Dusan Ivkovic, head coach of Serbian national team in meeting the EC 2013 To Slovenia for Spanish visa

It's because our job as coaches is to the expectations in Eurobasket. educate, train and produce players but we keep on Even a basketball devotee realizes that the head coach of Serbian national basketball team Dusan Duda Ivkovic is in front of a tall order. With the team he select- ed, in European Championship in Slovenia he is expect- ed not to succeed in reaching a good placement only, but to qualify for the forthcoming World Championship. It's much easier to say it than make it and Ivkovic is quite aware of that. However, he is optimistic and it's normal for his profession. The head coach speaks contentedly and proudly about the Belgrade coaching clinic. He somewhat con- siders it his child, he engaged himself from the very beginning to make the idea come true and now he is in the situation to say something about it by summarizing the several years long experience. – Thanks to the group of our coaches, the Belgrade coaching clinic quite deservedly became the most prestigious clinic in the world, primarily for its quality. In some past hard times there was a huge enthusiasm and we were wrong when we didn't ask for any help. That's my opinion. You see, during the embargo, Belgrade coaching clinic used to gather more than 1000 names! They used to come from all over the world, the entire Dallas Mavericks coaching staff for example, Greg Popovic and many others… We've been doing it all by ourselves for years, it's still that way. With tremendous efforts, we manage to offer our coaches the most qualitative clinic. The main role of the Association of Serbian Basketball Coaches is accom- plished that way, i.e. education of coaches. We've kept the highest possible quality and we expect good response of coaches.

● [ta odvaja dobrog ko{arka{kog trene- ra od vrhunskog? – Mislim da ne gre{im ako ka`em da ih razdvajaju vrhunski rezultati. Ima zai- sta mnogo vrhunskih trenera koji nema- ju kontinuitet vrhunskih rezultata. Treba odvojiti stvarala{tvo i kreativnost od vr- hunskih rezultata. Ima zaista mnogo sjajnih, vrhunskih trenera koji su stvarali i radili. Uvek navodim primer jednog ameri~kog trenera kome je re~eno: „Svaka ti ~ast, ove godine si radio naj- bolje, i osvojio si prvenstvo NCAA”, a on je odgovorio: „Ja sam stalno radio naj- bolje, ali mi je ovo daleko najbolja gene- racija igra~a”.

● Vi ste nekada u~ili od NBA trenera, od koga u~e sada mladi treneri? – Verujem da mladi treneri u~e dosta od nas iskusnih. I ne samo oni. Jedan moj prijatelj, trener u NBA, rekao mi je jednom prilikom: „Krali ste od nas, ali mnogo smo i mi krali od tebe i ostalih ve- likih evropskih trenera”. Ne sumnjam da na{i mla|i treneri poku{avaju da slede kvalitetne primere. Me|utim, {ta nedo- staje u trenerskoj edukaciji u Srbiji, gde ima, ~ini mi se, hiljadu diplomiranih tre- nera?

Svestan sam da ne mo`emo da delimo ko{arku na pola, pa da imamo trenere specijaliste za odbranu, i speci- jaliste za napad. Ali, za{to nema specija- lista za footwork, odnosno rad nogu, ili za skauting? To su neverovatno va`ne stvari u ovom poslu.

After year-and-a-half long hiatus, Karl began his nine year tenure with the Denver Nuggets, leading them to playoffs every year, but strangely making it out of the first round only once (in 2009, when they were eliminated by the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western conference finals). Last season the team won a franchise-record 57 games, despite being one of the youngest teams in NBA, and Karl was awarded his first NBA Coach of the year trophy.

A ● By age, you still belong to the group of young coach- es but you've already got the title of the best, a promi- nent success with Veroli Basket, great success with Cantu this year and Italian Supercup. Are you satisfied with the results so far? – Successes are never too much and it's too early to live from memories, Trinchieri points out.

Is there the idea of extinguishing something for the reasons of a thing that might have a chance? I'm not sure that any- body has problems with that. Beside Partizan there can be so much success and we don't have to disappear in order to make space for someone else's successes. I hope that we as the society didn't come to that point. KSSKSS 22

But, no matter what 12 players were in the team, it couldn't be felt on the court. – No matter what 12 players play, each player must give her maximum, through respecting the demands I've set. They all must realize that and there aren't any other ponderings. The one who doesn't under- stand that won't be the part of this. Even the 12th one must laugh, look nice and have the right countenance in the right moment on the bench. We're near the European Championship, it's a big deal. Instead of conclusion, Maljkovic sent a word:

– It's far from having a great play. But, the defensive energy and seriousness like this, with all the mistakes made, seems to be the foundation. It was the match which „showed” us what play the Serbian team force in France. – We had a large number of counter-attacks and we're good in such a play since our team is fast. Also, there were a lot of smarter and more rational decisions in posi- tional attack. Still, we know that we can do much more but this is the base on which Serbian team can win games. The same concept Serbia had in the last match of the tournament, against Montenegro. This time, the great play of Marina Maljkovic's selection didn't ended up by winning, though they had the last attack and a chance to change the final result. – We can only hope that Ana Dabovic's miss in the last second against Montenegro will happen different way in some more important game -Maljkovic added. In that match we saw a quite pugnacious Serbian team, fast and precise, in play against quite qualitative rival, the team which took the 6th place in the last European Championship. – There's no need to explain what team Montenegro is. It's enough to take a look at the names and last names of players and clubs where they play. Rebound was the main problem again. We must practice it, o cor- rect it by any available means. Not in a single match of the tournament in Belgrade Serbia played in the same line-up. Maljkovic changed 4 players each time. – Nothing is accidental. The number of players, the – With the tournament in Belgrade we did what we players who played certain game. Each time we had a wanted. We didn't lost time, except in the first game, that different concept of the team, in each game there was a was a wasted time.

The experi- enced coach, the coach of women cadet national team of Serbia, stated contentedly: – It's evident that there are more and more girls in all regions who would like to play basketball; we noticed that the girls, who first tried volleyball which had expansion for some time, try other sports as well, basketball is one of them. We won't stop here. We've already got ideas and plans for the next year. There are certain things in the orga- nization that should be changed and raise to a higher level. Instead of conclusion, Tir said: – There are talents, in all regions. The only thing to do is to find them. A lack of professionals might be a problem. That's why we want to force professional work in clubs, to raise it to a higher level. With all the rest, we must direct the coaching professionals the right way. mladimladi 32

In terms of condi- modest ambitions – survival. However, expectations tions, Vrsac is still an ideal place for forming top quality were exceeded since the team of Oliver Popovic was basketball players (quiet city, good accommodation only a goal-difference far from placement in the facilities, „Millennium” Center sport hall and excellent Superleague and, after a series of great victories in the coaches) but the club hasn't got funds to finance such first part of the season, the team managed to qualify for a big project on that level anymore so a number of the Radivoje Korac Kup. young players of the national team are dispersed in Despite the expectations of staying in the team of other clubs.

But, thanks to the dedication of the professionals managed to turn outsiders into the local authorities which has taken over the care of the biggest surprise of the league. The chance was given to club through Sport Association, the play of basketball in young players of average age of 21.

Anyway, the question is what will happen in the future with this club who once was a synonym for Serbian bas- ketball (women in particular) and matched the National champion Partizan and European clubs in Eurocup. The general sponsor hasn't been found yet but there's a rumor in the club that it won't disappear. The managing board has 2 months of searching for a sponsor and creating the budget for the next season and forming the team. Oliver Popovic is willing to run this team which will have big changes over the season for sure – let's see whether for the better or worse. UKTS/UKTRSUKTS/UKTRS 52

Our coaches in the FIBA seminar in Kyiv Svetislav Pesic – the chairman

or the reason of professional training and, pursuant to the Competition published in the last edition of Trener magazine, during the European f Championship for cadets in Kyiv from August 11 to 19 when the certificated FIBA seminar for coaches will take place, two young coaches from Serbia will participate: Vladimir Jovanovic from Kragujevac and Nemanja Krstic from Novi Sad. Svetislav Pesic will be the main lecturer at the coaching clin- ic and other participants will have a chance to hear and learn many things from Janez Drvaric, Pablo Laso, Luciano Lengrado, Kostas Misas, Nihat Izic and Sasa Jakovljevic who will speak about the importance of fitness training in modern basketball. Vladimir Jovanovic (33) and Nemanja Krstic (32) who, by the way, possess the red license, have fulfilled the conditions for par- ticipating in this saminar. – It's really a privilege to be in such a convention since no chance for improvement should be missed. The concept of the seminar predicts that every day begins with lectures held by emi- nent experts, followed by watching the games of the championship for cadets and, in the evening, analyses and exchanging opinions Nemanja Krsti} regarding the most interesting situations seen on the court – points out Vladimir Jovanovic, the coach who has been working with the youngest categories for almost a decade and a half, first in Radnicki BC, Zastava BC and Kragujevac BC and then in Red Star BC and Beostar BC. The young expert is quite glad for having Svetislav Pesic as the main lecturer in Kyiv. – Pesic is my paragon. The basketball played by our national team in European Championship in Istanbul and the World Championship in Indianapolis is a unique example of tough defense and creative play in offense only a few might resist. A similar opinion has Nemanja Krstic, in expecting the Kyiv seminar quite elated: – Certainly, professional improvement and comparing the pre- sent knowledge and experience with the colleagues from other countries are the primary goal. We all will certainly take advantage of the lectures and cooperation with eminent lecturers led by our expert Svetislav Pesic. LJ. M.
