“Crass, disgusting feeling”: German basketball star is upset via Netflix
At the Olympics, the German basketball players around Moritz Wagner failed unhappily. A Netflix documentary brings up the feelings again-the NBA star sees his privacy injured.
Sports documentaries that give an insight into the everyday life of big teams are very trendy at the streaming services. Often the promised look behind the scenes is not so revealing – because of course the clubs in most cases pay attention to what is to be seen and what is not.
Sometimes there are unpleasant surprises. For example for Moritz Wagner, the German basketball player, who is part of the new Netflix documentary “Court of Gold”. The makers of the documentation filmed the largest basketball teams during the Summer Olympic Games. In his podcast, however, Wagner clarifies: “I don’t see this documentary.”
Moritz Wagner was filmed in the cabin
The NBA basketball player from the Orlando Magic is powerful-especially about a scene. In it he can be seen after the semi-final defeat of the German team against France. A huge disappointment for Wagner and his teammates, the 27-year-old sat in the cabin afterwards. Wagner annoys that this private scene can now be seen on Netflix.
He feels injured in his privacy. “It would have been nice if someone had asked me,” he says in the podcast. He was also not aware that he was filmed at all. He never noticed anything from the documentary. “I didn’t notice anything, no camera! I don’t remember someone filmed there,” he tells his podcast sidekick Arne Greskowiak. In fact, the series was not about the German team.
When he had seen the clip now, he felt a “blatant, nasty feeling”. For Moritz Wagner, the topic of the Olympic Games is still very emotionally occupied. That is why he doesn’t want to look at the documentary, which has recently been seen on Netflix, – he was afraid that “feelings come up again that are very intense”.
