    Hmmmm kj let me help explain to you brother. Need to look at the stats. JB played 3 mn at Zadar and scored 6 pts. Played 30 mn in switzerland and scored 47 points first game. Played 4 years ncaa division 1 and led nation in 3 pt percentage 2012. Shooting 12/15 in Switz may be easier then adriatic, but that wasn’t his point. Point is Zadar missed out on a good player because of poor decision at coaching level and management. 🙂

    This is funny because my bro only got 3 minutes of play time in the one month he was there. They didn’t renew his contract so he got picked up by a team in switzerland and just scored a career high 47 points in one game. Looks like zadar lost the last 9 games after he left also….hmm….looks like Branko might need to find a new job.

      Sorry to explain. These leagues are uncomparable. To score 47 in Switzerland doesn’t mean nothing comparing to 6 pts in Adriatic. It’s like shooting the basket with no guards at the backyard. 🙂
