Germany Team News

The German national team showed the most of all the teams at this championship and they are deservedly in the final and the fight for the trophy and the gold medal. This is certainly their biggest success so far, and so far in their history they have only one medal, a bronze, When led by Dirk Nowitzki they reached third place in Indianapolis, and the team of Serbia, then Yugoslavia, won the trophy. Now there is a new and modern German selection on the floor, the foundations of which were laid by Svetislav Pesic, who was the coach of Germany for a long time.

Germany is the only team in this championship that does not have a single defeat, and in the final, they will try to continue that and crown their great game with a trophy. In the first phase, they immediately let everyone know that they could go all the way. In the duel with Japan, they were without Franz Wagner, who is one of the best players, but even without him they defeated dangerous Australia and Finland, then Georgia and Slovenia, and reached the quarter-finals against Latvia. The Germans are a team that plays in both directions in an excellent rhythm. They are one of the teams that play the best defense as well as the best attack. Against Latvia, Franz Wagner returned and showed all his qualities, but they still depended too much on Dennis Schroder, who is the team’s alpha and omega. Schroder played one of the worst matches of his career against Latvia. He shot an abysmal 4/26 from the field and brought his team to the brink of relegation. In that match as well as in the match against the USA, it was seen that Dennis has no middle ground in the game, either he is superb or he is desperate.

They played the best match of the tournament against the USA in the semi-finals and eliminated the “dream team”. In a real NBA rhythm, they beat the Americans 113-111. Three players scored 20+ points for Germany. And the biggest surprise and the best player in the match was Andreas Obst, who scored 24 points added 6 assists, and hit a three-pointer when the match was breaking. In addition to Obst, Franz Wagner showed himself with 22 points and Thies with 21 points. On a couple of occasions, the Germans managed to raise their defense to a higher level and go to a +10 difference, which was crucial in the end. In the last few minutes, the Americans picked up the pace increased their aggressiveness, and very quickly went from -12 to -1. However, tactically, the Germans played smart and won this match with points from Obst and Schroder.

Against Serbia, they are expecting a very different match, where Serbia pays a lot of attention to the defense and defends the transition very well, as well as shooting from a distance.

Serbia Team News

After 2014, the Serbian national team is returning to the finals of the World Cup and they have a chance to win a record sixth title. They came to the championship with a very weakened team, without Nikola Jokic, who is currently the best basketball player on the planet. But in addition to Jokic, there were not a few other very important players for the game of Serbia. First of all, Vasilije Micic is missing, who has been the best playmaker in Europe for many years. Also, Kalinic, Lucic, Pokusevski are missing.

Serbia played the first part of the championship quite variablely. They struggled a lot in the duel with Puerto Rico, where they disappeared from the floor in the second half, but they were good enough to win. However, big variations in the game and empty minutes came to be paid for in the match against Italy, where they spilled a 16-point difference and were defeated by the Italian selection. That defeat and the injury to Borisa Simanic further united the Serbian national team, who started playing with maximum focus. The situation was particularly dramatic in the case of Borisa Simanic, who was left without a kidney after the duel with South Sudan, and his life was in danger. He is an additional motivation for the Serbian national team to prepare and play as well as possible.

After the match with Italy, in the match with the Dominican Republic, which directly decided the quarter-finalist, they showed all their strength. First of all defensive. After the victory over the USA, Lithuania was full of confidence and in a great rhythm, but Svetislav Pesic’s team gave them a real basketball lesson in the quarterfinals. The Lithuanian national team is limited to only 68 points. It was similar in the semi-final against Canada, where Serbia controlled the match from the first to the last minute, and the Canadians could not respond to the intensity and pressure exerted by the Serbian national team.

Against Lithuania and Canada, Bogdan Bogdanovic played like a real leader, taking responsibility and hitting, and playing with his teammates. Nikola Milutinov is a real tower under the basket, and he once again showed that he is NBA-caliber. First, he dominated Valanciunas and then Powell and Olynik, who looked totally powerless next to him. Special mention should be made of Aleksa Avramovic, who steals “live” balls from defenders of opposing teams. He drove SGA crazy, who was more on the bench than in the game in the first half. In addition to Avramovic, Dobric also plays well defensively, and he had a huge offensive contribution against Canada.

All Serbian players have their role and they all get a certain amount of minutes. That breadth and team spirit are Serbia’s greatest qualities. They had a few more hours to rest than Germany, which can play a big role in this match. Also, coach Pesic has already won this trophy and has experience that can be crucial in this match.

Germany vs Serbia Prediction

Germany played a fantastic match against the USA where they hit almost everything, and they also experienced a great emotional and physical drain. They ran with the USA for 40 minutes, and they have 4 hours less recovery time than the Serbian selection, which plays with more players in rotation than Germany. We think that Serbia wins this match, primarily because of defense and rhythm control, as well as the possibility to match Germany physically. Also, Serbia has a coach on the bench who has already won major competitions and has enormous experience.
