Is French Basketball For Real?

Is French Basketball For Real?

There is no doubt about it. The French national team is VERY scary.

After encountering a lot of difficulties during the month of July, losing most of the exhibition games, many people dismissed the French team's chances of winning the gold medal. People, including myself, believed that it was a team with a good balance of veterans and youngsters, but that it still needed maturity to reach the top of the podium… right?

However... it has not been like that. France has exceeded all expectations at the Olympic Games.

In today's video we look at how France Basketball has emerged as one of the best basketball countries in the world.

France is by far the best country in collective sports! Top 3 in football, basket, handball, volleyball, rugby! Crazy

[MtNikota]

At some point, France held the position of the best nation in the world in football, handball, rugby and volleyball, while being 2nd in basketball.... there isn't a country that come close in collective sports. Insane, people should study that...

[chrissssa]

France is the best country in collective sports in the world, Basketball, Football, Rugby, Volleyball, Handball, everything goes pretty well. When they decide to develop something, they do it right. And there's a lot of yougsters that love BB here.

[lawsonwilfrid]

Nolan Traoré... Next draft 2025... The tremendous PG who is missing to Fance will be there for 2028...Frightening

[francklacan]

The French women basketball team is not too bad either

[iansmirna]

It's not the Team USA who won against France but Stephen Curry himself 😂

[auxrages]

Just look at the last results of France:
2019 world cup. 3rd place after baeting Team Usa in quarter final.
2021 olympics: silver medal against Usa with 5points, and a win against Usa in group stage
2022. Finalist of eurobasket against spain, our archnemesis
2023. Fiba worldcup. Disaster and left at group stage.
2024. Olympics. Silver medal against Usa.

Except last world cup, France is the most regular team andthe main rival of team Usa.
France did beat Usa 2 times in 5 years on 4 games.

[CDJM]

Don't forget that France already reached olympic final before Parker... In 2000.

[yanncarduner]

Thanks for this video, I'm french, I love basketball and I support my national team .In my humble opinion my country has been improving for a little more than 20 years regarding basketball and it happened as you said it thanks to Tony Parker and a great work on finding and developing prospects

[ranyzaoui]

In 2028 :

PG : Traoré - Hifi -Strazel

SG : Coulibaly - Cordinier

SF : Risacher - Fournier - Dieng

PF : Yabusele - Sarr

C : Wemby - Lessort

[bealu]

Guercheshon yabusele went so hard in this, france mvp

[AdrienCollot]

Oh please stop with the ref call on Strazel's shot. The foul is at the begining of shot.

[مهدي-ضغ]

Man I hade gooseberries during the entire video great job ❤

[julesm]

7:10 bruh, americans didn't even understand that they proved his point, he never said that the usa weren't world champions, they are, they proved it by winning, he said the celtics (or the nuggets at the time) weren't world champions, he never said anything about team usa, americans are so up in their own head it's too funny that they can't understand what lyles said, they just thought he was dissing the usa even though he said he loved his country and he represents it
liked the vid nonetheless, doesn't take away from it but that comment wasn't necessary, there's also a few things left out from the history of france, like the fact that basketball was already a thing before tony parker, I mean they won a silver medal in 2000 which was before the tony parker era, in fact, france never won anything at the olympics with parker in it, there's also the change that happened after the group stage ended with fournier and the head coach coming to a disagreement that led to them becoming better, still it was a good recap and tackled the important things about the current france's basketball situation

[wolvie]

Just one correction to the video, when France faced Germany in the first preparation game both Franz and Mo Wagner were not playing.

[swan_]

Nice video, indeed, our team is going to improve. I won't bet now on the LA28 gold but I won't bet against either. The team have a huge potential and we will see greate games ! Yabusele was a nice surpise when everybody was looking for Wemby (who was maybe a bit yong for all the expectation on an Olympics context). But boy i dream of a rematch for the gols in 4 years !

[Evergreen_]

USA defeated FRA in France in 2024, FRA will defeat USA in USA in 2028

[thzo]

7:11 i'm sorry, but this win just proved Lyles point.

[Dan-bctd]

Very cool vid’ ! Let’s see what happen in LA and if Wemby gets his vengeance over the avengers on their turf ;)

[nlgerkn]

They made us proud during the Olympics ! USA was just beter ! let's just hope we get another chance in 2028
