I started playing basketball in Germany more than 40 years ago. Sentences like "Germany beats Serbia" or "Germany wins against the USA", and likewise "Germany is basketball world champion" have only been formulated as utopia and wishful thinking in all these decades. As good as the current team obviously is, I could only believe in the title when it was realised.

As someone who grew up in germany i can tell this is all the conclusion of dirk nowitzkis sacrifice for the development of the sport of basketball in germany. All of the players from the wc team grew up in the early 2000 seeing that tall blonde guy playing some unusual sport somewhere over there in the US. He really made basketball cool in germany, put his money and the money of his sponsors into the infrastructure in german basketball and showed up for the sport with his face and name! Big congrats to Dirk for this championship-title too. Well done

The most important person is the coach. He built a team that sticks together no matter what happens. Plus his insane tactic knowledge and his ability to let everyone in the team know that he is really important, no matter how many minutes he gets. Great human being, great coach ❤️

@@KingHalik also true... in the end i would say the very professional and long term vision of the team structure of that decade designed by Coach Herbert and his fundamental entitlement of Dennis Schröder as the clear leader of the team is the key... Herbert put Dennis in a highly responsible position where he had to grow to fill it out and push himself and his teammates to that success. and to be fair... Dennis somehow needed this respectfull push to realize his own responsibility. and i guess that this process of maturing of Dennis was not free of conflicts and some noise (regarding nomination of Kleber and Schröders exceeding of competence for example).

They have no such leadership now (Dončič is not it, too immature ) and a distinct lack of big players. Germany on the other hand has their main people either in their prime or very young.

I am not a huge expert in basketball. But the matches were very thrilling. And i can understand why so many people likes basketball. Its a very fast game, and all matches are intense. The Best Thing is, that Dennis Schröder is so good and the leader of the germany team, even he has not the normal size of a basketball player. I like him. He is a great guy with a big personality.

Coach Herbert was the main thing that made the difference. He holds the attention of the guys and has their respect because he is a fair person who gives everyone their respect too, but also holds everyone accountable. His calm demeanour and way of letting his words sink in, seems to keep the players focused on the basic things they want to achieve. Without him, this group would have probably faltered alot more in close games, like they used to in the past. But they have shown so much growth in such a small period of time already, I can only look to the future with the anticipation of great things. The olympics are coming up, and tbh I am not afraid of facing a team USA allstar roster with this group of players and their excellent coaching staff.

One of the best games I've watched. Almost no mistakes on either end of the court from either team, some amazing individual plays, but more than anything, impeccable team play. Abramovic and Petrusev were balling. Also Bogdanovic. But so were Schröder, Wagner and Voigtman. I think he missed that layup at 8:25 because he failed to float it more, good defense.

What a great and worthy finale for the world cup, I was at the rim of a heart attack at the last quarter. Thanks to both 🇩🇪❤🇷🇸 for this epic fight!

Germany is such a great team, with great players in every position and very fun to watch! But I think the Serbian team, with joker and micic, would be another thing, very difficult to beat. Let's see what will happen at the Olympics. I hope the Serbians play there with a full team, and let's hope the same for my national team, Greece.

The twice missed shots from No.23 of Serbia in the last 21 seconds or so while Germany was ahead by just 3 points only and he missed passing the ball to his team mate spells the difference. This is actually the game of basketball. Congrats to both team for reaching the finals. You are all champions especially Germany.

As a German I'm very happy (and surprised) with the Worlc Cup, but i don't see a dominance coming up. There are so many great nations out there and Germany could have lost in the Quearters in the final second. They have a resiliant and versatile team, but so have others. What I loved about the World Cup that it has a real high quality and was not just "Entertain Basketball" like the NBA.

They deserve all the love in the world. In the 4th Quarter they literally had me standing and screaming at my TV lol. I'm already so hyped for the Olympics next year!

such a great game, so deep, so many nice plays. am i surprised germany won it all. yes definetly. we won bronze last summer, but that felt a bit like an outlier. turns out it wasnt. But then, germany isnt exactly known for its bball teams. Hopefully it changes, since football is on an all time low in germany.

We won't dominate, but yeah we have a good chance to compete for the foreseeable future. Hopefully we can build up from that to truly establish a succesful basketball culture.

Proud of schröder (I think that’s how you spell it)

the Win, on the day 8 years after Dirks last game for Germany. a new era.

Im actually looking forward on how they going to play next year during the Olympics.

As a Serbian, Germans were just better, they scored easier, and played their game. However, it should be noted that Schroder's 3 free throws were an offensive foul (Avramović touched only the ball, while he kicked him), and also Petrušev offensive foul was a 2+1 play EASY, since the German player was moving at full speed into him. Still, we had our chances so we can't really complain. We also missed at least 3 clear lay-ups, and gave away several turnovers without any real pressure, and that was it. Congrats to Germany, you have a great team.

Is it true that Germany's core have been playing together since 2015... even as under 16 players... no secret to why they won. Talent and Connectivity.

I was hating on Dennis, when saw him argue with the coach, but wow, he ran his heart out.

Been years in the making. Before Eurobasket then now peaking at the WC. Germany will compete for years to come, but i dont see them dominating Europe like Spain in the last decade and a half.

this season is very entertaining!!!! why every 4 years FIBA? cant this be a yearly thing??? THIS IS LIT!!!!!

There is als the European Cup every 4 years, so you only need to wait 2 years. Additionally, Olympia exists, so you can watch national teams play at high stakes almost every year 🎉

This is Basketball World Cup, it only happens every 4 years.

Love the thumbnail! 🤣😂

well done, great summary

Legendary performance by Deutschland!!!!❤🎉🎉🎉

btw Voigtmanns V is called like an F so its more ike Foctmann

"This Germany Team Is Just Starting Its Dominance.."...That's what they said about the German football (soccer) team too after they dominated the 2014 World Cup. We all know how this ended and where they are now. It's sports. Anything can happen.

I’m German, but I’m not a basketball fan. But I’m an icehockey fan and seeing Germany winning gold the World Cup reminds me of the IIhf World Cup, where we won silver. The last time we won a medal in icehockey is nearly 50 years ago and now we beated the USA and gave Canada a good fight. It feels like Germany is getting more decent and more balanced in different sports.

Dennis is the heart and soul of the German Team! He dictates everything. Congrats Germany! World Champion!

I love watching these fiba games. So competitive- teamwork. Is it bad to say better than watching the nba? 😅

Feels so good to be a german basketball fan right now! But Aleksa really got robbed on that DP award.

Let's see if Germany keeps the momentum in a similar way Spain has done the last 17 years. Right now they have the potential, but the public doesn't seem to be supportive enough. I live in a big German city and you didn't see any single person celebrating publicly in the streets yesterday... (unlike to football). If my home country Greece were winning the basketball WC people would go extatic in the streets. :P

Great final. I hope the Serbian team is 100% healthy and have all of their very best players including Jokic when the Olympics comes. That could make for a very awesome and exciting potential rematch.

VOIGTMANN is pronounced like the fashion magazine (Vogue) but with an F at the beginning.

8:40 watch this with 0.5 Speed, feel the drunk youtuber and the lightspeed of Schröder... xD

Dominance. I dont think so. We have nearly been executed in the Quarter-Finals against Latvia and did lost in the Semi-Finals against Spain last year. But if everybody is on board we are now a powerhouse in Europe. But is still a very small community here. Even our TV did not present the games of our team or our league

Germany dominated. They dont have losses, 8-0, basketball world champion. Latvia is a great team. They beat Canada and eliminated Spain.

As a german football fan... the comparison hurts ngl...

Are there any videos that breakdown Serbia’s defense that forces teams left?!
