The Legacy of Gordon Herbert: A New Chapter for German Basketball

The curtains have closed on the Olympic chapter of German basketball under the guidance of Coach Gordon Herbert. As the team bids farewell to their coach, they also reflect on the lessons learned from their disappointing Olympic finish. In a recent interview, Assistant Coach Klaus Perwas shared his insights on the team’s journey, Herbert’s coaching style, and his own decision to remain with the Frankfurt Skyliners.

A Bittersweet Ending

The German basketball team’s Olympic campaign came to a close without a medal, a disappointing end to an otherwise impressive run. Despite this, the team remains optimistic, with Perwas emphasizing the importance of learning from their mistakes. “We have to analyze what went wrong and work on improving our weaknesses,” he said.
