Samsung doesn't have Lee Dae-sung. However, big man Lee Won-seok joined in. There is a gap between Lee Dae-sung, but Lee Kwan-hee, Gutang, Lee Keun-hwi, and Han Ho-bin can take turns to fill it.
Lee Won-seok's addition is a great force.
In the previous game, Hyundai Mobis was completely defeated, but Samsung's power is still alive.
Samsung took the lead from the beginning. Lee Won-seok's sharp drive-in. Playing with Nicholson creates a lot of space under the basket. This is because Nicholson, who has a strong three-point shot, stands on the outside and acts as a stretch.
However, the leading articles of association were not easy. He strengthened the pressure of the defense. It was immediately balanced.
They turned the tables and turned the tables again and again. Samsung cheered up at the end of the first quarter. He even scored Choi Hyun-min's points and free throws with his fastballs. 23-16, 7-point lead.

At the end of the second quarter, Jeong Kwan-jang induced Samsung's error with a surprise full-court press and succeeded in counterattack by breaking through the baseline by Abando. 48-37 with 1:04 left, 11 points behind.
It was very important in the atmosphere whether or not to chase within 10 points until the end of the first half. Han Ho-bin's three-point corner failed. Jeong Kwan-jang retaliated with Washington's under-the-goal breakthrough.
Samsung also failed to win Nicholson's mid-jumper. Park Ji-hoon chased again with a sharp breakthrough under the basket. 48-41, ending the first half as they chased by seven points. Samsung showed strong performance in the first and second quarters. It proved that the first round victory was no accident.

Jeong Kwan-jang, who finished in a good atmosphere in the first half, accelerated the chase with O'Brien's under-the-goal shot.
Lee Won-seok played a meaningful role. He made a 2-2 mid-jumper with Lee Kwan-hee and caught a defensive rebound. It was the effect of Lee Won-seok joining. There was good luck, too. Han Ho-bin and Lee Won-seok's 2:2. Pass miss. But the ball fell to Lee Kwan-hee. Samsung's lead by 10 points again after succeeding in three open points.
A variable has occurred. While Lee Won-seok was shooting with 4:38 left in the third quarter, he was shocked by his injured wrist. It was eventually replaced. The moment I'm worried about Samsung's weakness in height.
Samsung had a flash of foul play. Three-pointers for two consecutive games. With fast transitions, Samsung made a stormy attack. In an instant, he widened the lead to 63-48 and 15 points.
On the same day, Jeong Kwan-jang was in a situation where his poor three-point shooting (15 cities and 2 successful in the first half, 15% success rate) overlapped with one-two punch Johnny O'Brient and Byun Joon-hyung's poor performance. In the pursuit of Jeonggwanjang, Gutang's two three-point shots were 'bojeok' that completely raised the atmosphere of Samsung. From the perspective of Jeonggwanjang, the pursuit was very difficult. In the end, Samsung ended the third quarter with a lead of 71-57, 14 points.
an intense defensive game early in the fourth quarter. The play of the players of both teams became more intense. Samsung's lead of more than 10 points was rarely broken. Fouls kept piling up.
Samsung's team foul with 7:14 left. It was a bad factor. Gutting is a 4th foul, Jeong Kwan-jang has 3 team fouls, and Kim Young-hyun has 4th fouls.
In the deadlock, Jeong Kwan-jang led the chase as Abando scored consecutive points. 80-68, the pursuit of the articles of association by 12 points. Samsung's operational time.
The articles of association were a three-point performance in Washington. They trailed by nine points. However, Byun Joon-hyung's three-point shot air ball and So Jun-hyuk's three-point shot failed in a row. Samsung ran away with Kanter's two free throws.
There are 2 minutes and 23 seconds left until the end of the game. 84-73, 11-point lead. That's all for Jeong Kwan-jang's pursuit.
Samsung was not in full strength due to Lee Dae-sung's absence and Lee Won-seok's trip to the bench during the game. However, he dominated the game with strong pressure and a strong three-point shot from Lee Kwan-hee, Lee Keun-hui, Gutang, and Choi Hyun-min.
Still, the aggressive force was powerful. The defense was a problem, but the defensive intensity was also not easy on the day.
