Dejan Bodiroga Is THE REAL Shammgod 

HE PULLED LATIGO ON CARMELO EVEN BETTER. ANTHONY DIDNT KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AT LEAST JEFFERSON TRY

El Latigo! Bog!

Yes You can say he created the move, but he is not shamgod . The move was called the whip over there and here it’s the shamgod

Uhhh Shammgod is Shammgod 🙄

Shammgod is the real Shammgod. That's why it's named the Shammgod.

😂😂😂😂he has more then enogh Highlights

good point

the vid is more usefull for those who are unaware of european bball..so, basically americans..so the foot-inch thing makes it lil' easier, more familiar and comfortable with for them..a place like home

The language of basketball is English American, as a hater of that system it's correct to use that. NBA talks in foot and inches and he's talking to Americans with this video.

Nah The best player that never played in the NBA has to be Nick Galis

I swear. That 2002 final was when I found out who Bodiroga was, and what he could do at a FIBA ​​level was insane. The way the Yugoslavian team got on his back to turn the game around.... Incredible. Luckily we had 2004 as revenge.

Oscar Schmidt

Jerwin Gaco is the best ,, Gaconatics

I'm a maccabi fan and I 100% agree.. he used to kill us

In Barcelona we know too

He's quite well known to basketball fans in Bulgaria too.

"My mamy swojego boga, na imię jest mu Bodiroga" in my language :D

Americans will never trust the opinion that he's the best European player because he chose to not play against the best players consistently to prove it. Especially back in his time overseas basketball didn't compare to NBA. It's closer now but back then there was a bigger divide.

@@manegrindshard did you watch European basketball at that time?

@@thomasarnal nobody did and that’s the point I’m making. It’s easy to say someone is the best but if it wasn’t shown regularly against the best players at the time nobody will believe it.

@@manegrindshard Jesus…maybe you guys in the US weren’t paying attention but that’s ok. This is why I don’t talk European ball with you guys, too self centred.

@@thomasarnal lol 😂stop it, that would be like someone in the US claiming to be the best football "soccer" player and they never touched foot overseas where the best of the best play. Everyone knows the best competition isn't in the US for that sport so the same goes for basketball.

Serbia and Lithuania... European basketball Gods

HE IS FUNDAMENTAL MOST SKILLED PLAYER HE RARE TRAVEL AND CAN PIVOT FROM BOTH FEET EQUAL ONLY OTHER PLAYER I SAW THAT SKILLED IS GRANT HILL PRIOR INJURIES. BOTH CAN COTROL BALL WITH BOTH HANDS IN POST EQUAL, SPIN ON ANY SIDE THE SAM, AND PIVOT DROP STEP OR UP AND UNDER WAS AMAZING.

@@kemba4965 Bro, Danko Cvjetićanin used that crossover in the '80s, there's a video of him doing that move in 1986 Euroleague final. Originator of that dribble was another player from ex-Yugoslavia, Dragan Kićanović who played during 70s.

@@markomarkovic5729 Sometimes I think we try to put the first person do something as their move vs the person who made it mainstream. I PERSONALLY prefer to pay homage to a move of the first person to do it. HOWEVER, I can understand why certain moves are tied to a player who made it mainstream. Take the actual Jumpman emblem on Jordan's That move wasn't done by Jordan first but we associate the Jumpman with Jordan as it is also his iconic Dunk from the Free Throw Line...Even though Jordan isn't the first to do the Dunk from the Free throw line...That is Dr. J as far as I know...but Jordan is the one who get's the most credit.

I agree we were doing these moves in the 70’s and 80’s but not able to use them as they were called hot dogging, showboating. We have been doing them sorry Europe

Shampoo is named after the person that created it SHAMGOD ! Not this dude

Very true, most moves come instinctively so they get developed everywhere

Well said

In the Phillipines, we call the eurostep as the side step back in the 80's..

So this move should not be called a EuroStep

I agree with you on this one.

Not trying to stereotype but I doubt 1990’s Brooklyn Shammgod was watching Euro Basket League trying to steal moves. It's his move.

facts

Exactly the motions do not look the same. We get Europeans can hoop but dude stop

@@mattmcrae1458 lol...facts...I mean how can some highschool kid in 93 even get access to videos of Euro basketball? I am sure it's possible, but not probable.

Exactly I watched Rod Strickland do it and get called for a travel wasn't no Euros in the league in the 70s and 80s and there's videos of Magic doing it.. idk why people be so desperate to take credit for shit they didn't do. Cats got all these moves and all these skill innovations and still be getting blown out make it make sense

Back in the 70s we would’ve been called for carrying the ball. And the eurostep, I used to do something like that as I was slow af on my way to a layup and the guys guarding were so off balance and I got called for a traveling violation. And the next 5 minutes we were arguing that it wasn’t traveling and all that. Never would’ve imagined that 20 years later those two moves coming out of lack of athleticism are now NBA go to moves. And no, don’t take it as if I am claiming that I invented them. Just to show you that many of today’s basketball moves that awe fans are pure old school stuff.

No body did the move. If bringin the ball from opposite hand was the only part of the move everybody did it. Shamgod pushed the ball then pulled it.

@@bbkingme8831 What? Decipher it please.

@@VGYugo a crossover existed b4 Allen Iverson. But Iverson made the stutter and hesitation while pushin out the ball then pulling it back. U can find 1000000 ppl who did the crossover b4 Iverson but it's not the same. Jus like the shammmgoddd. He does a skip, pushes the ball out, leans, then pulls it back. Same move but totally different. The harden step back. Been done b4. But harden does it different. How dont u get it. In the 70s 80s. Players did finger rolls. In the mid 2000s. Kids from ny created jelly. Same move. But different. I get u love ur country , overseas basketball players. But all the fancy dribblin dunkin etc all came from the hood. The guys in the ghetto. Then the world imitates. Same with clothes, music, slang, everything. The reason u dress how u do is because of hood drug dealer teenagers from ny and philly pa in the 80s. They created it. Look it. Research. Google it. 1980s ny philly drug dealers

@@bbkingme8831 What’s there to get? You just wrote all that to reference a drug dealers and how they were dressing back in the 80’s. Pretty much saying that everyone else after them copied there style exactly the same way these 2 Yugoslavian players were the first to do the move everyone afterwards copied it. Maybe they put their lil spin in it but we know who did the original move. Sagging pants is definitely something that should not be copied but just simply banned. Grown ass man should not have their underwear hanging out. Europe has a lot of their own moves that they use and they do not come from the hood. Also every language around the world has its own version what they call here slang or dialect.

​@@VGYugolet him dreaming about USA influence..poor soul, probably don't know to point where is Europe on the globe, like most americans..

Nope. He looked slow, but his dribble was very fast.

Definitely… ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jZaL_SZhMPk.html And there’s not even much Pistol Pete footage available! Plus, dribbling rules were much stricter back then…

Shammgod said he didn't do it until the 97 game against Arizona on accident..

I was jus about to say that

@@boogsaysfuckutube32 that’s a lie… i’ve watched him play before he even got to providence he was doing it way before then

@@boogsaysfuckutube32 as for the world to see on tv

These Euros are full of royal sh!!!!..... That Euro move is NOT the Shamgod! Anyone that saw him do this in the park knows that combination of the fast footwork is UNBELIEVABLE!!!! I Call BS on these Euros.

actually this move is common move in newbie leagues, its out of balance dribble to side, i use to do this when i was kid :D of course this is world class players so they dont expect this basic move to done in such way

@@NostalgicMem0ries In Serbia is common in all the leagues, but only the great masters can do it properly, do you even know who Praja and Kica were?

@@BubaIGunga im too young to see them live but ive seen some old footages, dalipagic is legendary name that is no question about it, even here in lithuania we know him. i just said that this move is pretty common here too, ive seen it many times in my yard where our neighbour pros played in 80s 90s. i myself done that without knowing its history. also claiming move to be yours is funny, cause maybe someone did that in 50s 60s in other country or even earlier, ive seen some crazy footages of 1936 39 eurobaskets few players did similar moves, not quite like that but similar.

@@NostalgicMem0ries nobody claims it that's a Serbian move, I'm just claiming that Kica and Praja especially Kica did it before Cvjeticanin and Bodiroga, evem Petrovic did it occasionally, it's stupid to claim it as a Shamgod's move. But for sure Bodiroga did it often than most of european players, and Kica and Praja did it differently than Bodiroga or today's players like Chris Paul, because different travelling rules. Maybe someone before them did it, and I'm not claiming that they're the first, but that the guys in Serbia that saw that move saw it of them.

@@BubaIGunga with this statement i can agree 100%

Don't forget Oscar Schmidt.

Lmao

I 've seen him play, when team needed points they just passed him. That simple. The definition of tripple threat.

He said himself that he learned that move by watching players in ex-Yugoslavia. Danko Cvjetićanin used it a lot in the 80s, but Bodiroga perfected it.

@@markomarkovic5729 Source? and the moves have different purposes as-well

@@zxv7655 Source for what? Bodiroga's statement? He said that million times

They’re two different moves though. If you compared them side by side you’d see a difference. Also shammgod was in high school in the late 80s and 90s how was he supposed to know there was a European player doing it. I say we give credit to both but don’t let one overshadow the other.

So, u did not chear for Yugoslavia against the Americans?

Manu Ginobili started to use that move after losing 2 finals against Bodiroga in 2002

@@markomarkovic5729sham started using that as a child in harlem at the rucker

@@qdigggs I gave the specific example of Manu Ginobili and how he started using the move. Dejan Bodiroga started using this trick in the early 90s by watching older players in the former Yugoslavia. There's a video of Danko Cvjetićanin where he uses that move back in 1986, just type "El Latigo 1986" - that trick is called El Latigo (whip in Spanish) in Europe, and Dragan Kićanović used it back in the 70s.

@@markomarkovic5729 i gave you a specific example how sham started it ...rucker park was called the ebc classic that was broadcast on tv also they have videotape footage 😎..also the old aba showed plenty of moves for everybody to steal and then claim as their own 😌 ..bottom line they dont do it like sham

@@qdigggs Bro, Shammgod wasn't even born when Kićanović used that feint and he was just a kid when Danko Cvjetićanin, Saša Danilović, Zoran Sretenović used it. He wasn't even in college when Dejan Bodiroga started using that crossover, which he used several times against Team USA in the 1996 Olympic finals until Karl Malone injured him.

There are players who used that same crossover in the 80s, so no...

did his team win the game?

@@spenser6353 yes

Hahaha dude, that was the most epic moment in basketball. Miller was so confused. Bodiroga showed how much he cared about the real Dream Team

It was Reggie Miller though, one of the thinnest NBA players ever lol

Actually... Duško Vujošević was doing that in Partizan with Stephane Lasme in 2008/09 season - the season when he won Gomelsky award - to this day the only coach to win the award in a season in which he didn't win the Euroleague title. There's a reason for that: small forward (Jan Vesely, 213 cm) was taller than power forward (EL Rising Star Novica Veličković, 205 cm), and PF was taller than center (Stephane Lasme, 201 cm). Point guard was Milenko Tepić (203 cm), who in those years was expected to become the new Bodiroga. After that season, he went to Željko Obradović's Panathinaikos, but unfortunately he never fulfilled his full potential, and he didn't do well in the fierce competition of Jasikevičius, Diamantidis and Spanoulis.not lead a team to the title of

The Lakers had Magic Johnson start at center during the '80 finals. So that's a small ball lineup way before the European coaches thought of it :)

It's not called Dragan Kićanović. Spaniards call it El Latigo, Americans Shammgod, while others call it Yugoslav crossover. We were doing that since the 70s.

Bodiroga played in slow motion but the thing is, he was rarely stopped. Similar as Luka Doncic, he is far from being the fastest in the league and yet poses the great threat

Exactly and to be honest ShammGod has way more grace, style, and finesse doing the move.

Nikad luka nemoze biti kao bodiroga

Yup! Elgin… then you also had Dr J, David Thompson, Magic, Sidney Moncrief, Jordan… pulling similar stuff. So, yeah…

Bruh, that's my point as well. Shamgod did this move in damn near the late 80's!

@@Wassupdun I’m from Oakland and I learned about Shamgod in 95 with no internet. They don’t get it 😂

The difference in pivot foot, right?

Different players.... Stojakovic had better career overall, and was a better shooter by a mile... Bodiroga was more diverse and creative though....

@@Shiljamannn Oh God Bodiroga by far better career 2x World Champion 3x European Champion 3x Euroleague Olimpic finale Bronze '99 6-7 Championship Spain, Greece, Italy Stojakovic 1 NBA ring( as bench guy with 8 points), 1x World Champion and 1x European Champion Stojakovic played for national team only to his 26 years and he was great in NBA in only 3-4 years Bodiroga has about 20 titles, Stojakovic only 4-5

@@milosjovicevic6083 Stojaković struggled with injuries since 2005/06 and was never the same since that. He was a fantastic shooter and a great scorer overall, but was below average passer and rebounder. Bodiroga was versatile and had a perfect technique and basketball IQ. He was a clutch player and go-to guy in the national team, with Stojaković on the court. Stojaković choked more than once.

When Donatas will be back from Las Vegas. He is in Summer League.

Jokic sends regards

Don't be disrespectful, be thankful

Dejan Bodiroga used it on Karl Malone in 1996 Olympics final😂 He later injured Bodiroga and told him "This is because you are making a fool of me in front of my fans". Anyway, Danko Cvjetićanin was doing that in the mid-80s, and some claim that Dragan Kićanović used the same crossover in the 70s.

What is a hilerous?

@@arkadiuszrogala1359 a misspelled word.

Strong point, i agree.

yeah, i also think he developed it independantly and thats why i have no problem americans calling it shamgod, while here in balkans we call it bodiroga. but the claim that he made the move more iconic is very subjective and linked to your geographical position.

Shammgod just learned to use potty when players from ex-Yugoslavia did that move. Here you go, video from 1986: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v6fARNx8yTk.html

Dejan started using that dribble in the early 90s. Danko Cvjetićanin used it in the 80s, some other players also used it, like Predrag Saša Danilović, but the first player who used that particular dribble in Europe was Dragan Kićanović in the 70s. Cvjetićanin actually started his career in Partizan the same year Kićanović played his last season there, so he probably picked up that move from him.
