best league in terms of quality of talent but in terms of pure enjoyment it’s done more than gone down hill and it’s hard for fans to understand that. The league isn’t what it was and while those guys aren’t perfect, the NBA is very very different than the game we grew up playing and I think that’s where we lose guys. Not to mention Europeans do pretty much everything better than we do lol but that’s subjective to an extent

Cauley-Stein was obvs talking about Luka who was his teammate in Dallas. Also important to mention is that Cauley-Stein pretty much quit on his team during the season.

I have a friend who’s a pro and also in the national team. Not USA of course. But still, they train 2 times, plus a weight room session, 6 days a week. And the remaining time are for footage, team meetings, etc. During his off season when he gets to come home and when we hangout he doesn’t event wanna talk about basketball. He gets paid pretty well compared to your average 9-5 worker, plus he can save most of his money as food and accommodation are all paid for, but still it’s 8-10 hours of sweat, sore muscles, intense workouts and suffering for 6 days a week. Most people do not understand the work pro athletes put in behind the scenes, all they see is the fame and the money, they never see the hard work.

There are probably a lot more who could make this list. Basketball is one of those sports where you pretty much need to be physically abnormal to be exceptional. If you're 6'9 and athletic, you may not love the game, but you'd be a fool not to take advantage of a chance to go to school tuition free, or make a few pesos if you can. Might as well ride the gravy train to the end of the line.

[@omnivorous65]

I love basketball. Always loved basketball. I played two seasons professionally where you practise everyday, then game day. In preseason you practise twice a day. Even without injuries your body is always tired and achy. You stop enjoying the game, it becomes a chore. You question if it is a suitable activiity for a grown man. No matter how much you might loved the game you loose that love. When I started playing casually again, the old passion came back. Anyone who critizes player for such statement, try it yourself. See how much you like it.

Also he didnt get playing time, and was drafted in a team that did not need him. I hate that he is labeled bust, he didnt deserve that, just a kid. but if he got a good coach like Pop or Pat or Phil or Spoelstra would have guided him much better.

But I`m sure that those Europeans would have had a much better NBA career if they have been given a real chance to play.

[@skipperson4077]

Um, sports tend to be color-free if you have ability. White guy might have to prove himself against similar sized black dude, but at the end of the day it's all about putting the ball in the hole. Ask Tiger Woods. Jimmer lost me when he straight-up refused to play point guard and to develop the skills that entails, despite not being able to guard most NBA shooting guards. He got what he wanted in China, a team willing to let him shoot 80 times a game.

[@petesmart1983]

Freddette had multiple chances but was never good enough cause he puts big numbers up on china!!.

Dirk, jokic, doncic,dragic, Marc and Pau gasol, vucevic,gortart, sabonis,nurkic.

Yeah growing up in Serbia in the 90s you bet he’s got a temper 😂

[@cheft6984]

Mirotic

[@ivanstojanovic621]

Yes Mirotic, if he stayed in the NBA he would have solid minutes even would be a started in many teams, but he choose to return to Europe instead.

[@el0kadur]

Ben Simmons

[@skipperson4077]

and possibly Andrew Wiggins

[@Goxilla]

Milos Teodosic hated his stint in the NBA

[@petesmart1983]

Cause he wasn't good enough, from being a star in Europe to being a backup and cried about it despite not being good enough

[@Goxilla]

lol you don´t know anything do you@@petesmart1983

[@bkbaughn]

Parker is a strange one... He didn't play because of his defense... But there's like next to no defense in the NBA anymore... Look at my Pacers... They're terrible defensively and have guys who olay more than they try to move their feet and stay in front... Same with the team he used to play for... The Bucks don't play defense either... The NBA is going that way so I don't see why Parker wouldn't get another shot in the league...

[@zouldiersheat5667]

Nikola Jovic would be on this list soon if Erik Spoelstra keeps this up

[@petesmart1983]

He's not good tho, poor shooter, defender and awful rebounder

[@africadondada6555]

Hated playing in the NBA...Nah. Couldn't MAKE IT in the NBA

[@kurtmagnus5243]

I’m surprised you didn’t mention Allen Iverson

[@fadercreek]

i blame the owners and adam silver

[@eazydp]

Do all the players who hated playing in Europe and then decided to take their talents to the NBA next😜, the narratives this guy weaves man 😂

[@petesmart1983]

Reality is these are big stars in Europe then can't cope with small roles in the NBA

[@drdisresfaketaxi2898]

Bro NBA today is more like 1v1 in the arc step back and 3

[@ΚέβινΧάνια]

To be fair, I clicked on this video because of spanulis

[@sergiotorresdiazdecevallos5657]

[@birdzviews]

[@joseyeastwood]

[@drsapnis]
