Hahah came across this just thought this was kinda funny. I love jerseys of guys that aren't superstars, only true fans can respect the C's of the early to mid 90's.

Can you tell me how good he was as a Celtic?

He was good for a couple years - pretty much a 20-10 guy.  But eventually the two packs of butts per day caught up with him.....

A great role model for younger generation.  Smoke two packs a day and still play in the NBA!  This is so Eastern European for someone being a sports hero and then smoke heavily.   ;D

I thought he quit cold turkey once he came to the Celtics.

  • You know my methods, Watson.
he couldn't play defense for a lick, but he was a solid low-post scorer and a very good rebounder.  didn't have lateral movement, but his flaws were minimal.

i kinda liked the guy...he was a second round steal.  the way scouting is today, he would have NEVER slid that far in the draft.  another coup by Red and Volk.

Dino was awesome... I remember when he played on that Croation national team with Toni Kukoc / Drazen Petrovic. He definitely held his own against the original 92 Dream Team matching up against Barkley, I believe Barkley and him exchanged Jerseys or something like that.  He was a baller I still cant believe he didnt last any longer.

OK, I'm down for 5 bucks on it (current high bidder) ;D

Come on people.  We're talking Dino here!  And that thing would actually fit me.

Yup

I have a Dino jersey. I loved watching him. I also have a Starting Line-up action figure. I was bummed when Pitino cut him saying that this isn't Club Med.

after the whole failed trade to Philly thing, didn't Pitino promise Michael Cage would be in a Celtics uniform...I'm really amazed no other team gave him a shot after his release, if you can put up 20/10 in the league there should be a home for you

On a sidenote, I remember after that deal initially went through how I traded for spoon and cage on NBA Live (was it 99?) on my SNES I believe (coulda been 64, times get fuzzy) and then how dissapointed I was that I had to make the deal back - but yeah Dino was a fun guy to have around

remember his awesome tattoo of like a dolphin jumping through rainbows or something or other?

The tat sorrta looked like this:



but a lot more detail


Fun Sidenote: as I was trying to google search that tat, I came across an interesting photo of another European NBA guy who has stuck around a bit more than Dino...
