KCC, who won early, was relentless in the third quarter. Lee Keun-hwi added back-to-back 3-pointers at the beginning of the quarter, and Lee Seung-hyun, who is struggling alone among the key members, defended the basket firmly and commanded the court and did not allow the chase.




KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin's 'Shock Therapy' also hit the mark. Leon Williams, who used Dionte Burton full-time instead of the undulating Dionte Burton, responded with a double-double early in the third quarter.

KCC, who scored three points in the fourth quarter, followed by Lee Keun-hwi, Yeo Jun-hyung and Williams, widened the score gap at all despite Sono Sixman Jung Sung-jo's consecutive three-point shots.

As the lead continued by more than 30 points even five minutes after the fourth quarter, the KCC bench gave six-men, including Song Dong-hoon, Lee Chan-young and Yeo Jun-hyung, a chance to play, and 59 seconds before the end, Williams also gave a break and won a great victory with only domestic players.
