Swept away by a superb German team this Friday evening, the French team is worrying a few days before the quarter-finals.

Many people are criticized after the game, including Vincent Collet and his game plan for Victor Wembanyama.

When the Blues face a real basketball team, the difference is noticeable.

This Friday evening and despite a tight start to the match, Vincent Collet’s men quickly took a beating.

They chased the score for a good part of the match, only to lose 85-71. Franz Wagner and Dennis Schroder crushed the defense of the French team to take first place in the group.

Big worry for the Blues

The French team will finish second and it’s fair to say that this is not good news at all.

The Blues showed some serious shortcomings this Friday, with a static attack and a very worrying game system.

The cause? The use of Victor Wembanyama.

Far from his best level, the pivot was neglected by his staff.

Enough to raise serious questions about the rest of this competition.

We need to find Wemby in the paint more often in the second half.

He catches the ball on the three-point line and gets doubled every time he takes a dribble

It’s not for nothing that Vincent Collet and his staff are widely criticized on social networks today.

The match is relatively worrying after weeks of preparation, especially when the next opponent of the Blues could be Canada.

The French team largely disappoints, with Vincent Collet in the crosshairs for his use of Victor Wembanyama.

If the Blues want to hope to win this tournament or at least get the medal, the staff absolutely must do something.
