So, Germany won. Same NBA style. The only difference Dennis didn't shoot 4/26.

Serbia the bridesmaid once again. Tough not to have your A game in a winner take all but credit to Germany for an incredible tournament.

Did they finish it undefeated?!

Nice to see this much emotion (both ways) in the finals.

Last world cup final were two teams dragged there by Ricky RUbio and Facundo Campazzo... Congrats Germany.

Congratulations Germany. Very happy for Daniel Theis. What a strange final. Highly effective first half by both teams. Awful second half, specially for Serbia.

I watched like 8-9 games this world cup. I think refereeing was quite bad overall. In the final for sure it was.

Germany got some bad calls, but Serbia definitively did. 2 unsportmanlike plays, refs review, see "nothing" (lol) Germany goes unpunished. Schröeder a rather "mean" one, goes unpunished. Deciding play of the game, Schröeder carries the ball in a very clear way. Unnoticed. Game.

Serbia was really bad on offense in the second half, but refereeing played definitely a factor. Congrats Serbia and Canada as well.

So happy for this team. Build them a statue. Especially happy for Voigtmann, Dennis, Theis, Obst etc. after all those years busting their asses off for the national team.

Serbia with a full roster wins this world championship. That said, Germany really established itself as one of the best teams in Europe and the world.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Shoutout to Serbia, though. They showed great passion and fought as a team despite adversity. Played fantastic team basketball, especially in the knockout stage. Offense just went cold at the worst possible time, even though the German defense also had something to do with that. They're hurting right now but they can hold their heads up high with pride.

American players really have no taste. How is Zion impregnating scraps while Dennis Schröder has a wife like that.
