You should be average. What should I do with Busan KCC button, coach Jeon Chang-jin → All colleagues sigh

"It's homework for the button." Busan KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin couldn't laugh even with the victory. This is because of KCC's 'Dilemma'Dionte Burton (30) this season. Busan KCC beat Anyang Chung Kwan-jang 94:68 at home on the 25th '2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball' KCC (10 wins and 11 losses) snapped a four-game losing streak.

The key player before the game was by far Burton. He returned to the KBL stage in KCC's uniform this season. He is leading the team as KCC's first offensive option. The problem is the ups and downs. He's been playing jagged all season. In fact, he scored 40 points in 40 minutes in the game against Suwon KT on October 19th. However, he only scored one point in the game against SK in Seoul on November 9.

Coach Jeon did well twice in the opening match against KT and Daegu Korea Gas Corporation (December 12, 46 points) ahead of the showdown. I don't think it's easy to fix it." The former coach made a decision. I put the button on standby on the bench. Burton, who played late, clenched his teeth. He scored 18 points and seven rebounds in 20 minutes and 42 seconds, helping his team win. In particular, he showed positive performance by synergy with Choi Jun-yong, who returned from injury.




After the game, the former coach said "The contents of this game were quite good. The button should average out. It's hard because it's jagged. Choi Jun-yong is trying to understand the button a lot. We're talking a lot, too. However, synergy is relative when the two play together. Burton's defense was sloppy this game. I made good use of that part. You have to find a way to solve it when your opponent is tough and triple-defensive. That's Burton's homework."

It's the same for my colleagues to have a hard time with the button 'dilemma'. Heo Woong said "This game was leaning to 'one side". I don't think there's anything else to say. However, I think we should be competitive even when we are a strong team. Burton's one-on-one skills are certainly good when looking at basketball. He also performed in the National Basketball Association (NBA). I think I need to help the button do well. You have to study what can create synergy by running with buttons. Only when you show your strengths can your weaknesses be covered. I think we need to change that part quickly."
