Bayern's Lively Title Triumph: Obst's Wild Bash Order
Players of Bayern basketball receive unexpected instruction: "'Is he nuts or what?'"
In a rowdy celebration after clinching their seventh Bundesliga title, FC Bayern's star player, Andi Obst, issued an unconventional celebration decree. The thrilling 81:77 win over ratiopharm Ulm marked Bayern's triumph in the breath-taking Bundesliga final. According to teammate Johannes Voigtmann, the celebration might not last long due to the drained players, but Obst had other plans.
"Is he out of his mind, or what?", said the national player, brandishing a stubby cigar and a stein post-victory. "I'm taking 'em all with me, so they'll really feel it tomorrow. No one's going home till it's daybreak." Voigtmann conceded that he'd follow Obst's lead at the title celebration.
Hainer Heaves a Sigh: A Decent Season Salvaged
The jubilant Munich crew, led by the notorious partygoer Obst, dramatically expressed relief at securing the championship—a feat that revived their otherwise disappointing season. After losing in the cup semis and missing the Euroleague playoffs, the championship prevented a season’s worth of efforts from going down the drain, president Herbert Hainer acknowledged, but still spoke of a "reasonable season."
Exhaustion and relief dominated the star-studded ensemble from the Isar, who had played 83 games throughout the season. "It was just damn exhausting," admitted Niels Giffey. "But wow, we made it." After the final whistle of a nail-biting game, where Ulm nearly erased a 17-point deficit and still lost to the Bayern, the Munich team embraced each other in relief.
Coach Herbert: A Full Year's Work
Coach Gordon Herbert calculated that he'd effectively worked a full year since receiving his Olympic preparations selection for Paris as the German national coach on June 27, 2024. Exactly 365 days later, he pulled off the Bundesliga coup with the Bayern. As for what's next? "I haven't a clue," Herbert responded.
Post-celebration discussions and a closing ceremony are slated for Saturday, followed by a well-deserved holiday. The Bayern is expected to bid farewell to some key performers like national player Nick Weiler-Babb, who may join European rivals with superior financial offers in the summer.
