A professional basketball game between Suwon KT Sonic Boom and Goyang Sono Sky Gunners held at Seosuwon Chilbo Gymnasium in Gyeonggi-do on the 5th.

"KT has nothing that can be called a weakness."

Coach Kim Seung-gi of the Goyang Sono professional basketball team acknowledged that Suwon KT, which has finally become 'complete', is a strong team with no weaknesses.

Sono lost 81-86 to KT in the 2023-2024 CheongKwanJang Professional Basketball regular league away game held at Suwon KT Arena in Gyeonggi-do on the 5th.

Sono, who was behind by as many as 16 points at one point, showed strength in the second half of the third quarter and achieved a comeback of 80-79 with 2 minutes and 51 seconds left before the end of the game, but lacked courage.

Coach Kim said at a press conference after the game, “(KT) players have so many abilities. They have no weaknesses. Neither (Changwon) LG nor (Wonju) DB have weaknesses. Everyone has weaknesses, so they have no weaknesses.” “I had to dig in and fight, but it was difficult,” he said.

He added, "Even though we tried to find weaknesses today, it was difficult because we couldn't deal with (the attack). This is something we will quickly resolve by strengthening our strength next year."

In this season's professional basketball, which has passed the beginning and is entering the middle, the three teams mentioned by Coach Kim are leading the way.

KT, which had a 6-game winning streak, tied for 2nd place with Changwon LG with 12 wins and 5 losses.The gap with the leading DB (15 wins, 3 losses) is two and a half games.

KT, whose ace Heo Hoon joined on the 15th of last month after completing his military service, had all of its key players gathered on the court after a long time, with even starting center Ha Yoon-ki playing after shaking off an injury.

Even before his return, Ha Yoon-ki was in full swing with 24 points and 7 rebounds.The field goal success rate was a whopping 75%.Heo Hoon also scored 22 points and played the game stably without making a single mistake.

KT director Song Young-jin was satisfied, saying, “Yoongi is doing his job well. I think he will get better.”

However, Director Song evaluated that KT's power was inferior compared to LG and DB.

It was thought that the fact that the starting foreign player was a forward rather than a center could be a weakness.KT's main gun Paris Bass enjoys breaking through and shooting from the outside rather than attacking under the goal.

Coach Song said, "We are a strong team under the goal, but there is a weak point. We need to try a lot of cooperative defense, and if (the opponent's) outside guns explode, the game becomes more difficult. We need to be more systematic about the players' stamina and tactics." "he said.

However, he added, "The players' will now is good. They are working hard, and looking at this atmosphere, I think we are at a level where we can compete with those teams (LG, DB). Although we are at a little disadvantage, we will do our best." 토토사이트
