Thanks man. I thought we should have resigned him but I guess Thibs had other ideas.


First of all I hope you guys know how to turn on translation, if not go to Settings >>>Subtitles/CC >>>English , but before that you need to turn captions ON by clicking on a caption button which is like a square and comes before settings wheel button.
No offence , I am telling you this because I guess most of you guys are not used to watch videos on foreign languages


Bjelica was interviewed by Serbian local sport channel and he was asked about a basketball camp in Žarkovo (suburb of Belgrade) as well as about national team but mostly he was asked about his transfer from Minnesota to Sacramento and how all of that went through. This video is shorter version of the original video for which I will provide link below. It is trimmed to the time where Belly is mainly talking about NBA, his transfer, old and new club and off course about summer off season and this basketball camp.

I guess most of you Wolves fans will not like what you will hear.

I made this video for purpose of informing NBA basketball fans from RealGM forum , particularly for fans of Kings and Timberwolves teams.

Bjelica said other things about Serbian National team and he announced that he will be playing these approaching games.



PS

I want to inform realGM members that my next video will be one basketball game which most of you never saw before and it was played just 20 miles north of where I live. Some of the participants of that game were Stephen Curry, Patrick Beverly, DeAndre Jordan, Boban Marjanović, Miroslav Raduljica, Marković, Beasley etc...

Also I will post this video in Sacramento section of the forum too.

Yeah, I don't think he said anything bad. He basically just said he felt limited in Minnesota, which isn't exactly shocking.

Nah. We're Wolves fans. We have several decades experience with people telling us how bad we are. :D

He was limited, I think, largely by Thibs, because he wasn't one of Thibs' guys. When he got the chance to start he played very well.

Sure. And I don’t think any of that is shocking for Wolves fans to hear. He also wasn’t a great fit for our roster last year. His skills with the ball in his hands were underutilized, but we just had a ton of guys who needed the ball in their hands to be effective.
