Nemanja Nedovic - "the European Derrick Rose"

[Grinder]

He'll probably be in this coming draft. A 6'3" combo guard with elite athleticism out of Serbia. He tested out with a 41" vert. Averaged 16/4/2 on 48% from the field, 35% from 3, and 91% from the FT line.

You guys will get a chance to see him play in the u20 European championships next week.

[Theoo's Daddy]

I want to see him in the NBA.. Tony wrotten jr >>>..

[jamal99]

:applause: for the thread and comparison

I always compared him to Rose too. Great slasher, great athlete, they have almost the same style of play. Both PGs who play more like SGs.

I think that he can become something special, but he needs to mature (mentally)...

No man, props to you, you were the first one to bring him to my attention like 2 years ago. :applause:

He's 6'4" in shoes so he's no that undersized should he end up playing the 2 full time. I think if he can make a solid improvement in his playmaking ability and decision making while shoring up his perimeter J, he could end up being a top 10 pick next year.

Just watched that video.:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

The one crazy thing about this dude is in each dunk clip he literally does not brace for any impact, he literally attacks the rim as if no one is there. Thats a scary thought for a defender knowing you have a dude who is going to hit you at full speed at the basket. Even Derrick Rose is most known for adjusting for contact.

The speed/agility & the way he dunks without any regard reminds me of Steve Francis. He'd hit the rim like a bullet until injuries wore him down.


What is his contract like? Is he the type of guy who'll be able to come over immediately and go in Round 1 or is he the type of guy who goes in Round 2 and the Spurs hold his rights for a few years?

I like that Francis comparison, but Nedovic is way more polished than Travis Leslie who's pretty much just a spectacular athlete and not much more.

As of now, there's not really a contract issue, the NBA limit of $500,000 should be more than enough to cover a buyout to the Serbian club he's on (if necessary). However, some bigger clubs like Maccabi Tel Aviv and some Italian clubs are showing interested and they'd probably try to enforce some clause that would make it tough for him to come over right away.

I think if he remains with his current club, he'll come over right away for sure if he's a first rounder. If he has even a decent season this year, I can't see him dropping to the 2nd round and being a stash candidate.

[Euroleague]

He's good, but Rakocevic was better.

He won't amount to anything in the NBA, as long as the NBA coaches continue their racist way of thinking against athletic white European guards. Rakocevic was similar, only better and more talented.

And the NBA just refused to play him when he went there.

this guy is slow as shit compared to rose, but i do like how fearless he is when going to the basket

[Go Getter]

Rakocevic is way better than those players.
1. The kid is 19. Calm down.
2. My point was that plenty of foreign guards get a shot in the NBA.

Lmao at white America coddling black athletes yet being racist against alabaster ones. Id love to live in that world for a few minutes.(j/k)

[Borat_Sagdyev]

He's good, but if Nedovic the European Derrick Rose, then Tomas Satoransky European LeBron James :D

[chips93]

I don't know about this, next season the draft is deep..


ive heard that its great at the top, but not especially deep.

top 10 pick in 2012 > top 10 pick in 2011

20-30 pick in 2012 = 20-30 pick in 2011

lol I love how amped the Euro coach got when he dunked in the 2nd clip.

Don't see that in the NBA

Wroten is going to turn heads, this year at washington. He is on every scouting report for Pac-10 teams.

Yeah, I remember now. It was a thread about Valanciunas I think and Nedovic had some nasty dunk against Turkey and I posted the video.

If he stays with his current club he'll be able to come over immediately. But some bigger clubs from Europe showed interest, and players who sign there have some buyout clauses that cause difficulties.

[Grinder]

Kuric is pretty one dimensional though, and I don't think he's got the body control and speed of Nedovic. I was pretty shocked when he threw down that poster. :oldlol:

Peyton Siva on the other hand...

top 10 pick in 2012 > top 10 pick in 2011

Guys who will go between 20-30 in 2012 are on par with "Late Lottery" talents in 2011.

[IGOTGAME]

Nemanja has just declared for the NBA draft.

[DGARAS]

can't wait

[Grinder]

Nedovic has had a pretty mediocre season it seems. At this point he's more like the European Keyon Dooling.

[EvanW]

doesnt seem as good as goran dragic let alone derrick rose.

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

just a bunch of clips of him dunking. Nice that he finishes at the rim, but can he hit an outside shot? can he pass? does he play D?

[Fiba basketball]

He cant pass , cant shoot and plays bad D . Last year he was key player on a very bad team ( second to last in Adriatic league ) and thats why he looked better than he was . This year he got new coach ( Pesic ) who moved him to a sg ( so he can improve his weakneses ) and didnt give him playing time because he wants good defense from his players . He didnt improve much and he wasnt even in the first 12 for couple of seasons , sn this was bad season for him . He had some good move thought , month ago he had a dunk against Hemofarm that you can call best dunk in Europe this year .

[blablabla]

No man, props to you, you were the first one to bring him to my attention like 2 years ago. :applause:

He's 6'4" in shoes so he's no that undersized should he end up playing the 2 full time. I think if he can make a solid improvement in his playmaking ability and decision making while shoring up his perimeter J, he could end up being a top 10 pick next year.

Guys like Nedovic, Satoransky, and Vesely are putting the "unathletic white Euro" stereotype to rest
is satoransky coming to the nba this year ??

[It's A VC3!!!]

So your saying he's Rose only in Europe? What about when he comes here?:lol

I never like these comparisons with allstars. They don't make any sense.

[R.I.P.]

Yeah finally we have our own idiots, who brick 6 footers, shoot 35% from the line, but have one spectacular dunk per game. :lol

That's when you find out how good they are.

They say Spanoulis was the TMac of Europe then he came to NBA and turn out to be just another scrub who can't do things he does in minor league and at the same time getting exposed defensively.

Is he even a pro? Uniform looks hand-sewn and the arena @1:00... my high school gymnasium sat more people...

Americans have no problems whatsoever respecting the white athletes that know how to get shit done - including Europeans. The real problem? Nemana Nedovic just doesn't look that good :confusedshrug: , we're just callin it like we see it. Slow, T-rex wingspan, can't play D, can't shoot from range - looks like a 6 foot homeless mans Tom Chambers forced to play point because he never got big enough to play forward...

Sloukas is a much more impressive point guard than Nedovic. He's like a better version of Calderon already.

[ImmortalNemesis]

Spanoulis is much better than T-Mac is.

When they both played for Houston Tracy was way better than Spanoulis. Currently? I don't see how that's relevant.

Do they even play defence in Europe?

Nedovic is playing sg now , Pesic doesnt want Nedovic to play pg . I like Sloukas but he will never be one of the best pgs in Europe he will be on the same lvl. like Cook but not like Teodosic , Bo , Diamantidis . Nedovic has more potential than Sloukas but he doesnt have high BB IQ . I dont think Nedovic is best Serbian player in his generation , Andjusic is .

You underrate Sloukas a lot. He's the best shooter in Europe, which will allow him to become more and more dangerous as he develops more and gets older.

Ok... I don't even like Derrick Rose because of his undeserved hype.

However... lol @ comparing this kid to Rose. You do realize that Rose is probably the quickest player in the NBA, right? Aside from initial quickness, the only player in the league even comparable to Rose in terms of top foot speed with the ball is LeBron. And guess what? The kid in that video looks like he's standing still by comparison.

This thread sucks.

[Osiris]

European Derrick Rose? Nice, sounds a lot like Stephon Marbury.

[Fiba basketball]

Sloukas isnt best shooter in Europe you are overrating him , I can think of a lot of players better shooters than him . How old is he ? He can become top 5 pg but top 3 no way , I cant see him being better than Teodosic , McCalleb , Huertas .

[Euroleague]

Sloukas is the best shooter in Europe. You have not seen him play that much. It's not even debatable for me. He's a better shooter than Navarro is.

Even when Sloukas was 18 he would hit the net without even grazing the rim. He's just a naturally gifted pure shooter. Those are very rare.

Sloukas lacks in athletic ability obviously, and that is his main problem. Then again, Diamantidis and Jasikevicius are about zero in athletic ability, especially Diamantidis.

The thing is that Sloukas is such a good shooter, that teams cannot give him space. They have to guard him, and he's a surprisingly good with penetration with the dribble and even though he can't finish around the rim, he knows how to draw fouls.

I am telling you, as he gains more experience, he is going to be a hell of a player. He's way better than Calathes for example, and the NBA drafted him already 3 years ago.

Anyway, why are you talking about McCalebb, Huertas, Teodosic? I said he was already better than Calderon, not them.

Also, let's be honest here. Teodosic is PG on offense, but he's a SG on defense. You can't call him a true point guard because of that (even though on offense he is).

McCalebb is a point guard on defense, but he's a SG on offense. So again, you can't call him a real PG either, he's more like a midget SG.

Just so you know, Siena actually moved Zisis into the lineup with McCalebb recently, so that McCalebb does not have to play point guard anymore.

Sloukas is a point guard. He's a PG on offense and defense, but he can play SG if needed, due to his shooting.

But, I think if you are comparing direct players to him in the same mold, then McCalebb and Teodosic have not much similarity.

Huertas is a good comparison, but not the other two.

Caroll is best shooter in Europe and Sloukas isnt close to it . Best shooter is player that can shoot the best in the game and not who could shoot best if given space ! So what if he is better than Calderon , that still isnt good enough to be top 3 pg . I said that he will be great pg but I dont think he has potential to be better than Teodosic , Bo and Huertas and thats why he cant become top 3 pg

Wait a minute, are you saying that Spanoulis isn't one of the 3 best point guards in Euroleague?

[jamal99]

Nedovic said that he will enter 2012 NBA Draft.

[Fiba basketball]

Wait a minute, are you saying that Spanoulis isn't one of the 3 best point guards in Euroleague?
Yes I m because I think he isnt a pg , in my oppinion he is a sg ( best sg in Europe this season ) .

[Euroleague]

Yes I m because I think he isnt a pg , in my oppinion he is a sg ( best sg in Europe this season ) .

Then why does he play PG for the last like 6 years? He even played PG last year when Teodosic was on his team, and Teodosic got moved to SG.

And he plays the vast majority of minutes at PG this year. There was a 2-3 game stretch where Ivkovic moved him to SG, trying to figure out where Acie Law could fit the team. It didn't work with Law running the team.

So Ivkovic changed the positions back, and since Mantzaris has developed into a good spot shooter and Sloukas is doing better on defense, he was able to switch the positions, to fit Law into the team.

So, Spanoulis/Sloukas is the rotation at PG and Mantzaris/Law/Gecevicius is the rotation at SG.

So Spanoulis played PG the whole year so far, except for those games at the beginning when Law joined the team, and they were experimenting with him at PG instead of Spanoulis. Ivkovic found out that Law is better at SG, so they stopped that.

So yeah, Spanoulis is still playing PG, as of now.

So, where would you rank Spanoulis then?

[Euroleague]

Nedovic said that he will enter 2012 NBA Draft.

Probably a smart choice. If he waits for another year and still does not play much he might not get drafted. This way he can wow some NBA team with his jumping ability and probably get picked.

So, where would you rank Spanoulis then?
He is still a sg to me ( and acording to Euroleague site he is a sg ) . When I said top 3 pgs I was talking aboute pgs that will be best when Sloukas reaches his prime . If I look at Spanoulis as a sg than I have to look Diamantidis as a pg too and I would take Teodosic and McCalleb over two of them . I cant decided Spanouls and Diamantidis but in 4 or 5 years Huertas is going to take their place .

[Fiba basketball]

Theirs a rumor than Nedovic is going to sign with Lietvus Ritas . Thats a bad thing for team that will draft him

[Euroleague]

He is still a sg to me ( and acording to Euroleague site he is a sg ) . When I said top 3 pgs I was talking aboute pgs that will be best when Sloukas reaches his prime . If I look at Spanoulis as a sg than I have to look Diamantidis as a pg too and I would take Teodosic and McCalleb over two of them . I cant decided Spanouls and Diamantidis but in 4 or 5 years Huertas is going to take their place .

Can you explain why you think Spanoulis is a SG when he plays at PG since 2006?

As for Diamantidis, he is a point forward, small forward that runs the offense. You don't have to consider him a PG.

Some point forwards get called "point guards", like Magic Johnson, and some get called small forwards, like Larry Bird and Scottie Pippen. Either way, Diamantidis is a point forward, not a point guard.

But Spanoulis is definitely a PG, considering he has been playing that position for the last 6 years.

And Euroleague's website has all kinds of errors on player's positions. Check it yourself. They call Lorbek a center, Batiste a forward.........they list Mirotic as a small foreard at the fantasy site, etc. (many other such errors).

The Euroleague site and the fantasy site, and the All-Euroleague voting system list a whole bunch of players at the wrong positions. So that does not mean anything. Euroleague's website is still a bit amateurish for the level of a top sports league, even though they are trying to make it better.

Can you explain why you think Spanoulis is a SG when he plays at PG since 2006?

As for Diamantidis, he is a point forward, small forward that runs the offense. You don't have to consider him a PG.

Some point forwards get called "point guards", like Magic Johnson, and some get called small forwards, like Larry Bird and Scottie Pippen. Either way, Diamantidis is a point forward, not a point guard.

But Spanoulis is definitely a PG, considering he has been playing that position for the last 6 years.

And Euroleague's website has all kinds of errors on player's positions. Check it yourself. They call Lorbek a center, Batiste a forward.........they list Mirotic as a small foreard at the fantasy site, etc. (many other such errors).

The Euroleague site and the fantasy site, and the All-Euroleague voting system list a whole bunch of players at the wrong positions. So that does not mean anything. Euroleague's website is still a bit amateurish for the level of a top sports league, even though they are trying to make it better.
When I watch him play he reminds me more to a sg than a pg . Ok , if I consider Spanoulis as a pg and Diamantidis as a sf than Spanoulis is 3rd best pg .
