LG Director Cho Sang-hyeon
Changwon LG coach Cho Sang-hyun emphasized that we must be especially careful about the ‘war of nerves’ with Suwon KT in the 2023-2024 Jeong Kwan-Jang Professional Basketball Semifinal Playoffs (PO, 3 wins in 5 games).
Coach Cho met with reporters ahead of the first game of the semifinal PO against Suwon KT held at Changwon Gymnasium on the 16th and said, “(Asem) Marey told me to pay a fine not only to KBL but also to me if he receives a technical foul.”
He added, “It is the ace’s destiny to have the opponent defend strongly. He must overcome that with a cool-headed attitude.” 슬롯사이트
KT fought fiercely with Ulsan Hyundai Mobis in the 6th PO and displayed a fierce battle of nerves.
Hyundai Mobis foreign players Kebe Aluma and Gage Prim were often seen getting excited by KT’s main gun Paris Bass’ ‘trash talking’.
‘Trash talking’ refers to unpleasant words or actions made to annoy an opponent.
Prim, who could not control his anger, was stopped by the referees while responding to Bass’ provocation in the fourth game, which was the last game.
In the first game between the two teams, 48 fouls were committed. Each team committed 24 times.
The average number of fouls for each team in this season’s regular league was 19.7. The largest number of teams was Daegu Korea Gas Corporation with 21.2.
This game, in which the referees had no choice but to blow their whistles frequently, took a whopping 2 hours and 19 minutes until the final buzzer sounded even though it did not go into overtime.
Coach Cho said, “I warned the KT players to be cautious about getting nervous. I asked them to play the game calmly,” and added, “I saw the PO match in the semifinals, so I believe the players will do well.”
There is no doubt about Bass’ skills, as he received the Foreign Player Award for this season’s regular league, but there are a lot of concerns at KT due to his easily excitable personality.
KT’s coach Song Young-jin said, “There are a lot of rough scenes when domestic players block the bass. The bass also need to remain calm. If they get excited, their emotions will become strong, so I’m concerned about that.”
He added, “This guy is also trying to be very serious. I don’t think he will be as excited as the Hyundai Mobis match.” 온라인 슬롯
