After the A-match break, the atmosphere has changed rapidly. The intense sixth-place fight is being sorted out. However, the fight for second place is fierce. In the two-way race between Changwon LG and Ulsan Hyundai Mobis, Suwon KT is emerging as a strong dark horse.

At first, the fight for sixth place was a pressing matter of interest.

Each team played 40 to 41 games. Wonju DB remained in an uneasy sixth place. There was also defending champion Busan KCC and Anyang Jeong Kwan-jang, who reorganized the battle line.




However, DB brought Omari Spellman. The battle lines have been completely overhauled. 2 wins and 1 loss right after the A match break. It's not that bad.

KCC lost back-to-back games. Choi Joon-yong and Song Kyo-chang were again out of the lineup due to injuries. Jeong Kwan-jang is still raising his pace with two consecutive wins.

However, the game difference between DB and Jeonggwanjang is 3 games. However, it is actually a four-game difference.




If the ratio is tied, the opponent will be determined entirely. DB is perfectly ahead with 3 wins and 1 loss. There are two remaining games between the two teams. If Jeong Kwan-jang wins all of them, it will be 3 wins and 3 losses. If the relative total power is equal, the difference between gains and losses is determined. The DB is +46 at this point. DB won 98 to 67 on December 4 last year and 74 to 57 on December 19. In other words, even if Jeong Kwan-jang wins two games, it is really not easy to reverse the difference between gains and losses. In other words, it seems to become a DB in 6th place. There are 13 games left for both teams. It is arithmetically possible, but it is not easy.

The fight for second place is about getting a point. LG and Hyundai Mobis have lost two consecutive games.

LG has the aftermath of Yang Joon-seok and Tamayo being replaced by the national team. The attack is falling off. Hyundai Mobis' Ham Ji-hoon has returned, but Sean Long, Gage Prim and Guardjin still do not work well together. The performance is in a state of decline.




With the two teams sluggish, Suwon KT is gaining momentum with three consecutive wins.

The gap between second-ranked LG and third-ranked Hyundai Mobis is only 0.5 game, and the gap with fourth-ranked KT is only one game.

KT's power is strong. Park Joon-young and Han Hee-won are out of the line due to injuries. Core shooter Han Hee-won received four to five weeks of treatment for an elbow injury. However, there are enough alternative cards.

There are defensive specialists Moon Sung-gon and versatile pronouns Moon Jung-hyun, and Ha Yoon-ki is sluggish at this point.

Here's Heo Hun, one of the league's best guards, and Kagulan, a formidable Asian quarter. In addition, Hammons is on the rise, and newcomer Jordan Morgan is exuding a fairly good force.

KT is serious. In particular, defense is changing stably. The ups and downs were severe due to the injuries of the cores and the sluggishness of foreign players at the beginning of the season. However, as the game goes on, the balance of offense and defense is gradually becoming stronger.

Heo Hun's change is also important. Heo Hoon, who had not been able to train properly due to off-season injuries, has lost power due to poor fielding rate and lack of activity. However, the performance is increasing little by little.
