Galis (30 pts) vs Petrovic (22 pts) | 1987 Eurobasket Semi-Final

Offense highlights of two legends of the european basketball, Drazen Petrovic and Nikos Galis, in the semi-final game of the european basketball championships, back in 1987.

Nick usually outscored Drazen when they played against each other (Drazen had allways more options to pass the ball), but Greece rarely won against Yugoslavia. This is one of those rare games. Greece won 81-77 and progressed to the final of Eurobasket 1987. Galis scored 30 points while Petrovic scored 22.

Greece had managed to beat Yugoslavia again in the preliminary round of the same tournament, when Galis scored 44 points and Drazen 18.

The two legends had a very good relationship. Once, when Drazen Petrovic was asked if he would like to play with Nick Galis in the same team,he responded: "Yeah, I'd like to play with him. I'd like to PASS the ball to him and let HIM score.
