It was the home team, Changwon LG, that succeeded in taking the lead in the last game of the playoff semifinals.
Yoo Yu-sang made consecutive stone points in the early part of the first quarter, and Gu-tang thrilled the crowd with a steal followed by a hot two-handed dunk.
In the second quarter, Yang Hong-seok scored 8 points, including two 3-pointers, and LG finished the first half with a 10-point lead.
KT’s great counterattack began in the third quarter.
KT, who had been gradually accumulating points in a situation where turnovers by LG players continued, turned the game back to square one with Bath’s consecutive stone points.
KT finally succeeded in turning the tables thanks to a shot from behind by Bath, who won a 1-on-1 match with Marey, and widened the score with a goal by Heo Hoon, who broke through a double team.
In the last quarter, LG showed concentration and trailed by two points, but KT ran away again thanks to Bass’ consecutive scores and Heo Hoon’s fast break play.
In addition to Moon Jeong-hyun’s 3-pointer that sealed the game at the end of the game, KT achieved a thrilling come-from-behind victory, 75 to 65.
“I am happy that I have helped the team even a little. I will improve even more in this championship game and next year, so please keep watching and I will become a scary Moon Jeong-hyun.”
Thanks to the great performance of Bass, who recorded a ‘double-double’ of 40 points and 13 rebounds, KT won against LG and advanced to the championship game with a series record of 3 wins and 2 losses.
KT’s opponent, which ranked 3rd in the regular season and advanced to the championship game for the first time in 17 years, is Busan KCC, which came in 5th place in the regular season after defeating 1st place Wonju DB in the playoffs.
This is the first time that a ‘brotherly match’ between KCC Heo Woong and KT Heo Hoon took place in a championship game.
The first leg of the championship match between the two teams, which will be held with 4 wins out of 7, will be held in Suwon, KT’s home stadium, this coming Saturday afternoon.
