SK, where Warney and Kim Seon-hyung were silent, lost the match.

Seoul SK met Anyang KGC in the 3rd game of the 2022-2023 season professional basketball championship held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium on the 29th and lost 70-81.

SK won the first leg of the championship match. Kim Seon-hyung (187cm, G) and Jameel Warney (200cm, C) showed great performance. The two players defeated Byun Jun-hyung (187cm, G) and Omari Spellman (206cm, F) in an ace confrontation. Warney scored 23 points, and Kim Sun-hyung scored 22 points. It was SK that succeeded in ‘Molppang Basketball’.

However, the second round was somewhat different. KGC attached Moon Seong-gon (196cm, F) to Kim Seon-hyung. And the right breakthrough was clearly controlled. This was successful. Kim Seon-hyung, who played a big role in the first game, slowed down a bit in the second game. He recorded 10 assists, but only scored 10 points overall. In addition, Warney was tied with 9 points. As a result, SK only scored 67 points.

Then, SK coach Jeon Hee-cheol said, ahead of the third game, “Today, the team changed its direction. I faced this kind of defense in the regular season, but at that time I couldn’t completely change the direction because I had the next game. However, in the championship match, you have to stick with KGC. So I turned around completely. Today, we plan to use a variety of options rather than basketball,” he foreshadowed a change in team tactics.

The third round started like that. SK hit from the first quarter. First of all, it was great that the opponent’s outside score did not explode. SK allowed only 2 points in the first 5 minutes of the 1st quarter. Conversely, SK’s offense was hot. Even up to the beginning of the first quarter, the changes prepared were successful.

Still, Kim Sun-hyung’s role was great. However, Heo Il-yeong (196cm, F) helped score from the perimeter and Choi Bu-gyeong (200cm, F) from under the goal. As a result, SK widened the score gap to double digits from the beginning of the game. Heo Il-yeong scored 4 points and Choi Bu-kyung 5 points, making Kim Seon-hyung and Warney’s shoulders lighter.

However, it was regrettable that SK’s attack did not work at the end of the quarter. He scored 17 points in the first 7 minutes and 31 seconds of the game, but scored only 1 point after that.

SK’s 2nd quarter start was complied with. Choi Seong-won (184cm, G) scored a 3-point shot and Choi Bu-kyung added a goal under the net to widen the score gap. Afterwards, there was a crisis as Daryl Monroe (198cm, F), Lens Abando (187cm, G), and Park Ji-hoon (184cm, G) consecutively conceded runs, but Leon Williams (198cm, C), who replaced Warney, played the best role in the attack. . He alone put up 9 points in the second quarter alone. This is the reason why SK was able to widen the score gap.

Kim Seon-hyung scored 8 points in the first half, and Warney scored 4 points in the first half. Both players are disappointing performances compared to usual. Nevertheless, SK, with Williams, Choi Boo-kyung and Heo Il-young playing an active part, finished the first half with a score of 37-31. It was SK’s squad that washed away the sluggishness of the two players. 

The problem was in the second half. Even in the second half, Kim Sun-hyung still struggled. He only scored 0 points in the 3rd quarter. Warney, who was somewhat quiet in the first half, came back to life, but SK could not control Abando. In addition, Spellman and Oh Se-geun (200cm, C) also conceded points. SK, pushed back in the ace fight, allowed a comeback. However, by the end of the third quarter, the difference between the two teams was only 4 points. The difference of 4 points to SK, the master of reversal, was not a big score difference.

So the match went to the winner. Ace Warney and Kim Seon-hyung’s performance was important in the match. However, the two players were pushed back in the fight with Spellman and Oh Se-geun. Kim Sun-hyung scored two points with only free throws. Warney took 5 shots and missed them all. On the contrary, Spellman and Oh Se-geun combined for 17 points and flew. This is why Bukyung Choi scored 7 points in the 4th quarter, but SK could not pursue it to the end.토스카지노

In the 3rd game following the 2nd game, Kim Seon-hyung and Warney struggled against the opponent’s defense. Both players were tied at 10 points. The Yatoo success rate was even more disappointing. Warney tried 20 shots and scored 5, while Kim Sun-hyeong tried 13 and succeeded in 3. This ended up losing the game.

Still, you can’t just criticize the two players. This is because both players have shown off all their skills by doing their best from the second half of the season until now. Fitness was an issue. Former coach also said in an interview after the game, “Warney tried hard, but it didn’t work out. The line also looks physically difficult. We have to hope that the two players explode,” he said, referring to physical problems.

It’s a tough situation. Nevertheless, in order for SK to win, Kim Seon-hyung and Warney must explode like the first game. If both players remain silent in Game 4 and the rest of the series, SK’s chances of winning will drop significantly.
