The most popular professional basketball stars, brothers Heo Woong and Heo Hoon, will face off in the championship game.
Let’s take a look at the fierce verbal battle between two players who have yet to win.

Heo Woong, who led super team KCC’s postseason turnaround, and Heo Hoon, who helped KT advance to the championship game for the first time in 17 years with his fighting spirit after an injury.

″I think I sent 100 emoticons (to my brother). I feel so good, and so do I.″
[허웅/KCC]
″I don’t think I’ve ever seen (my younger brother) so happy on the bench.″
It has been 10 years since the brothers faced each other in the championship match since Moon Tae-jong and Moon Tae-young.
KCC coach Jeon Chang-chin knows both players well.
I guess I have no choice but to bend my arms inward, right?

″(Heo Woong) asked me to buy him food, so I went out and found him with Heo Hoon. At a very famous meat restaurant, Heo Woong ate bulgogi and Heo Hoon ate sirloin. I was very upset.″

″This is a frame-up. It’s true that I ate sirloin.″
Neither player has any experience winning a championship.
You can’t help but have a stronger competitive spirit, right?
[허웅/KCC]
″The reason I said 4-0 is because I want to win the championship in Busan, so I really want to finish in Busan.″
[허훈/kt]
″I said it was 4-0, but I don’t want to lose to KCC even once, so I will do my best (I will do my best) so that we can raise the championship trophy.″
The sibling showdown begins the day after tomorrow.
