8 wins and 0 losses are expected to win the championship! Germany averages 26 points per game, Turkey averages 18 points per game

The semi-finals of the Men's Basketball European Championship have ended. Germany defeated Finland 98-86, and Turkey defeated Greece 94-68. Both teams reached the finals and will compete for the championship. Finland and Greece will also play another game to decide the third place.

It is worth mentioning that this is the German men's basketball team's second European Championship final after 20 years. The last time they reached the European Championship final was in 2005, and they finally lost to Greece 62-78 and won the runner-up. Unfortunately, Greece did not reach the finals of this European Championship and failed to meet with Germany again.

The last time the Turkish men's basketball team reached the European Championship finals also dates back to 2001, when they lost to Yugoslavia in the finals and only won the runner-up. Türkiye has reached the finals again after 24 years this year and is expected to win the first European Championship in team history, but it must defeat Germany in the finals.

The performances of Germany and Turkey are indeed very impressive in this European Championship. They not only achieved 5 wins and 0 losses in the group stage, but also achieved 3 wins and 0 losses in the knockout stage, with a cumulative record of 8 wins and 0 losses, and have never lost a game. Therefore, Germany and Turkey both hope to win the championship with a complete victory, thus becoming the fourth team in history to achieve this feat, comparable to Yugoslavia in 2001 (6-0), Lithuania in 2003 (6-0), and Slovenia in 2017 (9-0).

Germany and Türkiye not only achieved unbeaten records of 8 wins and 0 losses in this European Championship, but also had a very high net score. Germany averaged 26.4 points per game in 8 games, and only won 8 points against Slovenia in the quarter-finals, and won at least 12 points in the remaining seven games. They won 30 points against Montenegro and Finland in the group stage, and even better than 63 points against Britain.

Although Türkiye's average net win score is not as high as Germany, it can average 18.25 points per game in 8 games. In the semi-finals against Greece, Türkiye also won by 26 points, which shows that their strength is indeed very strong.

It is also worth mentioning that Germany has performed very well in the international arena in recent years. It has achieved a fourth place in the 2022 European Championships, won the Men's Basketball World Cup in 2023, and ranked fourth in the 2024 Paris Olympics. This year, it has returned to the European Cup final after 20 years and is expected to win the championship. In terms of strength comparison, Germany still has a higher hope of winning the championship than Türkiye.
