Gidi: After I broke through, I was left open in the bottom corner. I believe Vucevic will make that three-pointer.
6686 Sports November 5th The NBA regular season continues. The Bulls reversed the 76ers 113-111 at the home court today.
Vucevic hit a three-pointer for the last shot. In an interview after the game, Gidi talked about assisting Vucevic to complete this key shot.
"The strategy at that time was basically to send the ball in first. Then, Kevin (Huerter) was going to come up and execute a pick-and-pop strategy. I was going to break through with the ball from the left, but he paused at that time. I thought he would come up earlier, but he didn't get there until about 8.8 seconds left. After that, when he came up, I tried to break through with the ball to create opportunities.
After I broke through from the left, they all shrunk a little, and then Vucevic made a key shot, so all I had to do was pass the ball to him, and he really helped us."
In this game, Gidi made 10 of 19 shots and scored 29 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assists. Vucevic made 8 of 14 shots and scored 19 points and 10 rebounds.
