Congrats Germany ❤ Basketball World Champions and European Champions.
Schroder would have been great teaming up with Franz, Mo and Tristan. He is a very tough minded guard with good defensive skills and loves the moment. We couldn't afford him and I do like the fit with Tyus. Oh well, I think we might have had a chance at the deadline, but the Nets wanted too much for him.
As a German let me clarify: Franz not being the captain yet is not a topic for us or the team. There is no infighting at all. This team really is like a family and they are truly all friends. They are all locked in and do not need much leadership. Nevertheless, everybody already respects Franz as the "2nd captain" and they know that it will be his role in a few years. We all know that Franz is not a "natural born" leader, he is too quiet and introverted (the antithesis to Mo and their parents…). But he adnitted that he is actively working on those skills and that he accepts this challenge. His team mates already notice that – even Mo from his rehab home in California.
Lastly, Schröder wanted to share the MVP honors with Franz, but he refused to step up onto the stage. You see, Schröder has no problem sharing the spotlight and is actually grooming Franz to become the new captain….
On German TV, Dennis explained that without Franz the tournament would never have ended with the title and that Franz owns 50% of this MVP Award. Cheers from Germany!
Dont you guys also have Tristan da Silva now? That guy was balling for our national team too
Ö, Schröder, Ö! Görmany vs. the törks. Sörf the internet, do the sörch. Please try to lörn it, sör. Ö, Schröder, Ö! 😉 Thx, for great coverage. 🏀
Let's not forget that Tristan Da Silva was Germany's 3rd best scorer. I expect him to make a big leap this season
I have been wondering for 10 minutes why you kept talking about France. Can you please take one second to look up how to pronounce 'Franz' correctly??? Really disresepectful to butcher his name like this. Not that complicated, is it. Unless you are brain-dead. Have to stop listening. Such a degree of ignorance is unbearable.
THIS PHILIP A FANTARD OF pet5 REALLY CANT HELP TO NOT MENTION HIS PET ON HIS VLOG … BOTH OF HIM AND THIS MATT GEORGE ARE MECIA FANTARDS OF PET5 . TRYING TO COMPARE FRANZ WITH THEIR PET5 WHEN THEY KNEW FRANZ IS BETTER EVEN WTHOUT HIM. ..THAT FRANZ CAN LEAD THE MAGIC TEAM INTO WINNING STREAK WITHOUT PET5… BUT THEIR PET CANT DO IT WITHOUT FRANZ …THATS THE FACT.
Germany had to win the tournament. They were coached by IbrahiMAGIC. 😎😉
