Well we had 15 - 20 legit medal chances before the start of the games. I know you cant win them all, but we all hoped for 10. Anyways the team sports are basically the only ones we truly care about....I would trade all 7 won so far for one in handball and basketball.
Since as a nation we focus so much on team sports this is maybe some biological maximum. Basketball, water polo, handball and soccer ( sports where we are legit top 10 teams) all take up like 20 top proffessionals each and hundreds of average athletes and we still have room for nice anount of medals in individual sports. Maybe we could have hoped for more if we had an athlete like Katinka who alone won 1/3 of all the Hungarian medals. Unfortunately we have no one with the ability to win more then 1 medal.
