  • Dražen Petrović: La Leyenda Del Indomable
    Amado y odiado con la misma intensidad y en proporciones muy parejas, Dražen Petrović ha terminado siendo mucho más que un simple jugador de baloncesto. Su presencia en la cancha, sus provocaciones continuas y su personalidad le convirtieron pronto en un líder. Los avatares de su vida deportiva (jugó en el Madrid después de haber sido su verdugo) y su prematura muerte a los 28 años en un absurdo accidente de coche, cuando estaba en el mejor momento de su carrera deportiva, triunfando en los Nets, hacen que hoy su recuerdo forme parte de la leyenda. Por eso es uno de los grandes mitos del deporte en general y del baloncesto en particular. Juan Francisco Escudero Dražen Petrović: La leyenda del indomable ePub r1.0 Banshee 02.06.14 Título original: Dražen Petrović: la leyenda del indomable Juan Francisco Escudero, 2012 Diseño de cubierta: Inma Bordell Editor digital: Banshee ePub base r1.1 Este libro va dedicado a mi familia, amigos, amantes del deporte del baloncesto y, por supuesto, a Pilar y a la pequeña Alexandra. Gracias a Álvaro Chávarri y Diego Moldes por la aportación de datos y fotos. A Iván Fernández por sus ideas sobre el capítulo de declaraciones. Ta la embajada de Croacia. También, y especialmente, a todos los genios transgresores que fueron olvidados por el paso del tiempo y la aparición de los mediocres… Prólogo LOLO SAINZ UANDO Juan Francisco Escudero Centró en mi despacho del estadio Santiago Bernabéu hace aproximadamente un año para pedirme que le hablara de Drazen Petrovic porque tenía la intención de escribir un libro sobre su vida, un inmenso escalofrío recorrió mi cuerpo, ya que en un instante se agolparon en mi mente todos aquellos momentos vividos alrededor de este genuino y genial jugador de baloncesto —hago mención especial del deporte que practicaba, por todos ustedes conocido, porque Drazen, desde el cielo, no me perdonaría jamás que no nombrara junto a su nombre el gran amor de su vida, el baloncesto—, desde el prisma de jugador contrario y como jugador del Real Madrid, por aquel entonces entrenado por un servidor de ustedes.
