What they said about Dejan Srzic:
We worked together-in „Red Star” and „Edmontonu”. It seems that basketball is
in his blood. We can’t deny his knowledge. With great tactics especially at individual field, Factor called luck stopped him to accomplish what he really deserved.
But, it’s never late…
Dule Vujosevic - coach of BC PARTIZAN. Holds 20 Championship titles. Coached Partizan, Scvolini, CSKA, Serbia and Montenegro National Team.
I was a member of “Stefanel” when I first shook Srzic’s hand at junior’s preparations in Poland. He is a very successful coach, especially when working with younger categories. Numerous medals are also his credits. Full of great energy and knowledge, Dejan is always there to mark the talents.
Dejan Bodiroga - basketball player.
Two time's the MVP of Euroleague, MVP of World Championship in 1998. Played for Real Madrid, Barcelona, Panathinaikos.
“I was the best Dejan Srzic’s pupil. Here is why . Even when I was formed as a player I listened everything what he used to tell me because I knew that every single correction can bring me one point more. I learned a lot from Dejan during 3 years in Aris and I’m
very grateful. We stayed in touch with the same mission – connecting young people and basketball, that is what Dejan does excellent, best in Europe.
Nicos Galis - the best Greek player of all time. Member of Hall of Fame and one of the best European players of all time.
He is a professional and hard working man; He created many basketball stars, even older than him. We need more people like him in sports , high range and skilful. It is sad that his great knowledge isn’t put into one great master-piece and that he was often forced to stop working. He still lasts and he has a lot to give and show.
Zarko Knezevic - played over 200 games for Yugoslavia National Team. Won Gold medal on Euro Basket in Barselona, Silver medal on World Championship in Puerto Rico and on Euro Basket in Belgium. He also won many other personal awards.
He’s the most qualified coach. We worked together 3 years and we had great partnership in Greece. That was the time of Aris domination. He loved basketball so much that he could stay at the gym all day long. I have never seen such love. I believe we will meet again because the destiny is unknown and unpredictable. His power lies in his universality – Dejan can work equally with all categories of basketball players-from seniors to juniors.
Giannis Ioannidis - the best Greek basketball coach of all time. The recorder with 18 Greek Championship titles. Coached Aris, Olympiacos, AEK, National team of Greece.
When I was 30 years old I still had to learn a lot from Dejan, an excellent teacher. You can always learn something in basketball and I always listen Dejan’s suggestions. he’s real fanatic, very honest and it’s great minus that none of selections is in his hands for longer time.
Slobodan Subotic - formar player now a coach. Coached Panathinaikos, Olympiacos, Paok, Slovenia National Team
