A foul was declared in LG Doo Kyung-min's three-point shooting motion with 0.5 seconds left before the end of the game. If all three free throws were put in, it was possible to turn the tables. KT has applied for a foul challenge. LG lost hope as it was corrected as it was not a foul.
LG desperately needed to escape the losing streak, but it couldn't be pointed. It was too hard to fill the gap where the team's core, option 1 Maray, was missing due to injury. Maray was injured against Ulsan Hyundai Mobis on the 3rd. At least four weeks away has been confirmed. The defense is holding on, but the offense shows no breakthrough. LG manager Cho Sang-hyun said, "(He is blocking the number of runs in the 70-point range. Scoring is the problem."
The main guns, Doo Kyung-min and Jeon Sung-hyun, do not have 100% of their sense of play. Both have just returned from injury. The destructive power of Daryl Monroe, the remaining foreign player, is also somewhat disappointing. Director Cho Sang-hyun said, "(Two) Kyung-min and (former) Sung-hyun will solve it. Monroe's score should also come out more. A foreign player should be responsible for 15 to 20 points." On this day, Doo Kyung-min scored 19 points, but Monroe scored 12 points and Jeon Sung-hyun only scored five points.
Coach Cho Sang-hyun was ashamed of his fans. Ahead of this season, LG had a big change in its squad, including sending out Lee Jae-do (Sono) and Lee Kwan-hee (DB) and recruiting Doo Kyung-min and Jeon Sung-hyun. I ambitiously predicted a changed basketball, but it didn't go my way at all. Lee Jae-do and Lee Kwan-hee, who left the team, are playing well, while the new players, Doo Kyung-min and Jeon Sung-hyun, struggled due to injuries. Fans deserve a lot of disappointment. Director Cho said, `I'm sorry to the fans. It's just that we're off to a bad start, but if you trust us and wait, we can rebound"I promised.
Of course, it is not already a situation to be discouraged. Coach Cho Sang-hyun believed that the opportunity would definitely come. It's when Maray returns. Coach Cho Sang-hyun said, `Honestly, the performance is not bad right now. I did well in the game and lost at the end. "I'm behind by 20 rebounds, and I'll get better when Maray comes." Of course, it is difficult to fall further. Coach Cho said, `In the end, the goal of the playoffs is two to three games away from the top five. "First of all, let's break the losing streak and the future is important."
