Can you win the championship? FIBA s Schroder, what level is?

The most exciting basketball event on earth has officially begun.

On the first day of the European Championships of the Men's Basketball Team, the German Men's Basketball Team beat Montenegro Men's Basketball Team 106-76.

In this game, both sides played back and forth in the first half. At the end of the half, the German men's basketball team only led by 3 points 46-43. In the third quarter, the German men's basketball team scored a 33-12 wave and took the game away directly.

As one of the leading stars of the German men's basketball team, Schroeder once again delivered a wonderful performance in this game: he clocked in in three quarters, played 22 minutes, made 7 of 13 shots, made 2 of 7 three-pointers, made 5 of 5 free throws, scored 21 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, and his plus-minus value +26 and efficiency value +20 are the highest in the team.

In the NBA, Schroder may not be a popular star. A few years ago, he was ridiculed by the crowd for a large contract, and even fell to the point where he almost had no ball to play. But in the FIBA, Schroder is a truly super killer.

Take the 2022 European Championships as an example. Schroeder led the German men's basketball team to third place. At that time, he delivered performance: 8 games, averaged 22.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 7.1 assists per game, fifth in scoring and sixth in assists.

In the quarter-finals, semi-finals and bronze medal matches, Schroeder scored 26 points and 8 assists (beating Greece), 30 points and 8 assists (losing to the final champion Spain), and 26 points and 6 assists (beating Poland).

Interestingly, before the start of this European Championship, Schroeder was still a free agent in the NBA. At that time, the free market was opened for two months, but he could not find a suitable next player.

But after the European Championships, Schroeder immediately became the pursuit of many teams. In the end, he returned to the Lakers with a basic salary and then proved himself again in the NBA.

Let’s talk about the 2023 Men’s Basketball World Cup, Schroeder’s real highlight.

In this World Cup, Schroeder led the German men's basketball team to win the championship successfully. He played in all 8 games, averaged 19.1 points, 2.0 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game, ranked 13th in points, 11th in assists, and shot a 43.5% shooting percentage.

Schroeder's performance was excellent in several key battles:

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— In the Paris Olympics last year, Schroeder helped the German men's basketball team finish fourth. In his 6 games, he averaged 17.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, and shot 45.8%/39.1%/90.0% in three games.

Don't underestimate the fourth place in the Olympics. Although the German men's basketball team in the Nowiski era won the second and third place in the World Championships, the farthest in the Olympics was not to reach the quarterfinals. Schroeder led the team to the Olympic semi-finals for the first time (the bronze medal battle was revenged by Serbia), and won the World Cup championship for the first time. As for the national team level alone, it is really not inferior to King Nothing.

It is worth mentioning that Schroeder has not only been successful in the FIBA ​​in the past two years, but his performance in the NBA has also been getting better and better. Last season, he averaged 13.1 points, 2.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 0.9 steals per game.

Schroder experienced three teams, the Nets, the Warriors and the Pistons last season. Although he did not play well during the Warriors, the Nets averaged 18.4 points and 6.6 assists + 58.8% of the game during the game, and the Pistons averaged 12.5 points and 3.7 assists + 62.5% of the game during the playoffs, and all performed very well.

This year's offseason, Schroeder also got a big contract as he wished. The Kings signed him for 3 years and 45 million. If nothing unexpected happens, he will serve as the Kings' starting point guard next season - we will remember that Schroeder had rejected the 4-year, 84 million contract given by the Lakers (Schroeder later denied this matter), and later he could only get the mini middle class. Years later, Schroeder has also won the big contract again.

Let's talk about this European Championship. The latest strength ranking is that the German men's basketball team is second only to the Serbian men's basketball team. They are in the same group as Lithuania, Finland, Sweden, Montenegro and the United Kingdom, and they are likely to qualify.

This German men's basketball team not only has Schroeder, but also Wagner Jr. (played Montenegro and scored the highest 22 points in the team), Theis and other stars. Wagner Jr. has also performed very well in recent years:

--Average 16.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game in the 2023 World Cup, and scored 22 points, 5 rebounds (played by the United States), 19 points and 7 rebounds (played by Sevilla)

——Average 18.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, and scored 18 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists in the bronze medal match

The German men's basketball team once won the European Championship in 1993, and their best result after that was the runner-up led by Nowitzki in 2005. This German men's basketball team has Schroeder and Wagner Jr., and is at its peak. Maybe it can do something this year.
