My German is about as good as my French and my Spanish and my Mandarin.

And Filipino, I can't speak a word of it.

It might be.

And then I think you also have to add in where they were in the game.

I mean, you're talking about fourth quarter trying to come back again.

They had come back from 20 down and then it coughed up the lead.

Yeah.

And Franz was starting to get it going a little bit.

But so, yeah.

So Black gets in there in traffic.

over these people and then i believe it was a tie game too right i think so i like it was nuts and and then um the crowd you know it's a german crowd uh but they're all there rooting for the magic because of the wagner's yeah so black does this and they go bonkers

Well, I thought he looked rusty for sure.

And he had told some of the Alba Berlin guys, you know, who he's so close to.

He had mentioned that he didn't quite have his wind.

And so for three quarters, he looked like it like it was struggling to shoot.

I think he only had five points to three, three quarters.

And he was two of nine shooting at one point.

And, and so all that stuff sounded about right.

You weren't sure if he was nervous or he just hadn't played in so long, but then he comes out with 13 in the fourth and a bunch of clutch buckets.

And he looked a lot more like himself.
