After German re-unification
Until the German reunification in 1990, the team played as the West Germany national basketball team. Year 1990 ( MCMXC) was a Common year starting on Monday (link displays the 1990 Gregorian calendar) (Basketball was not a popular sport in East Germany). The German Democratic Republic ( GDR; Deutsche Demokratische Republik DDR; commonly known in English as East Germany) was a Socialist state In decades of competitive basketball, West Germany never had much success, partly also because in that time, the NBA made it near-impossible for German internationals to play in both their NBA teams and the national team. For this reason, important players like Detlef Schrempf, Uwe Blab or Christian Welp often were unavailable in big tournaments. Detlef Schrempf (born January 21 1963, in Leverkusen, West Germany) is a retired German - American NBA Basketball Uwe Konstantine Blab (born March 26, 1962 in Munich, West Germany) is a retired German professional Basketball player who Christian Ansgar Welp (born January 2 1964 in Delmenhorst, West Germany) is a retired German professional Basketball
The win of the 1993 European Championship at home in Germany, thanks to superb clutch play of tournament MVP Welp (who had returned from the USA), came totally unexpected. Year 1993 ( MCMXCIII) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1993 Gregorian calendar) EuroBasket is the name commonly used to refer to the men's Basketball championship contested biennially by the national teams of the European Continent under The team won the election to "Team of the Year" by the German press. There was a huge wave of enthusiasm, but arguably due to lack of infrastructure and professionalism, tangible results were rare. German basketball stayed in the shadows, the next generation of youth shunning the native league while being glued to the NBA with Michael Jordan. Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17 1963 is a retired American professional Basketball player and active businessman The national team never came close to repeat the success.
But then, German basketball got a lucky break when a lanky youth named Dirk Nowitzki tried his luck with the Dallas Mavericks and became a superstar. Dirk Werner Nowitzki (ɖɪʁk weʁneʁ no'v?tski (born June 19 1978 is a German professional Basketball player who plays for the Dallas Mavericks of The Dallas Mavericks (also known as the Mavs) are the professional Basketball team of the National Basketball Association based in Dallas Texas He created new enthusiasm for basketball in Germany, and in his slipstream, the national team had a renaissance.

In 2001, Germany played Turkey and was one second away from the final, when Turkey nailed a buzzer beater to send the game into overtime. Year 2001 ( MMI) was a Common year starting on Monday according to the Gregorian calendar.

The series debuted on the web and was later published in print format by Shueisha, being serialized in its Turkey won, and demoralized Germany lost the third-place match and ended an unlucky fourth.
However, success at last came in 2002, when Nowitzki inspired Germany to win the bronze medal in the 2002 World Championships.

The FIBA World Championship is a world Basketball tournament for men's national teams held quadrennially by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA Nowitzki was also named MVP of this tourney.
One year later, however, the team suffered its worst setback in years. In the Eurobasket 2003, which was also the qualifier for the 2004 Olympic Games, the talented, but inexperienced team blundered through a tournament, blowing late-game leads with appalling anti-clutch play. The 2004 Summer Olympic Games, officially known as the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad, was an International Multi-sport event which was celebrated Germany was eliminated early and failed to qualify for the Olympics.
Before the Eurobasket 2005, the expectations were not too high. The EuroBasket 2005 (common short name for the 34th edition of FIBA 's European Basketball Championship) was held in Serbia and Montenegro (now Serbia The German roster was depleted by injury, and remembering the disaster of two years ago, nobody dared to dream of a medal. However, an inspired Dirk Nowitzki powered the team into the finals, eliminating favourites like Spain and Slovenia on its way.

In the 2006 World Championship in Saitama, Germany won most of its first-round matches, only losing to Spain. In the knock-out phase, Germany fought a tough match versus underdogs Nigeria, ending in a lucky 78-77 win when Nigerian star Ime Udoka missed a last-second layup. Ime Sunday Udoka (ˈiːmeɪ juːˈdoʊkə EE-may you-DOE-kuh) (born August 9 1977, in Portland Oregon) is an American professional In the quarter finals, Germany played top favorite USA, and managed to play an excellent first half trailing only 39-41. However, led by Carmelo Anthony, USA outplayed Germany 20-8 in the third quarter and at last won 65-85. Carmelo Kiyan Anthony (born May 29 1984 is an American professional Basketball player for the Denver Nuggets, of the National Basketball Association In the consolation round, Germany lost 73-75 against France, choking a lead in the last 18 seconds with two easy turnovers.
