It was a 'big match'. It was a clash between LG trying to run away and Korea Gas Corporation trying to chase down. Before the game, LG was ranked third with 19 wins and 13 losses, and Korea Gas Corporation was ranked fourth with 18 wins and 14 losses. A fierce ranking fight was foreshadowed. A cloud crowd of 4,950 people gathered at the stadium.
LG's key player was 'Ace' Mare. He has not played for a while since suffering a calf injury in the match against SK in Seoul on the 1st. Maray returned to the court after 29 days. Maray replaced Darryl Monroe with 2:42 left in the first quarter.
Korea Gas Corporation was desperate for Bellangel's performance. Vellangel has thrown 29 3-pointers in his last five games, scoring just three. The Korea Gas Corporation was in dire need of Bellangel's outer firepower.

The last person who laughed was LG. Korea Gas Corp. missed Nicholson's last shot, and LG cheered by catching an offensive rebound.
