The gust of wind from Korea Gas Corporation is unusual.
6 wins and 1 loss. It’s the lone lead.
Korea Gas Corporation’s power limit seemed to be in sight when it lost to Changwon LG in the opening game by three points. Before the season, the three-guard of Korea Gas Corporation Joseph Bellangel, Kim Nak-hyun, and Jung Sung-woo was very powerful.
Most of the coaches said, “We cannot be subject to gas construction as much as external pressure capabilities. We are very solid organizationally.”
However, weaknesses existed. The three-guard system cannot be used for long. In the end, mismatches are created at the match point, and because the average height is small, it is very disadvantageous in rebounding.
There are solid big men such as Lee Dae-hun, Shin Seung-min, and Shin Joo-young, but they are not high. Andrew Nicholson, the No. 1 foreign player, has the best shooting ability and scoring ability in the league, but his weaknesses in defense under the basket have always been pointed out.
Korea Gas Corporation was evaluated as a dark horse in the sixth round. It was a common perception that Korea Gas Corporation is highly likely to become a sample of “lost but handsome.”
However, the typhoon started with a 30-point victory over Wonju DB (92-62). It beat Seoul Samsung 76-70 and Anyang Jeonggwanjang 97-64.
They defeated Busan KCC 80-58 and Seoul SK 91-76. And even Suwon KT scored 14 points in a stormy fourth quarter to produce an 82-74 come-from-behind victory.
What is the cause of the gust of the Korea Gas Corporation.
Kang must be picked. He took the helm of Korea Gas Corporation last season. Back then, Korea Gas Corporation was an ambiguous team. Doo Kyung-min moved to the team, and Kim Nak-hyun was injured. There was also an issue over Lee Dae-sung during the off-season.
The power itself was not impressive. There are Kim Nak-hyun and Nicholson, but it was true that the objective power was lower than that of other teams. Jung Sung-woo was recruited as a FA, but there were many evaluations that the impact would not be significant.
Kang planted “One Team Spirit” for now. He maximized the team chemistry. Nicholson, a former NBA player, even called Kang “the world’s best leader.” Of course, there are exaggerations, but it is true that he is absolutely trusted by the team ace.
Coach Kang’s soft charisma can be seen on the court. Gas Corporation players are very active. If you look at their performance, you can understand it quickly. They constantly play physical strength. Even if they go similarly in the first half, they run like a storm when they see a loophole in the opponent’s physical strength in the second half.
The team also had good traffic control. I gave Bellangel the ace role. He used it as the main ball handler, and deployed Kim Nak-hyeon, who was not fully fit due to his injury, to create a powerful backcourt jeans. With exquisite rotation, he maintained pressure while working hard to manage physical strength of players. He maximized utilization of Nicholson, who has good attack power. If an opponent shows weakness on the outside, if there is a three-point shot or a mismatch under the basket, he focuses on targeting under the basket. He is also good at drawing sketches to perform offensive work.
Nicholson’s order to target under the basket using a double screen in the match against KT is a representative example.
Bellangel’s awakening and Nicholson’s rediscovery are also notable. In an ordinary Asian quarter, Bellangel succeeded in losing weight and improved its speed. The team boasts one of the best drive-and-kick distributed to the outside after penetrating under the basket. Shin Seung-min, Shin Joo-young, and Kwak Jung-hoon will place them at corners or on the wing and score three-pointers. Nicholson, Pick & Pop are also impressive. Furthermore, Nicholson has displayed robust defense capabilities, which have been pointed out as weaknesses, and displayed good performance. While appointing Kim Nak-hyun, it is also impressive that the team adjusts the playing time.
In addition, Lee Dae-heon, who was sluggish last season, was revived, and Shin Seung-min and Shin Joo-young continue to grow. 스포츠토토
Some experts rate that Korea Gas Corporation received the most reflective benefits from the “hard call.” Half is true. With its strong external pressure defense, Korea Gas Corporation breaks the opponent’s flow and creates an upward trend. However, it is not easy without thorough organization, performance, and team chemistry. There are several variables to see how the company’s initial gust will be. There is a high possibility that existing powerhouses will reorganize their power from the second round. After the A-match break, the team’s power itself will change. However, it is undeniable that Korea Gas Corporation was initially a strong candidate for the advance to the semi-finals or the semi-finals.
