    yeah drazen was much better but not as good as sabonis, his level is something totally different, if him and any of the nba great centers faced each other in their primes, he would make them look like *****es

    I was refering to croatian players.Sabonis and Petrovic are two of the top 5 players ever to come out of europe.
    for me petrovic,gallis,epi,nowitzki,sabonis is my best of all time 5.
