Beat KT and finish the championship with 4 wins and 1 loss
My hometown Jeonju → First season to move to Busan
It's the 6th time in my career and the top in 13 years
KT Heo Hoon, who averages 27 points in five games, is very active… "Something in the same team as my brother"
KCC won the title in the professional basketball championship this season. Heo Woong 31 of the KCC was named the MVP of the championship along with the "父 winner" following his father Heo Jae 59, the "basketball president."
KCC defeated KT 88-70 in Game 5 of the 2023-2024 season four wins out of seven held in an away match against Suwon on Thursday, and had four wins and one loss overall in the series. It is the sixth time in his career including Hyundai, and the first time in 13 years since the 2010-2011 season that KCC won the championship. When he last won the championship 13 years ago, KCC coach Huh Jae was the first. KCC also left a new record of winning the championship as the fifth-ranked team in the regular league. It is the first time that a fifth-ranked team in a regular league has won the championship since the launch of the professional basketball league in 1997. In the semifinal playoff, KCC beat SK, the fourth-ranked team in the regular league, and advanced to the championship by defeating DB, the first-ranked team in the regular league.
Ahead of the opening of the season, KCC was called a "super team." It is because it has recruited Heo Woong, Lee Seung-hyun, and Ra Gun-ah as national team members and Choi Jun-yong, who became a free agent after playing for SK, to build its powerful capability. Ahead of the opening of this season, coaches of 10 teams picked candidates for the championship, while seven called KCC names. However, KCC was so sluggish that it recorded its first consecutive win in 14 games due to injuries sustained by key players in the early days of this season. Then, as injured players returned to the team and Song Kyo-chang, who finished his military service, joined the team, gradually gained power resembling a super team, and eventually ranked fifth in the PO.
With KCC's victory on the day, Hur has become the first Korean professional basketball player to win the championship. In the upcoming championship, which drew keen attention as a result of brothers' showdowns between Hur and Hur Hoon 29, KT, no matter which team won the championship, there would have been a case of the "rich championship." His father Heo Jae once won the championship while playing for Kia in 1997, and TG in the 2002-2003 season. Hur was named the MVP of the championship by a vote of reporters, and he was named the first MVP of the pro basketball league. Hur Jae was the MVP of the 1997-1998 season when he was playing for Kia, but he was the only player in the 27-year history of the pro basketball to have been named the MVP of the runner-up team that lost the championship. "I have been working hard for the past year to win the championship. I shed tears because I remembered my teammates, coaches, and coaches who spent more time with me than I did with my family," Heo said. Regarding his younger brother Heo Hoon, who faced off in the championship, he said, "I don't know when it will be, but I want to do my best to be on the same team in the future." Heo scored 18.8 points on average in the five games, including 21 points in the fifth game.
Since the first season when he moved to Busan, KCC has enjoyed the pleasure of giving home fans the trophy. It is the first time in 27 years that a professional sports team based in Busan has won the title since the 1997 season of the Korea Professional Football Association now Busan. KCC had used Jeonju as its home ground until last season. "It was quite regrettable that we could not show good performance to our home fans as we finished fifth in the regular season. I am happy to win the title, but I wish we had won the title in front of our home fans in Busan," KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin said. 토토사이트 순위
After 17 years since the 2006-2007 season, KT attempted to win its first championship since its foundation, but failed to overcome the barrier of KCC, a "super team." Heo Hoon fought hard by scoring an average of 26.6 points in the five championship games, including 29 points in the fifth game, but gave up the trophy to his brother.
