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.
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.
Three questions on Coach Felbarakis regarding Dennis Schröder (!!!) (Help me Rev9 if I'm incorrect):
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.
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
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.
The more I think about this, the more I think that Dallas is gonna swipe Schröder right before we do. They're gonna want to try and keep Dirk happy, and I'm sure he would be DELIGHTED to draft a great penetrating point guard who also happens to be German. Can you imagine Dirk and Dennis?
Ugh. I just hope KOC trades up to ensure that we pick either Schröder or Burke-- still very lukewarm on McCollum
What happened to that high potential European athletic PG who could penetrate that Dallas already has?

Beaubois was drafted purely on measurements and athleticism. He played in the French league, and was a great "risk" @ 25th pick. His season was derailed via hand surgery this year. Seems superficially similar to Schröder, but I think Schröders penetration game, and speed is far-superior. Hence, hell be getting drafted 10 spots lower-- and maybe even in the lottery.
As far as I know, Dallas is still hopeful with him. For whatever reason, Beaubois ****S on the Jazz consistently.

i have a few concerns about schoder.
DX has some videos of the world team practice and as far as shooting with dennis i am worried.

1- when he gets the ball he brings it down to his knees before going for the shot. It takes time and makes his shot easier to block
2- He shoots from his forehead. This is a low release point. again making it easier to contest his shot.
3- He doesnt get a lot of lift on his shot. He shoots almost flat footed. again getting his shot off will be a problem
These to things tell me that he is going to have a hard time shooting in the NBA. Now these can be fixed but when you start to tinker with a guys shot it could all go to hell

Those are far from perfect mechanics, but I think you're too harsh in every one of your judgments.
