...and fulfilling a promise he made with his dad: http://www.11alive.com/sports/olympics/georgia-athletes/dennis-Schröder-fulfills-lifelong-promise-made-with-his-late-father/201889646

Actually Germany will only play EURO2017 qualifiers.

Some European teams MAY BE disqualified for Olympics. If this really happens there MAY BE a chance for Germany to qualify for RIO2016

without really reading any of this... dennis really doesnt need to get any attention from this. I kinda understand how he feels, being an athlete with  a father that died early, but i think dennis is bad adviced to mention this in any way, shape or form. Dennis is awesome and he can cherrish his daddy all the time he wants, but you should just do this in success.

Dennis is a very good athlete and he fullfills his promise, but many of the nba players have a tragic background.

@ rd79 but will it be the same? they are not really being disqulified for athletic reasons but more for money reasons. i want to see dirk and dennis once more, but we dont deserve it,
