There are still many variables left. However, it is unlikely to collapse easily. It is a gust of wind from Daegu Korea Gas Corporation.
Seven wins and one loss. He is the lone No. 1 player. The content of the game is even more shocking. It's overwhelming.
The ORTG, which is the expected score per 100 shots, is a whopping 115.0. The expected number of runs per 100 shots is 90.0. The netting, which means the difference between gains and losses, is a whopping 25.1.
Both offense and defense are No. 1 in the league.
Strong big men appeared this season. The most notable part is the best one-two punch in the league.
Goyang Sono, where Lee Jung-hyun is holding out. I brought in Alan Williams. Well deserved the league's best one-two punch. Last season's regular league MVP Lee Sun-Albano's Wonju DB recruited Chinanu Okuaku, who is considered the best big man. He was the strongest candidate. Kim Sun-hyung and Jamil Warney of Seoul SK, Huh Hoon of Suwon KT, and Raytheon Hammons were also qualified.
However, the expectations were completely wrong. The best one-two punches at the start of the season are Sam Joseph Bellangel and Andrew Nicholson.
Nicholson ranks third in average score (21.4 points), eighth in rebound (8.3), and Bellangel ranks 13th in average score (15.3 points) and fourth in assist (6.0). In terms of average records alone, it is 2% short of the top position.
However, when you look at the actual contribution to the game, it is completely different.
First of all, Nicholson's 3-point shooting success rate is 50.9%. It's second in the league. First place is Kwak Jung-hoon (52.2 percent), who does not run much time. In a nutshell, it's a crazy hit rate. Nicholson ranks second in PER, which comprehensively measures team contribution with 34.5. No. 1 is Samsung's Coffey Coburn.
It ranks 14th in netting (35.3) and 12th in the league with 65.5% of TS (true shooting%), which provides efficient scoring figures. Nicholson's shot to and from the inside and outside is 100% full of substance.
Vellangel's PER is 13th (22.6) and netting is 33rd (13.4). TS ranked 18th (60.4 percent). He is overwhelmingly No. 1 in three of the main ball handler guards of the 10 clubs.
The two players have completely filled their weaknesses this season. Nicholson had a weakness in defense. Shooting ability was one of the best players in the league, but there were problems in rebounding and defending. However, he is showing explosive efficiency while focusing on defense this season. Vellangel was completely metamorphosed as he lost weight. Until last season, he was rated as 'good guard, but 2% short in the top class', but he is no behind compared to Heo Hoon Lee Jung-hyun and Lee Sun-bano this season. Rather, the balance between offense and defense is overwhelming them. The initial gust of the gas works is unusual. It's all the more unusual because the league's best one-two punch, Belangel-Nicholson, shows off his stable health. Reporter Ryu Dong-hyuk: sfryu@sportschosun.com
