What Franz Wagner is gaining from the Olympics | Germany shows its championship mettle
One question I get a lot is why is Franz Wagner spending his summer playing for Germany rather than working on his game. Beyond the national pride answer, Wagner is gaining a lot by playing in pressure-packed games and meaningful basketball. Things he is learning and taking back to the Orlando Magic. And things he is proving he learned from last season in Orlando.

Today's question of the day: Is Germany the best bet to beat the U.S. at the Olympics?
I don't think anyone can beat the USA. Team is too deep. As for Franz he's finally getting his name out there and it's great. Most basketball fans have never even watched him play because the Magic aren't popular. It's why there was so many dumb comments about his max.
They have to get past the first round before they get respect
Is it bad that I’ll be rooting for Germany to win gold? My Magic Fandom is greater than my patriotism.
I think the Olympics woke up Lebron too. I think Franz will a way different player his IQ will out the roof. Mo will have a different swag too
All teams from the "death group" are eliminated, unbelievable. Was sure Germany will face Canada. Germany never reached the semis at Olympia before, it's already a great tournament for us.
Man, I want to take a second to give PRR his props. The grind he puts in for us everyday is very much appreciated by many of us crazy fans, and we can tell you are passionate and care for our team.
Cant wait for next season…
Let's go Magic!!!!!
I've been magic fan all 35 years. What I see the brass doing is big point guard. 6/8
Black penny t-mack .Fronze or Polo . remember turkalue .
Jordan played point also magic for the most we have and won't to be tall see the court better Fronze would be great and Black needs time on the court and a little mean focus.
Franz was insane he stepped in when it matters most
Can we get the statistics on how many Germans are watching this podcast? I`m curious 😀
