It was disadvantageous in many ways.
Everything depends on this board.
LG has never won a championship since its foundation. It was a boring championship curse. For 28 years, it was an opportunity to relieve the indifference.
It was so desperate.

There has been no four consecutive wins since three consecutive losses in domestic basketball as well as in the NBA. In the end, the last winner was LG.

Oh Jae-hyun, who returned from a back injury, pressed hard. He stopped Yang Jun-seok. Jump ball. SK's right to attack and Hicks' free throws were scored twice. a four-point chase. In the end, it ended with LG's lead by 27-23, four points.
LG gained momentum in the first half, but two errors at the critical moment, eventually failing to gain the upper hand. SK was sluggish as it was inferior in rebounding in the first half. However, he promised the second half while saving Warney as much as he could.
However, SK did not have good cohesion in defense. Before the game, SK manager Jeon Hee-chul said, `LG will definitely come up with a pattern of making three corners. It's 100 percent. He stressed to the players that they must check the outside three points." However, LG's four three-runs were concentrated in the second quarter.
