Samsung manager Kim Hyo-beom lagged behind in game management

Seoul Samsung lost seven consecutive games to Ulsan Hyundai Mobis.
Samsung lost 76:80 at the Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium on the 23rd after competing fiercely against Hyundai Mobis in the '2025-2026 LG Electronics Professional Basketball' game. Last season, he lost all six games to Hyundai Mobis and remained at the bottom for four consecutive seasons, and he had a good chance to break it, but eventually lost again and continued his losing streak.
The game attracted more attention because of the relationship between Samsung coach Kim Hyo-beom and Hyundai Mobis coach Yang Dong-geun. The two coaches are seniors and juniors who won the championship for two seasons at Hyundai Mobis, and since then, they are different teams, but they are also "soul mates" who share each other's lives while serving as coaching staff following their careers.
Yang is two years older, but since Kim was the head coach first in December 2023, he was the head coach, so he gave words of blessing to each other before the game, but the game was also a match.
Coach Kim said, "(Although it was a four-point lead), it didn't finish well at the match point as well," and added, "I'll have to analyze it while watching the video, but I think I'll have to match the players well.' He then prepared the switch defense, and director Yang saw it through and changed it to a high-level game and responded well. He is also a junior as a coach, but he was experienced in the management of the game."
