“In the regular league, there might have been a bit of trauma with Anyang KGC being weak. It’s great that we won the first game and gained confidence in that.”

Seoul SK coach Jeon Hee-cheol showed satisfaction in winning the championship game once morest the defending champion KGC.

SK defeated Anyang KGC 90-79 in the first leg of the pro basketball championship match for the 2021-22 season held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium in Seoul on the 2nd. SK was thoroughly inferior to KGC with 1 win and 5 losses in the regular league, but it was different in the championship game. In the first half, they kept a steady battle, and in the second half, they played SK’s own fast-paced basketball to win.

In an interview following the match, coach Jeon Hee-cheol said, “There was a hurdle in the middle of the first game, but we caught it and put a lot of pressure on it. He led the atmosphere well.” “The score difference wasn’t great, but the first half was satisfactory. I did,” he looked back.

On this day, SK succeeded properly in the measures it had prepared once morest KGC and won the battle for resourcefulness. In particular, Se-geun Oh, who played an active role in the semifinals and quarterfinals PO, was properly blocked. Manager Jeon Hee-cheol said, “When Se-geun Oh was strong, he scored 8 to more than 10 points in the first and second quarters. I asked Jamil Warney for a matchup.” He said he had to play up to 7 games in the drama, but following looking at it for a long time, he had to make his stamina difficult.” Director Jeon said, “Actually, I hate it when a foreign player has a matchup for a Korean player. It hurts my pride.

He focused on SK’s own basketball without being greatly shaken by his opponent’s performance. On this day, KGC Jeon Seong-hyeon scored 23 points, including five 3-pointers, but might not shake SK’s defense. Manager Jeon Hee-cheol said, “Honestly, there is no defense once morest Jeon Seong-hyeon. It’s something you put in well. But you shouldn’t be hit by the other side because you’re attracted to Jeon. No. We allow 20 points, but it is important to block the attacks that result from him.”

Most importantly, it was a victory once morest KGC, which had struggled throughout the regular season. Coach Jeon Hee-cheol said, “They said that if they win the first game, there is a 70.8% chance of winning. But that probability doesn’t seem to be very important.” “The players might have suffered a bit of trauma rather than the probability. I heard a lot regarding it. I think it’s great that I gained confidence in that part by winning the first game.”
