Finally, JJ reacts to The Joel Embiid / Nikola Jokic match-up this week with a little breakdown of Embiid's dominance. Then Franz joins the pod to talk about growing up playing in Germany, the differences between international basketball and American basketball, his experience being a part of the team that beat Team USA at the 2023 FIBA World cup, his basketball journey to the NBA and how he's working on developing his game, learning from players like Luka Doncic, SGA and Jimmy Butler, what it's like playing with Paolo Banchero, his relationship with his brother Mo Wagner, that state of the Orlando Magic today and so much more.

The way Franz defended his brother Moe speaks volumes, the positive impact, the ability to fight back into the league and into the rotation playing positive minutes is incredible. He just dont take no bullshit.
that was just real nice wasn't it? real love for his brother
I love the Wagner's man, such great people and basketball players!
I didnt understand this part. Are there any problems for him in the US outside of the court? Could you explain me his standing in the public and media
Yeah. I think Franz wrote this comment.
Started from Prenzlauer Berg now we here!
Franz & JJ are awesome together hopefully 🤞 another episode soon
Franz Wagner 🏆 World Champion and has one of the highest basketball IQ‘s 🏀🔥🙌 in the NBA
Franz is my favorite basketball player
Franz Wagner is so underrated
Franz and JJ together are awesome hopefully 🤞 another episode soon

As an Orlando Magic Fan, this interview was incredible. Franz 'Boogie' Wagner will be nothing less than a Star in this league. He is an assassin, A FIBA World Champion and a future NBA Champion. He has the BEST eurostep in the league and that three point shot consistency is on the horizon. As of this comment, Franz Wagner has had LESS THAN 5 Nationally Televised games in his career, the NBA world will soon find out that Orlando Magic have (2) Elite Caliber Wings..
Yes, Let's go Magic!!
The media needs to get this team on national TV! Only one national game this year, disgraceful for a team with 2 legit rising stars and so much talent!
He & Banchero are an elite wing duo. People really don’t understand this.
RIP Dejan, great coach from everything I’ve heard.
I’d say big duo, but semantics. 6’10 250 & 6’10” 225. At least Paolo is a big. Great young duo regardless.
@@superdopehiphopFranz is definitely a 2-3. Guard/wing skills. Size isn't a defining factor for being a big.
@@robertcampbell8070 Jokic has PG skills he’s still a center. Honestly Franz is a 2/3/4/5 depending on lineup around him.
@@superdopehiphop Lol Joker is an excellent passing and shooting big. He'd be an abomination as a PG. Style of play is what makes a player. Franz has even acknowledged in interviews he's not strong enough to play the four or five consistently. He can guard one through five, but he's not a big, period. He doesn't play like one and the Magic don't use him in that role. You are purely basing it off his height.
@@robertcampbell8070 I’ve watched him a lot. I know he’s a wing. Just like Durant is at 6’10. I also know they can both play 4/5 depending on the lineup of teammates + opponent. Magic are a massive team so they don’t need him much at 4/5.
Also Joker is elite brining the ball up. “Abomination as a PG” is comedy
Excellent interview. High quality stuff JJ. Hope Franz is back on the court soon.
Absolutely
It felt so short 😢😢😢
We need a part 2 soon 🙏
Man, I'm glad we got this kid in Orlando! This was a very impressive interview. He might be a sicko in the making 👀👀👀
There's two players Orlando fans didn't understand at the draft. Penny and Franz.. Thank you Chicago!
Ayyy my boy Franz! Bringing that World Champion mentality to Orlando💫
So excited to hear from one of the nba up and coming young stars, and his experience before and during his career in the nba.
Finally Franz on this channel! Exited for the Interview
Franz is such a great guy ❤
Great interview JJ. Great variety of questions and i gotta say.... impressed by how mature and smart Franz answered everything
He German school education is pretty good there
Bro that 10 passes drill 😭😭, no wonder the majority of the international players in the league are usually pretty good playmakers/connectors
Playing a full court practise game without any dribbling is also a nice way to get your passing skill better.
At one time a teammate complained about it (just recreational basketball on a regional level) and our coach made us play one squad can't pass against one squad can't dribble...
Do I need to say what happened!
And good at closing off passing lanes. I can still remember that drill. It's bloody exhausting.
It’s the same drill that soccer players do, pass and move into space
Thank you both JJ and Franz for everything you have done, did, and will do for my Orlando Magic.
Thats why i love JJ always respects every starting by pronouncing the assist coach name correctly.
Two brothers, playing basketball for the same NBA Team and are living together? I am surprised nobody has asked them about a reality TV-Show 😂
Love the interview, rooting for a second round soon! With Moe please 😅
german tv is producing a 4 part series about fiba-worldcup, this nba season and into olympia 24 about the Wagner Brothers. it shall be released 2nd half of this year. (ZDF sportreportage). thats not the same as what you mentioned, but something....
That would be pretty cool but you might have to watch Mo Wagner for what NBA girlfriends/wives he brings home 😂
Us magic fans are lucky to have Franz. The gem of his draft class without a doubt 🫶
I am actually from Berlin myself, my father works in the part of the town were he grew up and seeing someone like franz/ moritz, schöder, theis representing my city and my country makes me really proud. he is smart and talented! shoutout to all my fellow germans in the nba, keep it up!
JJ & Franz new love 💕 story
As a Magic fan looking back at that Chicago trade. We have been blessed with getting Franz with that pick along with WCJ.
Franz is a gem
I would 100% watch a Franz & Mo show
Another day, another great video JJ THANK YOU 🎉🙏
Showing the Magic some love, I love that!
In case anyone was wondering, these club teams in Europe usually have open tryouts. If you are good enough you can play for the club. Happens in soccer as well.
Interesting take… I’m from Europe and played basketball my whole life and never had a try out to make the team
@MrDinocizmic Cool. How did you make the team? Did someone scout you and you ask you to play.
I didn't mean that was the only way to join a club but I assume tryouts are one of the ways.
Usually you only get tryouts at a certain level, example would be : higher division/level = tryouts and more regional/lower level = no tryouts @MrDinocizmic
@a.knight8197 Thanks! Makes sense.
@@MrDinocizmiccause you had been a bad player whole life.
Should have brought up when Mikal blocked his potential game winner during his rookie year just to rub it in more. Franz is a beast. My favorite young player right now. Can't wait for them to run it back in the Olympics. Hoping for a US/GER final.
Why do I feel so much tension between JJ and Franz? 😂 Loved the interview!
what kinda tension 😂
Cool. Always wanted to hear what this guy has to say. I've never seen an interview with him yet.
Congrats on 1m subs JJ. Great content as always and your consistency is much appreciated. Great way to start 2024
34:48 watching how european basketball is played that practice game makes a lot of sense
I am a Magic fan and you JJ were my favorite while you played on Magic!! I watched you develop into a different player than when drafted and it was a beautiful transition! Your movement off ball was excellent!! Fast forward years and now Franz is my favorite player! His game is so diverse!! Thank you for this entertaining and intelligent podcast!!🥰
44:05 onwards JJ is trying his best to keep it in🤣 the man wanted to burst out for steve kerr's tactics respectfully lmao
Fantastic as always!
Thank you for putting in the clips of the plays ur talking about! The more of that the better, especially when ur telling a story with a guest.
100%
Finish video. Like. Gonna go watch Franz highlights with my Franz jersey
Franz todes sympathisch
I just started watching NBA again this year, but I saw paolo banchero the other night for the first time.. wtf is this guy?! He's a monster, like a Melo XL. I could easily see him becoming one of the best in the league..
I think everyone has that same reaction when they see him for the first time, I’ve heard it from at least 5 different people, and can 100% attest after watching a game live. He’s damn near 7’0 in shoes
What a great Talk, thanks for that
Congrats on a Millie, well deserved 👏
Yessirrr this the one I been waiting on hopefully you can get your duke brother Paolo on here next!! Magic going up!!!
Magic heritage 💙🤍
The Orlando Magic once they are fully healthy and all off minutes restrictions are gonna be almost unbeatable nightly if they are hitting there 3 pointers.
That's quite a few ifs though
Unbeatable is a stretch i think but I’d like to hear more?
Gotta love this guy! And I am not only saying this because we share the same nationality ;)
Franzie boo my pookie bear, so good to hear ur voice… I will root for u forever my savior 🐐
I grew up playing basketball in Berlin (repeatetly losing to Alba Berlin in the regional youth tournaments) and went to highschool in Ann Arbor. Somehow never met either of the Wagner bros. But damn I can relate to so much of what he says. What a cool dude. Reminds me a lot of some of my friends.
Franz 👑
w guest and world champion. him and his brother represent there country well
I need franz on my fantasy roster. Did he make any comment about his injury? Will watch the full show later. :D
Yessss my favorite player, my German brother Franz. Ich liebe dich❤❤❤
38 points without free throws crazy game by Franz 🏀🔥🙌
Mo and Franz living their dream
Hearing him speak about the development of younger players in Europe, not a surprise at all why their are catching up to us. The US needs to pick it up!!
franz goatner
Future All - Star!
Team spacing and passing drills are just basic drills in the earliest age development phases, I am amazed that teaching old team basketball is a surprise for JJ.
56:11 NBA court dimensions are literally larger than a regular court. This is primarily the reason why there's is so much space in NBA than any other court.
Love from 030 !
JJ WE GET IT YOU LOVE JOEL DANG
Wow actully one of the 1st here
JJ is correct, Embiid is incredible at drawing contact. I do wonder whether during the playoffs where more contact is common and less fouls are called if this will affect Embiid's game. Scoring has a lot to do with tempo and finding your rhythm, a big part of Embiid's game is getting to the foul line so idk. Either way Joel is going to score and dominate but still a question that I have.
Need Paolo next!!!
Grüße aus Deutschland an JJ
🔥
Keep preaching JJ! Don’t trade my boy Tobi 22:37
2 of my favorite people / players. Fantastic interview and wish it could have gone on much longer. Thanks
I have my Franz jersey, and right next to it now is my old JJ Redick Magic jersey too
Nice!
lets gooooo
Franz & Mo, beste 🫶
Franz!! 💪🏿💪🏿 a future Orlando Magic great💯💯
Can’t deny. There’s too much handsomeness in this video. Love Franz and JJ. Great ballers ❤
I wish Moe’s there, too. 😊
38:25 JJ you are pushing 40 and still having crazy voice cracks lmao... Anyways great pod as always especially for me since I am German !! Franz ist so sympathisch
🔥🔥🔥
🐐
Grüße aus Deutschland 😘
JJ needs to interview TJ ASAP...
Fraaaanz 🔥🇩🇪
Should be a good episode
Very nice recovery by the Magic. Now go take game 5 at Cleveland.
What´s not to love about Franz Wagner? Sky is the limit.
Lol jj I want to hear your breakdown on embiid when the playoffs come around 😂😂 I promise you won’t be saying nobody can guard him
💎
GO MAGIC
11:43 I think you may be underestimating Pat Riley here
please interview manu ginobliiii
The dwyane wade love was wild from him until you look at dwade’s career per game stats and how they’re nearly identical to franz’s lmfao
1:06:03 Jalen is in fact a dog, Magic fans got a lot of love for him and how he plays the game. I love that Franz called him a dog 😂
🔥🙌
Central Florida is A LOT like New York being THEY ALL MOVE HERE!! Ugh! Love you Franz! We're building a dynasty!
Second Spectrum after NBA star says he uses it: Business is boomin..
Ryder Cup of basketball: Team Europe of Wagner, Markinnen, Jokic, Doncic and Wembanyama 🔥🔥🔥. Can you put up a US team to beat them???
Bester Mann!
❤️🏀🔥🙌
Fascinating that they don’t teach ball screens until so much later.
Call him "JJ Two Times" because he says everything two times lmao!
I love both Embiid & Yokic.They have a big difference.Embiid is faster & unguardable.He can shoot mid-range shots,pass,reb & shoot 3s!But Yokic is slower & unguardable.He doesn't run much on e floor.He's a phenomenal rim prot,passer,def/off rebounder & shotmaker.It's tuff to compare em because they're great!!
Franz underrated, people still giving him a ceiling. Also the Embiid part, we already know that take is biased. Embiid crying about the MVP trophy last year, put it into perspective.
