Samsung Life Insurance took the playoff game to the final fifth game.
Samsung Life Insurance won 51-48 after taking the lead from the beginning in the fourth PO match against BNK at Yongin Indoor Gymnasium on the 9th, setting the entire series to 2 wins and 2 losses to determine the team that advanced to the championship match in Busan, BNK's home. Samsung Life Insurance was on the verge of a complete defeat by BNK in the first and second games, but it showed tremendous backing to catch all the 3rd and 4th games held in Yongin, its home.
Head coach of Samsung Life Insurance Ha Sang-yoon said, `Both the players are down anyway, but I thought we should win at least the defense, but I think it came out well"He also played well in the third and fourth games, leading or equal from the first quarter. I think it's the same for Game 5."
On this day, both team players were physically exhausted, and their overall shooting sense was not good. Samsung Life suffered a terrible slump in throwing 15 3-pointers and BNK throwing 21 to make two.
Coach Ha said "We weren't good either, but we weren't good with the opponent's shooting."In terms of momentum, we can say that we have the advantage with two consecutive wins, but both the regular league and PO were weak in Busan. "In the end, I think we will continue our momentum only when we are ahead of the power fight and defense in the first quarter."," he stressed.
While Bae Hye-yoon also held the center of the offense and defense with 12 points and 10 rebounds, guard Jo Su-ah supported the back with 11 points and 8 rebounds. Director Ha said, `Bae Hye-yoon is natural, and in the end, I think Jo Su-ah holds the key of this series. It will be a lot of pressure, but I think he will do well in Game 5 as well."
