The Biggest Gangster In NBA History… 

Marvin Bad News Barnes

Imagine making it all the way to the NBA just to become a criminal. He had a foolish mentality.

He isn't a criminal, he is just best friends with one of the biggest drug king pins the world has ever known... And yeah, he laundered some money, invested 100s of millions in construction etc.. cool guy 😂​@@Byrdinero-bf1sy

Guy on 7:40 with chains and tattoos is Darko Milicic brother in law. He was killed 6, 7 years ago.

You should inform a little better buddy. Your source is not that good 😂

😄

They were given a finished product. A finished product made by one and only Duško Vujošević.

@@Mr.Feanor He started playing basketball when he was 17. He had 2 years in Atlas before going to Partizan. He was extremely rough around the edges when Duško Vujošević started working with him. A regular lumberjack. He wasn't a done product by any means. Before coming to Partizan Peković didn't get to play a single game in a serious competition, against a serious competition. Atlas "discovered" him, gave him a chance, but without Partizan he would end up working as a bouncer at one of the Belgrade raft clubs, and definitely not in PAO and the NBA. Dule Vujošević was a specific type of coach. It didn't matter how old you were. You could play Euroleague at 16 or 17 years old if you're good enough. Undermining influence he had in hundreds of young players he coached is seriously disrespectful.

@@Mr.Feanor Sure sure. In fact, he'd go directly to the NBA if he skipped playing for Partizan. Working with Vujošević actually slowed him down, if anything. He was a LUMBERJACK when he came to Partizan, and that's the only truth. He was a force of nature for sure, but he was extremely raw both technically and tactically. Peković was so bad(outside his physical prowess) that Kosta Perović played as a starting center until Dule knocked some basketball sense into him. And it's not ME who said that Peković started playing at 17 years old. He said it himself. I'm sure you were blown away by his size and talent, but that was all low level basketball. Partizan was competing for regional trophies, played in the Euroleague. There's only so much a small club like Atlas can offer to a player in such a weak competition. Partizan at that time had the highest goals possible, while giving young players a fair chance. Dule had a way of working with tall guys. He let Milutinov play Euroleague before his 18th birthday. He shaped Perović, Krstić, Varda. He made Slavko Vraneš look effective, which is a feat no one managed to replicate before or after. Marić became an MVP type player in Partizan, and no one heard of him before that. He scored 2 points on average. Joffrey Lauvergne showed an incredible progress after working with Vujošević, and he became one of the cub legends. Valencia just gave him up because he was no good. Veseli got fired as an untalented garbage before Dule picked him up, changed his position and made a proper basketball player out of him. So yeah, just because someone played basketball somewhere before Dule Vujošević, doesn't mean that they would make a career without him. You SAY that's the case, but I'm willing to wager everything Vujošević did throughout his career against your word any day of the week.

@@Mr.Feanor I'm sorry, Dimitris Diamantidis. I didn't recognize you. 🤡

Yeah, but the Kratos version of Niko Belic

Nico Belic from GTA is made on a real life character (not Nikola ), a Serb who went to America, joined some gang and took it over after some time. My wife knows more about it but she sleeps, can't ask her. Maybe I'll come later to tell you more and give you some links if she still can find them

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo%C5%A1ko_Radonji%C4%87 There is the part "In popular culture In the 1998 made-for-TV movie Witness to the Mob, a depiction of the life of Sammy the Bull, Radonjić is played by Stephen Payne. Niko Bellic, the main character of Grand Theft Auto IV, may have been inspired by Radonjić due to both being Yugoslav criminals, with ties to Italian and Irish organized crime."

@@Beardman021 And Pekovic isnt a Serb? Dude learn history and geography

He changed quickly.hes Montenegrin drug dealer

Milojevic who? The guy who died recently?

@@Lymbe06 Yeah, "Serbian Chuck" was a monster.

@@lukababic5623 I believe it. However the one guy that scared the shit out of us (my team is Panathinaikos) was Marianovic. I never saw anything like it, he was straight out of the Soviet Union years when they had 200 million people to choose from and they found giants. He made Mike Batiste (a beast on his own) look like a little kid. I was so glad he went in the NBA and thought he would dominate but he became something like a mascot there. Weird.

@@Lymbe06 Hold up! You were afraid of the Gargoyle? smdh xD

@@Lymbe06 Yes. Dejan was a gipsy nightmare on basketball court.

During those dark years of Timberwolves, Pek, Love, and Rubio were a tiny glimmer of light...

Lol he is a criminal

@@televizorsamsung8517 was he sentenced by court for anything?

"In most *southern* European countries famous people become associated with mafia people. Allthough in the Netherlands some top footballplayers are doing the same. Quincy promes, Ziyech etc. Allthough in all honesty these really are the dumbewt guys out there.

​@@gerardvermaat6944Mocromaffia

Not just that he was strong, he had excellent post moves and very soft skyhook, also he knew how to move off ball to get into position.

He's like MacGregor. He's using his money to launder dirty money for the mob.

He is not a mobster, grow up

​@@KajzerSoze yea he is. After he retired, he link up with Darko Saric one of the bigest Europe cocaine drug lords. He is from same small city as Pekovic. He was stupid enough to be used for launering money through him in construction.

@@KajzerSoze u stupid

No evidence! Innocent until proven guilty!

Nisam nikada pročitao više kontradiktornosti u jednoj rečenici. Pošto ti verovatno nije poznato začenje opšte poznate reči kontradiktornost, potraži je u rečniku. Mafia members are known as people with big hearts.😂 Jeste legenda mog Partizana, ali...

Ne prdi častiti ,koje je to mafije Pekovic član

​@@vukcevicmarko6542crnogorske sa smeštajem u Beogradu .već poznato

@@vukcevicmarko6542 Ти изгледа живиш под каменом.

Add Doncic Bogdanovic Jovic Zubac Nrkic ,Bogdanovic Pokasevski Saric Teodosic and a few young players from the homeland and have an All Star game Yugoslavia vs the World , Yugoslavs vs NBA , or Yugoslavs vs Euroleague ! It would be the least FIBA could do to Honor Lil Yugoslavian Basketball for it's historic contribution to the sport !

Even Giorgi Deng doesn't mind being wiped in his back by Pekovic.

Bit of a stretch

we are one upping you both on the court and in the court :D

Being a real "Gangster" isnt necessary an accomplishment nor Cool. Tim Duncan nor Kawhi Leonard are gangsters because they've reached a level in life where its unnecessary and would be a backwards & down Grade move. Idolizing Gangsters is a childs endeavor.

​@@Peakfreud Being a gangster is extremely cool. Don't bring your girlfriend around gangsters she will get attracted to them.

@@universalconquest4447 Lol, True man. I know some gangsters that aint touched a wmn in 25yrs and wont for the rest of their lives. So meh for every one the steal, they'll spend 5yrs showering with Dudes.

Немој да лупаш. свега ти.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Јебали те гени. Људи га овде описују као гангстера и ти си одлучио да га својаташ.

Serbian nationalist singer, suppose it's little Knin's ninja

@@WesleyDTO hahahahhaa yes, you are right 😁

Yeah, when they are gangsters they are Serbs, when they are everything else they are Montengrins. National identity is so fluid sometimes..

@@Peccony94 Montenegro = Srbija Po Njegošu.

​@@kiferzablacanski dje to pise brate ne serinjaj mnogo

@@kiferzablacanskino it’s not Serbs are from Russia, learn history

@@kiferzablacanskiMontenegro is montenegro. We’re not Serbs. We’re montenegrin

Don't forget another Serbian center, Rebraca.

Yes,Dino Radja who played in 1997-99 was probably the best we had.

@@aleksthegreat4130 Nope. Rebraca in his prime 1998-2002 was better.

@@zorannedeljkovic4357 No,i think Dino was click a better player,Zeliko was great as well.

@@aleksthegreat4130 Well, with Rebraca PAO won Euroleague. Radja didn't achieve that. Both are great though.

montenegrin

@@tropickman La Montenegrenjo**

The most absurd thing ever. It's not mafia, it's the export/import family business.

Yep in all our family at last 1 is in Mafia 😂😂

they have family clans and call themselves as 'mafioso' lmfao. But in reality their familes are feuding over who stole a goat 200 years ago and where the property line should be. no mafia activities, only seljaks arguing with other seljaks.

Me too, I got it after one of his game in Litva Eurobasket

@@zomil7148 I got mine from my cousin. He played with him in Montenegro

ma ljudi pojma nemaju, pekovic nije uopste kriminalac, nego pola ovi sto grade po zlatoboru, beogradu, i u cg, peru pare preko njega

His buildings are quite good to be honest. I think 5th now is in progress..

beasts? hes unathletic average only 8 boards in 30 minutes 🤣 unathletic like all ur bum players owned by americans

We’re Montenegrin people. We’re not Serbs. But you can keep People like Pekovic. We only want people proud to be Montenegrin 😌

jokic most boring player in the league

luka got ankles took 🤣 boring player down

​@@dacdukvazda vam poštenje bilo jača strana. Pola podzemlja u BG držite vi ponosni Montenigrini a nema vas ni koliko Novi Sad ima stanovnika, toliko o tome.

Nisam znao da nismo isti narod, Srbi i Crnogorci. Osim ako ne misliš na "Montenigrine"? 🤣

These are SERBS, Pekovic is from Bijelo Polje and Darko Saric is from Pljevlja. These two cities are completely SERB and no one there support that Montenegrin identity. Both cities only became part of Montenegro in 1913. People from their resemble more Bosnian Serbs and Raska Serbs.

he's from Montenegro

​@@VeejayRampay The same people

@@VeejayRampay He's a serb from montenegro I know.

@@VeejayRampay He's a serb Watch the video the 3 finger salute is serb He's orthodox christian Serb . Your talking to 1 now

@@nenadpavlovski3841 I wouldn’t say we’re the same.

Ово говедо си нашао да својаташ. Јако је битно да сви знају да је овај деген Србин. Да се њиме китимо и поносимо.

ur dumb if u don’t think he’s involved in criminal activities rn💀

Nice try.

He is involved in buisiness deals with criminals, that is for sure but I dont think he can be called part of the mafia.

Anyone who is a President of anything is probably a criminal

​@@Ernestas23Ja Morant is a gay

The similarity is unreal. Facial features, mafia ties, overall toughness...

Nikola Belić.

Javarris Crittenton? Dude killed an innocent mother he ain’t a gangster he’s a coward

​@@ryankemplenforgot the persons name, i believe he was in that one Chicago gang. At least if my memory serves me right. Either way killing is wrong

Jason Williams played for the nets and killed a limo driver. Chance Comanche just got charged with his girlfriend for murder. I think. There’s a few more

Couse they are all parz of the same Clan.

@@kiferzablacanski my point is he can’t be the biggest gangster if he was just a front to launder money when there’s people from the league who’s actually shot people

@@Johndoe-kw5zr they are all hyped. These clans are real. Guys who is flameboyant like Ja would never been accepted in this big coke deals.

bro, just for you to undrstnd, he is kum (godfather) to Saric brothers kid! In Serbian Orthodoxy (Pekovic is Serbian from Montenegro), that is the bigest honor you can possibly receive, de facto you immediately become part of the family! now, speaking about family, Saric was arrested for 2.7 tons of cocaine, while Interpol information say they were importing 60 tons per year to Europe...now you do the math

They don't need him to launder money lol. They already had that before this dude even came to the NBA. These are already well established clans not some new comers to the game.

Zoran Erceg was a decent player, but he wasn't a center. Why would anyone compare him to Pek?

@@bmsuperstar1 Because most of journalists wanted to say that Olympiacos made greatest transfers than Pana.That time newspapers was still in market and most of them survived this way.

@@kaltsohe Classic tabloid journalism. No one pays attention to these leaches. They write what someone pays them to write.
