For both teams, a strong physical fight was a basic option.
There was a crucial mismatch. The Korea Gas Corporation selected Ndoye instead of Nicholson. It was to take advantage of Samsung's loose under-the-goal attack without Coburn, and options accordingly.
Nicholson is a veteran. There was also an intention to prepare for the match in the second half of the game.
The silver pottery was powerful. In particular, after Lee Won-seok entered the bench due to the attacker's foul, he completely dominated the bottom of the goal.
A superb under-the-goal pass to Shin Joo-young, two-on-two with Kim Nak-hyun, and Lee Jung-hyun's under-the-goal breakthrough to the block. 8-2, the lead of the gas corporation. Ndoye dominated the first five minutes of the first quarter.
From Samsung's point of view, it could not be helped. With Kim Nak-hyun's three-run shot, Samsung's operation time.
Udon Prefecture also joined the three-store market. Samsung's option to break through the basket has been deleted. It's because of silver pottery. He tried to target the mismatch one-on-one, but it led to an inaccurate outer shot. In the end, a perfect lead for Gas Corporation by 28-10, 18 points.
Kim Nak-hyun was strong at the beginning of the second quarter. However, Samsung was not easy either. In the first quarter, Samsung's dominant position was Glenn Robinson III. However, he failed to make good use of his attacks.
In the second quarter, he finally moved. Korea Gas Corporation entrusted Shin Joo-young and Shin Seung-min to Glenn Robinson. Unlike Eun Doe, he targeted the rim with a face-up. Gutang's three-pointer, Glenn Robinson's successive under-the-goal breakthrough, 32-17, chasing by 15 points, and Gas Corporation's operational time.
Belangel and Nicholson were put in. Before the game, coach Kang Hyuk said "We will increase the playing time for rotation members"
After receiving the staggers screen, Kwak Jung-hoon scored a three-point front. Nicholson added to the scoring. Lee Won-dae's U-foul came out in Belangel's exquisite breakthrough. Again, the gap widened by more than 20 points. In the end, the first half ended with a lead of 50-29 and 21 points from Gas Corporation.

Samsung's airlift system without Coburn was in disarray.
Glenn Robinson III's second-quarter paceup became less efficient as time went on. All Samsung could do was raise its pace.
With no choice but to use a small lineup, it was best to make an early offense and defense with a quick change in offense and defense and to make a slugfest.
Samsung's offense and defense got faster in the third quarter.
However, one of Gas Corporation's strengths was its solid transition defense. Here, Ndoye was still dominating under the basket.
In addition, Kim Nak-hyun and Belangel were powerful inside and outside. Kim Joon-il's offensive rebound was also impressive. As a result, the score gap of more than 20 points was not easily narrowed.
In the third quarter, Samsung gave Glenn Robinson a break at the end. A situation where there are only domestic players. The Korea Gas Corporation also excluded silver pottery and did not deploy Nicholson. It was a device to test the strength of the main players and how to use bench resources from the perspective of the Korea Gas Corporation, which confirmed the round of six. From the perspective of Korea Gas Corporation, Samsung was the most ideal PO preparation match partner.
The gap widened further. 68-44 in the third quarter, a 24-point lead. The third quarter ended. In fact, the game is over.
Samsung was completely defeated in its last home game this season. The Coburn-free void was clearly revealed. In addition, he was helpless about the strong pressure of the gas corporation and Eun Do-ye's control under the basket.
Except for Kim Nak-hyun, Korea Gas Corporation gave most of its main players a break. Nicholson and Belangel were not used much, and Jung Sung-woo was not put in at all.
