Professional Basketball KT Counterattacks LG at Home... Semifinal PO ‘Let’s Go to the Final 5th Game’
Suwon KT, a professional basketball team, advanced to the final 5th game of the semifinal playoffs (PO).
KT won 89-80 against Changwon LG in the 4th home game of the 2023-2024 Jeong Kwan-Jang Professional Basketball Semifinal Playoffs (3 wins out of 5) held at the KT Arena in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do on the 22nd.
KT, who took a breather from the brink of 1 win and 2 losses, and LG, who failed to capitalize on the opportunity to win a ticket to the championship, will move to the Changwon Gymnasium in Gyeongnam at 7 pm on the 24th and hold the 'last match' in the 5th game. 온라인카지노
The team that wins this game will play the championship game on the 27th against Busan KCC, who is already in the championship game, with 4 wins out of 7.
This is the first time in three years since the match between KCC and E-Land (KCC 3 wins, 2 losses) in the 2020-2021 season that the PO of the semifinals of professional basketball has advanced to the final 5th game.
If we expand the scope to the 6th round PO, Carrot and Hyundai Mobis (Carrot 3 wins, 2 losses) had a close match in the 5th game in the 6th round last season.
The content of the game was similar to the third game.
However, unlike the 3rd game, KT smiled this time.
In Game 3, Suwon KT maintained the lead throughout the game, but allowed LG to catch up at the end of the fourth quarter, and LG eventually won with Won-sang Yoon's buzzer-beating 3-pointer just before the end of the game.
On this day, KT was ahead throughout the game and took the lead.
However, on this day, LG lacked support as Assem Marey, the key player behind the goal, was sent off for five fouls with 7 minutes and 48 seconds left in the game.
Marey was already in foul trouble with his 4th foul during the 3rd quarter, while KT Paris Bass, who committed 3 fouls in the 1st quarter alone, stayed on the court until the end without fouling, and the joys and sorrows of both teams were mixed.
LG's lead grew to 10 points after Marey was ejected for five fouls, but Yang Hong-seok and Yang Jun-seok's quick attacks continued to lead LG to 78-73.
For LG, it was a situation where they could once again hold out hope for the same result as the third game.
At this time, there were 5 minutes remaining.
However, for KT, Bass came forward to solve the problem.
Bath immediately scored 2 points to make it 7 points again, then added 4 points in a row with a free throw and a 3-pointer, creating a double-digit gap of 84-73 3 minutes and 14 seconds before the end, clearly blocking LG's pursuit.
With 2 minutes and 39 seconds left, Bath hit another 3-pointer to cut the lead to 12, 87-75, and took responsibility for scoring 9 points alone at the critical moment.
KT had a 'one-two punch' with Bass recording 32 points, 14 rebounds, and 4 steals, and Heo Hoon also adding 18 points.
For LG, Yang Hong-seok contributed with 18 points.
