Germany has been the best team in this tournament so far.

Okay smelling panic from the US now, Kerr’s job to remind the players that the Germans are for real.

Theis is not a great player, but you're not gonna find another duo playing together for longer than him and Schroeder, they can find each other with eyes closed. Underrated aspect of this Germany team.

Stop switching so much and play a bigger lineup Jesus christ. How can you watch your team get pummeled on the glass game after game and not switch it up

Because he gets injured a lot? As some poster said.. he is the anti-jokic where he doesnt play in the regular season but plays a lot in the offseason

The top teams have mostly been killing it with the efficiency. Germany was the only one with an inefficient game that moved on.

Look at all the finals winners:

Serbia Q Finals: 55% FG, 63% 2PT, 41% 3PT
Serbia S Finals: 62% FG, 71% 2PT, 45% 3PT

Canada Q Finals: 51% FG, 65% 2PT, 37% 3PT
Canada S Finals (L): 48% FG, 59% 2PT, 37% 3PT

USA Q Finals: 54% FG, 61% 2PT, 47% 3PT
USA S Finals (late 3rd): 58% FG, 64% 2PT, 53% 3PT

Germany Q Finals: 40% FG, 31% 3PT
Germany S Finals (late 3rd): 57% FG, 64% 2PT, 47% 3PT
