Maybe it's because Yugoslavia has so many pro players on it's team,but you are really starting to resemble the NBA teams in that regard.I've watched a few of your games in the tournament,and it has been embarrassing to watch your players moan,cry,and b*tch so much to the officials.You have been the worst team in the tournament,in that regard.I respect much more a team that can lose with dignity,than one who wins while acting in an unsportsmanlike manner.
It's awful tough to respect the Vlade Divac's of the world.
That's my opinion,whether you like it or not.

Thank you for your opinion. I really respect it.
Well, you are right. It is some kind of manner that our players always have something to tell to the officials. That's our problem, and we have to stop with that. But I would'n describe it as "moaning, crying ...". What, you want to say that there is no foul when one of USA players blasted off our Vlade Divac out of playground in the end of match? But as officials said, there is no foul. That makes Divac angry, but we never cried to officials. Just to be sure, try to find some of Yugosav sites where somebody wrote one bad word for the officials.
When we talk about loser's dignity, I have to write something: What USA player does when they lost from Yugoslavia? They run to the shower, everybody but Reggie Miller. There was no compliments ... They just run away. When Divac asked American players for towel, they didn't gave it. Well, they were team friends until "yesterday".
That situation don't makes me angry, because I know how they feel. This message is not for bulling. I know there are much difference in playing rules between USA and Europe. I hope they can find the compromise, and we will play under same rules in next matches.
Thank you again for your comment. As I said, I really appreciate it.
