SK Jeon Hee-chul, head coach of the men's professional basketball team in Seoul, sighed ahead of the new 2025-2026 season. Coach Jeon performed well every season after taking the helm of SK in the 2021-2022 season. He ranked 1st-3rd-4th in the regular league. In the 2021-2022 season, the club won its first 'integrated championship'. In the 2022-2023 and 2024-2025 seasons, he was the runner-up in the championship game. This is why SK is said to make it to the playoff (PO) stage easily this season. But he seemed to be worried ahead of him. Ahead of the first exhibition game of 2025 against Seoul Samsung held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium in Seoul on the 21st, coach Jeon said, `The preparation time for the season was too short. It's not a crying sound, but I didn't really prepare much."
SK had a big change ahead of the season. Kim Sun-hyung (37), who has been a key player in the attack, has moved to a free agent (FA). He changed into a Suwon KT uniform. SK has launched a reorganization by recruiting Kim Nak-hyun, Daryl Monroe, and Alvin Tolentino. But I didn't have enough time to work together. SK's official training start date for the new season was late because it even played the championship game last season. The KBL has set 60 days after the end of the season (the club's autonomy) as a prohibited period for group training. There were also variables. 'Ace' Ahn Young-joon (30) left due to an injury. Ahn Young-joon injured his thigh during the Korean national basketball team. He is also preoccupied with rehabilitation after injuring his ankle ahead of the Japan-Taiwan off-season training.
Jeon said "Each player has his own characteristics. It is not easy to imitate Kim Sun-hyung's color. As the speed decreases (than before), the average two fastballs will be missing. Instead, he said, let's try a three-point shot in a fast attack. To this end, we tried to test the lineup of Ahn Young-joon, Alvin Tolentino, and Kim Hyung-bin. However, Ahn Young-joon was excluded from training due to his injury. I haven't done much experiment. Time is running out. I haven't even decided on a start"You have to hang in there." You have to win four to five games in the first round. I'm not saying the players are bad right now. The process is too difficult. The offseason was too short. There is also an EASL schedule."
SK showed off its new tactics against Samsung. It was half a success. SK won 80-70, but failed to hit the desired level of outside attack. On this day, SK attempted 30 three-point shots and scored seven. The success rate was 23.3 percent. After the game, coach Jeon "I could clearly see that the attempt to speed up itself was reduced." Players should go in different directions regarding the way they score. be unsatisfactory. There seems to be a lot to be refined in the airlift. I was worried that I would have to invest a lot of time even in the season.
Contrary to Jeon's concerns, players can ' was a self-confident figure. Jamil Warney, 31, said "There's an injured player, so there's something I couldn't work with. I think it will be a bit cooler and stronger if we put them all together." Oh Jae-hyun (26) also played 'running basketball' so far, but we also had strength in shooting. I think it will be a basketball where new players can come in, run, and shoot. There will be trial and error, but I think there will be a stronger option if we work together."
