We will see each other on July 12 when the father of basketball NJ#15 comes from Serbia. We'll see if you'll be looking forward to it this much. It's easy with the Turks right now, this game means absolutely nothing to them.
This is a warm-up game. Turkey didn't even qualify for the world championship in 2023, where most of the spots on the olympic tournament were awarded, nor for one of the 4 mini tournaments, where the last 4 spots are played for. Hence they are available for some tune-up for the french national team.
@@maartenvz Embiid is not needed. Whenever Rudy Gobert retires, a frontcourt of Alexandre Sarr and Victor Wembaynama is in store for France, going forward.
Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert is just the beginning. In the future, when Rudy Gobert retires or moves on from playing professional basketball internationally and/or in the NBA, a frontcourt of Alexandre Sarr and Victor Wembanyama (which has the potential to become more dominant than the current frontcourt combination of Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert for France) awaits France. A frontcourt of Alexandre Sarr and Victor Wembanyama will be an absolute defensive nightmare for opposing frontcourts to go up against.
@@mftb6more so just crazy they were 2nd in assists and could’ve hit him so many more times. Didn’t start throwing him the lobs til after all star break. Chris Paul might lead the league in assists next year
GO SPURS GO JUST CHECKING IN ON OUR GUY! He has gotten faster and has definitely added muscle. I’ve seen all of our championships and I look forward to the future of this team. Wemby, CP3 (maybe as a coach), Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle, even Harrison Ingram all those guys. This is a great time for Spurs Fans everywhere.
I don’t know I know they’ve been consistent all especially in the NBA it would be great to see if they are able to prove themselves when it comes to the international stage
@@Jaouenyannick they don't have the same defensive impact as the Celtics, plus: it's Steve Kerr coaching, the worst defensive coach ever. Team USA will win with scoring, as always, that's how they've beaten France in the Olympics final twice, even with a strong french defense. I still do not understand how they've been able to not put Jaylen Brown in this team, he's been brilliant not only in the finals but all the regular season too ! he's way better than leFool now... we french people remember what it cost us to put an old Zidane on the pitch in 2006 soccer world cup: we lost the final, and the pool games were a nightmare for him, he made 2 very good games vs Spain and Brazil, and Italy pretty much locked him in defense with Materazzi. When the intensity goes up in defense Lebron James proved recently to be out of breath vs the Nuggets in the playoffs. USA Basketball wants to make the Olympics look like a tour d'honneur for Curry, Durant and Lebron, that's arrogance first, and really not a good idea with Serbia already in group games.
@@Jaouenyannick All players on the Celtics knew their role and executed it perfectly. A whole team full of superstars who haven't played a role since they came into the leauge is not the same thing. It's not about individual talent. It's about how they play together.
Imagine this future starting five for France in international tournaments: PG: Nolan Traoré SG: Bilal Coulibaly SF: Zaccharie Risacher PF: Alexandre Sarr C: Victor Wembanyama I don't know about you, but to me, that is a walking international basketball dynasty. With the above starting lineup, I see France becoming a future dynasty in the international basketball scene looking ahead. L'excellence de la France!
The spurs coaching staff should send this highlight video to each of the spurs player, escially to Jeremy Sochan and Champagnie asap. I know it was not intentional hating from player of the spurs, but it's maybe worse in a certain way what they did to wemby last year. Stop the bullshit argument that they did not play together, or they are young, they are nba players receiving maybemore than some of the pro you see in this video, and in this video they trained like what ? 1 week together ?
Nando is a true marvel, but Evan Fournier was clearly lost. I think the starting 5 will be Nando, Nadir Hifi (best defensive guard yesterday), Bilal, Batum, and Wemby, with the option to switch Batman for Rudy if they need more paint presence. Either way that's a scary team on both ends of the court.
Wembayana is probably going to be the greatest player Ever. It’s one thing to be this tall and move with as much grace but to have the vision and iq to make these passes be able to shoot and handle this is cheating
Rudy at the 5, Wemby at the 4 and Yabusele at the 3. I've never seen a frontcourt like that in the last decade at least. And with the FIBA rules they can live in the paint so who's gonna score against this French team and how do you defend that?? 😂😂😂 Love basketball and the Olympics 🏀 🏀 from Italy🇮🇹🇮🇹
The only way is too outscore at the 3 pts line. Guess they got Kerr as a coach this is no coincidence. I hope that France or even Germany can win it all.
@fan2hd277 but even then Wemby can block three's sometimes and then when he contests it's almost impossible to even make it. It's gonna be very hard to go against this France team
@@redhorse6652if they could, they would. They have beaten Turkey by one point simply because of pure luck Last year. Turkeys best player is injured. Thats why happend like that. But they would still beat us by 10 point i say.
Imagine if Embiid decided to play for France, Fournier or Decolo as Pg, Yabu SG, Wemby SF, Embiid PW and Gobert as Center, that would've given the US a run for their money.
@@pTrzor That's drama all the way with him, I'm glad Batum is now back to the Clippers, and I seriously wonder for TMax with such a stupid player to support. This young humble, smart with high IQ BBall and talented kid doesn't need that, really...
. okay.. Well done. However, the 5 best Turkish players, 5 NBA players were missing to make it more balanced, with a viable and above all more realistic result. Now serious things for the France team 🇫🇷 will begin against Germany 🇩🇪 with 2 matches in a row, a match on hostile soil and a match on French soil. We will see if Germany 🇩🇪 pulls out all the guns or if it hides its game to better surprise at the Olympic Games. Because the preparation period should not be confused with the official competition. These are two very different, very distinct things. There are 6 preparation matches for the 🇫🇷 team. The increase in power must be gradual. And then we will see what Wembayama, general in chief but at the same time apprentice in the French basketball team 🇫🇷 and his lieutenant Gobert will do during the Olympic Games in a very particular political context, even difficult for France 🇫🇷 where the rise of the far right is now inevitable. Either way, whatever happens, the truth is in the rectangle between the 2 baskets on the field. LONG LONG LIVE FRENCH BASKETBALL. LONG LIVE THE FRANCE TEAM 🇫🇷 LONG LIVE
@@oscarcarmona1986 if you google it it was game 1/5 where France is going to verse a few other teams like Germany as basically practise for the olympics this roster had 16 players and you can only take 12 to olympics so they are using these 5 games to decided the 12 going
La France c’est toujours construite par La Défense On s’était perdu mais là on commence à rétrouver l’ADN de l’équipe Et pour les 24 fautes on verra si ça siffle autant aux JO Continuez la prépa à fond on va arriver plus en forme !
Ça sifflera encore plus, les arbitres étaient en mode détente hier soir, les fautes sont vraiment grossières, de la faute typique NBA où tu peux toucher le joueur comme tu veux en défense. En FIBA, c'est pas touche. C'est ça le plus gros réglage.
@@joachimmahoudeaux8619 c'est pas l'inverse plutot? si tu souffles sur un mec en nba c'est faute alors qu'en FIBA tu peux défendre de manière plus physique
It's been the case already in Tokyo, USA winning by 5 only... and not only in the paint, the small french guards like Strazel and Hifi are playing like pitbulls in iso defense, Yabusele, Bilal and Wemby defending on 3s... the only way for team USA is to target Strazel and Hifi with a taller PG like Haliburton, specially Hifi who's quick for sure but lags on stepback 3s...
With all due respect but türkiye dont even have a single starter in this team, only some of them are qualified to play from the bench in a real türkish national team , this is not even a türkiye B team , yes france is hot , there is no doubt
@KaiSottonumber1 Bronny is only popular because his dad, Kai has been trying to get in the league for a couple years now (undrafted in 2022, summer league of 2023) but isnt quite good enough. He won't ever be the face of the nba.
@@andrej0145 you are Serbian andrej? Great nation of bball.. I admit that with jokic you could certainly be world champion... Don't worry 😉the best tennisman ever is Serbian.
This match makes no sense. Türkiye played with the B team against France. Alperen Sengun, who crushed Wembanyama in the NBA with 45 points, will be added to the Turkish team, Ömer Faruk, Furkan Korkmaz and Cedi Osman will be added. I don't think France will or will win that easily when playing with the Real Türkiye team.
wembanyama crushed sengun way more than sengun crushed wembanyama, he was so afraid of wemby during their first nba two game that he did his best match ever after, sengun was blocked like 10 times by wemby this years , posterized and stuff, so keep it humble, you smell turkish pride from here, sengun is really good, but wemby eat him all day france is way better than turkey
@@lucian6857 I hope these two can be one of the legends in NBA. We will see... Wemby has a very fragile body structure and the possibility of injury is very high. He should be more strong than his current situation.
@@TitiReis-t2s Useless racist comment here. Please sir, make your two brain cells grow a bit by learning that being French is not about your skin color but about where you've been born, raised and educated. All those players are as French and proud to be than any other citizen with Roman/Gallic roots.
He will be contending for a chip in the NBA after this season, and when he gets there he will be there for years to come. This guy could literally break Lebron’s record for consecutive NBA finals appearances. Just look at how he creates with another 7 footer on the floor , blessed isn’t the word more like extraterrestrial
Wemby and Bilal on the perimeter with Batum to replace Rudy or Bilal, that makes Wemby paint + Bilal and Batum defending on 3s, or Rudy in paint + Bilal or Batum and Wemby to defend on the perimeter, bye bye 3s... and there's also Yabusele, Wemby and him blocked 2 shots near the 3 pts line... jump shots vs Wemby or Yabusele ? hell no, even LeFool with a fade away jump shot was blocked this season vs Wemby, the only way is to iso the small guards like Strazel or Hifi with a taller one like Haliburton, cos' those french pitbulls can be a nightmare too in defense.
This is the most disgraceful match in the history of Turkish Basketball.Even if it is a friendly match,I hope there will never be a match like this again.This match ended like this, not because France was good,but because Türkiye was very bad.What should be talked about here is not France,but Türkiye.Definitely.
Maybe again, but that's a 5 teams tournament with Serbia, Canada and Germany, too.Latvia seems to have a weak morale, Lithuania has a poor defense (you can't let the mexicans score that much in FIBA games, not normal). Also Spain, as always, but they've never been good in Olympics. To me there are 3 legit teams able to beat USA: France (already done it in a world cup with a B or C team vs a USA D team, only lost by 5 in 2021 in Tokyo), Serbia, Canada, that's a lot compared to previous Olympics.
The new twin towers, only comparable to 84's twin towers: Tachenko and Sabonis (even Sampson and Olajawon were smaller, Olajawon 2,08cm). Hell of a team Hifi, Yabouselle, Wemby, Gobert....
How is the mic quality so bad I don’t understand please fix this it’s embarrassing sounds like his recording this in a toilet using the flush button as a mic, I get better audio quality from my Xbox connect
@@jericho8919 stfu stupd brainle$$ guy, all born and raised in france where they learn this sport, at least france is mixed so we don't have a small brain like you to think like that
