-SK’s Fastball Basketball in Different Dimensions, Average 11.3
-Hyundai Mobis is 4th to allow minimum speed attack
-SK scored 70 points in five consecutive games
It is well known that SK’s biggest strength is speed. From the 2020-2021 season to the last season, SK ranked No. 1 in fastballs. This season, SK has displayed even more powerful fastball deployment capabilities. SK had an average of 11.3 fastballs in six games. The number is more than twice that of the runner-up, Goyang Sono (5.4).
In addition, the minimum number of fastballs in one game was seven against the Changwon LG Twins on Sunday. This means that he has accumulated at least 14 points through fastballs. Jeon’s idea of increasing the intensity of his fastballs is being put into practice in order to make the decision meaningless when it comes to physical struggle.
In addition to its strength, SK also has clear weaknesses. SK’s success rate for 3-pointers and 3-pointers is 5.3 percent and 22.2 percent, respectively, which are all the lowest. On the contrary, its 3-pointers are less than half that of the top-ranked Daegu Gas Corporation (11.9 points, 40.1 percent success rate).
Ulsan Hyundai Mobis needs to establish a clear line and run the game to jointly rank second. Hyundai Mobis has the second highest three-point shooting allowance (34.1 percent) among the 10 teams, but allowed only 4.5 fastballs to its opponents. The team ranks fourth with the minimum number of fastballs allowed. This is similar to LG’s (4.8). As the team has more guards that can be used than any other team, a task given to Hyundai Mobis to deal with SK Wyverns to tidy up its defense quickly after the attack.
Chances are high that Hyundai Mobis and SK will face off each other in the 70-point range. SK scored 95 points in its home opener against Anyang Jeong Kwan-jang, who made as many as 19 fastballs, and only scored 70 points in all five other games. Hyundai Mobis, which had recorded 88 points on average in four games since the season’s opening, also saw its firepower drop. In the last two games, it left 74.5 points. 스포츠토토
Considering that the only game SK committed more than 80 runs was the match against Daegu Korea Gas Corporation (91 runs) on the 3rd, the confrontation between the two teams may be more tight than expected. We wonder what kind of tricks Hyundai Mobis will take against SK, which ranks first in quick attack and third in minimum number of runs but has the weakness of 3-point shooting.
