Even with Heo Woong and Lee Seung-hyun, they collapsed in the 6th round. Still, the future is bright.

Jeonju KCC failed to maintain a 16-point lead with 72-77 in the 3rd game of the 2022-23 SKT A-Dot Pro Basketball Round of 6 playoff against Seoul SK held at Jeonju Indoor Gymnasium on the 7th, and lost again, eventually allowing a sweep series. finished playing basketball

KCC, which could not continue its lead by 15 points in the second game, led by a large score this time, but was defeated by a come-from-behind defeat. This is KCC’s all-season, which can be somewhat futile.

Until last summer, KCC had big dreams. Heo Woong, the KBL top scorer, and Lee Seung-hyun, the best player in the league, were recruited for a huge amount of 1.5 billion won. It was a choice that definitely filled the gap between Lee Jung-hyun’s transfer and Song Gyo-chang’s military enlistment.

However, the results are disappointing compared to the beginning. Even with Heo Woong, Lee Seung-hyun, and La Gun-ah, he pulled himself into spring basketball. There were variables such as injuries to key players and deterioration in physical condition, and in particular, the ups and downs in Laguna’s performance were so obvious that the aging curve had to be suspected.

All of these are consequential stories. Who would have predicted KCC’s sluggish performance? Now is the time to analyze why it had to end this way.

But you don’t have to keep your head down. Even if KCC spent a lot of money preparing for this season, it was not a ‘win-now’ season in the end. The real thing is the 2023-24 season when Song Gyo-chang, the ‘King of Jeonju’, returns. Under the assumption that everyone is healthy, KCC, where Song Gyo-chang will return, will definitely be a different team. That’s why I’m already looking forward to November.

Song Gyo-chang has definitely improved in business. He has many offensive resources such as Heo Hoon, Kim Nak-hyun, and Park Joon-young, so he focuses on other parts rather than scoring. Rather good situation. The defense has greatly increased. Of course, I can’t be 100% satisfied because I’m playing against D-League players, but I proved my ability to be a leader in a defensive situation.

KCC, where Song Gyo-chang will return, can play the transition game that put them at the top of the regular league in the past. As long as there is a guard who can accurately pass the pass to Song Kyo-chang, who runs with the now departed Yoo Hyun-joon and Lee Jung-hyun, he can show more than static basketball like this season. 메이저사이트

Also, KCC will be able to have better foreign players as Laguna’s partners. The salary cap for foreign players increased to $800,000 after tax. KCC can use $500,000 if the remaining foreign players are filled with two, and $450,000 if only one is recruited. It’s definitely more relaxed than before.

In addition, rookie Song Dong-hun has grown even more through the playoffs in the 6th round. With the exception of Park Moo-bin in the next rookie draft, it is difficult to find immediate sense of power among the number 1 resources, so KCC should go all-in on Song Dong-hoon. If he has definitely stepped up through this experience, KCC’s No. 1 thirst can be quenched. He also has to become a guard to give the pass to Song Kyo-chang mentioned earlier.

It’s a disappointing season in many ways, but if you look after it, KCC is full of bright future. I also got homework to prepare a plus power other than the main player. Summer this year has become so important. The time has come for them to prepare to become champion contenders once again.
