Following potential 2013 draftees

[Sandy Braille]

I went to read the article but I don't speak or read German.

Lemme check it out. Damn, it looks like they asked the dude three questions about Dennis specifically. Very direct too. Ugh, I wish my German wasn't as rusty as it is

Ill give it a whirl though.

Die erfreuten sich auf der Bank an den beherzten Aktionen der jungen Doppellizenzler, die Trainer Kostas Flevarakis mit Ausnahme von Dennis Schröder ausgiebig spielen ließ. „Ich hätte heute gerne mitgefeiert auf dem Feld“, sagte Schneiders neidisch, und Anderson meinte: „Ich habe jede Minute genossen, die unsere Jungs auf dem Feld gezaubert haben.“

EDITAs far as I can tell, this game was a very resounding victory, despite the lack of play from Dennis.. Dennis Schröder then enviously, jealously, said "well, I would have loved to celebrate with my teammates on the court", but then mentioned "I enjoyed every minute, that our boys performed on the court.

Drei Fragen an Phantoms-Trainer Kostas Flevarakis zu Dennis Schröder

Three questions on Coach Felbarakis regarding Dennis Schröder (!!!) (Help me Rev9 if I'm incorrect):

1Herr Flevarakis, warum haben Sie Dennis Schröder nicht eingesetzt?

Die anderen jungen Spieler, Lucas, Erik und Howard, hatten es heute mal verdient zu spielen. Sie haben die ganze Saison hart gearbeitet. Ich bin froh, dass sie so stark gespielt und gezeigt haben, dass sie auch Zukunft haben. Ich wollte Dennis sechs Minuten vor Schluss bringen, schließlich wollten die Fans ihn ja auch sehen. Aber er da wollte er nicht mehr.

Q: Coach Flevarakis, why did you bench Dennis Schröder??

A: The other young players Lucas, Erik and Howard have earned their right to play today for once. They have worked hard all season long. I am so happy that they have played so hard, and showed that they could also have great futures. I wanted to give Dennis 6 minutes before the end of the game-- after all, the fans want to see him as well. But then he didn't want to play anymore.

I think I nailed this one translation. Coach's answer was very direct-- not very cryptic.

2Musste er so lange draußen sitzen, weil er das Abschlusstraining verpasst hatte? War es eine Art Strafe?

Nein. Es war eine Belohnung für die anderen. Dennis ist im Kopf irgendwo zwischen Deutschland und den USA. Er war eine Woche weg und hat auch danach nicht immer mittrainiert. Die anderen dagegen haben für den Verein gefightet, in der kritischen Situation, in der wir in den letzten Wochen gesteckt haben. Sie waren mit vollem Herzen dabei, und sie bleiben hier, während Dennis weggehen will und seine Zukunft anderswo hat. Da wollte ich auch den anderen gegenüber fair sein.

Q: Did he HAVE to sit out for so long, because he missed his practice? Was this some sort of punishment?

A: No. It was a reward for the others. Dennis, in his head, is somewhere between Germany and the USA. He was away for a week, and then afterwards he also didn't train together with us. The others, in contrast, have fought for our team, in a critical situation, that we have been placed in the past week. They were there with full hearts, and they stayed here-- whereas Dennis wants to leave, and seek his future elsewhere. Therefore, I wanted to be fair to the either players

3Trauen Sie ihm den Sprung in die NBA zu? Und welchen Anteil haben Sie? Andere BBL-Trainer hätten einem 19-Jährigen vielleicht nicht eine so große Rolle gegeben und dabei auch ihren Job aufs Spiel gesetzt.

Das kann man wohl so sehen, ja. Aber man muss die gesamte Mannschaft loben. Es war auch für die Mitspieler nicht einfach, sich einem 19-Jährigen unterzuordnen, gerade für die älteren, international erfahrenen Leute. Wir haben ihm alle sehr viel geholfen, dorthin zu kommen, wo er jetzt ist. Und Dennis wiederum hat der Mannschaft viel gegeben. Jetzt hoffe ich natürlich, dass er es schafft in die NBA. Ich wünsche es ihm sehr.

Q: Do you trust him in the jump to the NBA? Do you have any concerns/interests? Other Basketball-league trainers have probably not given a 19 year old such a large role, and by that also (can't piece out the meaning of these last 6 words clearly) based his role on his performance

A: Yeah, one can definitely see that. But one needs to applaud the entire team. It was also not easy for the other players, for a 19 year old to take over the roles of the older, international, well-knowleged players. We have all helped him so much, to bring him to where he is now. And Dennis also gave a lot to this team as well. Now I, of-course, hope that he succeeds in the NBA. I truly wish him a lot of success.

 

[Dr. Jones]

i would guess he was told to not play so that he doesnt hurt his stock or get hurt.

Genius reply.

 

[Sandy Braille]

From what I could tell, maybe Dennis was just like "well if I'm gonna be benched to give these other dudes an opportunity, I might as well sit out for the entire game. Not much purpose in playing in garbage time".

Keep in mind, German coaches for all sports are very strict-- very principled, very Xs and Os. German sports teams are always well-coached. It seems like this was just a convenient reward for t=some of the younger players, especially seeing as Dennis will be long gone, and the coach wants to focus on developing next season's players.

So basically the anti-Ty?

So if your translation is correct (which I think it is correct enough, but what do I know), it is really not the big ordeal that those tweets were making it out to be.

I actually think it was complimentary of Dennis (at least in parts it was).

It's honestly quite accurate-- the only place that I could have made a mistake was the 6 words that I mentioned. Well, I think so at least.


I agree with you as well.


Wheu Team Jazzfanz!!!!!

Sounded like he was holding a grudge more like. Saying things like "Dennis is somewhere between Germany and USA" and "The rest of the team worked hard while he was away". LOL.. what's that about?

I just don't think he's happy that suddenly he's gonna lose his star PG to the big brother, "the N-B-facking-A".

Deal with it Coach!

I have no idea who these guys are but:

"@DraftExpress: Barcelona's Alex Abrines and Marko Todorovic have both officially entered the 2013 NBA Draft, according to their agent Igor Crespo."

Teammates of Tomic.

 

[The Midnight]

right now who do you take at 14 if both are on the board... McCollum or schröder?

Schroeder. The question you've gotto ask is "Which player can you see leading our team to the NBA Finals?".

If his shot is legit, I see Schroeder.

Disclaimer: Provided his psycho & attitude tests & all those different tests they do checks out. We know so little about him as a person from watching those highlight vids.

Genius reply.
