Bogdanovic: “Serbian fans are unbelievable”

Fenerbahce is traveling to Belgrade this week and Bogdan Bogdanovic does not hide his excitement in his blog in the EuroLeague official site.

As the Serb guard writes:

We are going back to Belgrade to play Crvena Zvezda mts. I am saying “going back” because some of us are Serbian or have lived there. It is a special day for us. Last year we played on January 8, which is around Serbian Christmas and this year we will play the day before the Serbian New Year, which is on Friday. It is a special day for us and a good moment to play against them. Also, Zvezda is is very good shape – the gym would be full anyway even if they were not, but now that Zvezda is fighting to make it to the playoffs, their fans will be ready to help them even more. Serbian fans are great, unbelievable. They follow their club even when they are terrible but even more when they are doing well.

So, a lot of us live in Belgrade, plus Jan Vesely has a Serbian girlfriend – he doesn’t live in Belgrade now, but needs to come from time to time! – and Pero Antic played in there some years ago. Zeljko, Kalina (Nikola Kalinic) and me live there. It is a very special moment and we are really excited. Of course, we talk about Partizan and Zvezda all the time. It is not 50-50, I have to say: me, Jan, Zeljko and assistant coach Vladimir Androic are Partizan while Pero, Kalina and conditioning coach Predrag Zimonjic are Zvezda. Every time one of us wins, they tell the other group. It is normal, like in every country – OK, well, maybe we go a little bit further.
