France - Germany

Hello.
Olympics. Basketball. France against Germany. We are playing with a small handicap against the Germans.
The French team doesn't impress me at all. They looked tragic in the friendly games, especially in the first game against Brazil, even though they won by 12 points, the game was still very poor. Against the Japanese, they were pulling the referees by the ears. There were no fouls there and the Japanese were definitely more deserving. They are trying to play everything through Wembley, which doesn't look very good. In general, the French are starting to lack talent (or maybe it would be more accurate to say that their French talent is aging), and it will be difficult to dominate under the basket against the Germans.
The German team is very fun and strong. They showed an excellent form in the friendly games and even fought against the USA until the end. In the group, both Japan and Brazil were overwhelmed confidently. The Germans have talent everywhere. Schröder looks great, Theis is tearing up the court, especially on defense. The Wagner brothers also look good, although it's true that Franz hasn't played very good games yet, so there is still room for improvement there. And what about players like Obst or Bonga, who seem like complete shooters on the national team.
I don't see many chances for the French here and the small handicap is only given out of respect for them. We are playing against the Germans very calmly. Good luck.
