KB Stars coach Kim Wan-soo holding a strategy meeting
“The players were the best. The loss was the coach’s fault.”
Kim Wan-soo, coach of the women’s professional basketball team Cheongju KB, who bowed to the ‘defending champion’ Asan Woori Bank in the championship game, blamed himself.
KB lost to Asan Woori Bank 72-78 in the 4th game of the Woori Bank Woori WON 2023-2024 Women’s Professional Basketball Championship (3 wins out of 5) held at the Yi Sun-shin Gymnasium in Asan, Chungcheongnam-do on the 30th.
KB, who had reached the top with 27 wins and 3 losses in the regular league, lost the championship series with a record of 1 win and 3 losses and had to face Woori Bank’s second consecutive loss.
Coach Kim Wan-soo said in an interview after the game, “I’m more proud of our players than anyone else. They worked hard,” and added, “We lost the game, but the players’ fighting spirit and spirit are still alive.”
Coach Kim Wan-soo chose Kang I-seul’s poor performance as the most disappointing part of the championship game. 파워볼사이트
Kang Yi-seul’s score gradually decreased to 20 points in the first game, 10 points in the second game, and 6 points in the third game, and in the fourth game of the day, he was tied tightly by Park Hye-jin of Woori Bank and scored no points even after playing for 38 minutes and 31 seconds.
Coach Kim said, “I wonder what would have happened if Kang Yi-seul exploded, but that’s not something we can do.” He then looked back and said, “It’s in the past, but the first game (lost first) is the most disappointing.”
On this day, KB also faced bad news when ball handler Heo Ye-eun was sent off for five fouls with about 6 minutes left in the third quarter.
Coach Kim said, “Substitute Shim Seong-young entered the second half and held on well,” and bowed his head, saying, “It was the coach’s fault that we lost the game, and I’m sorry to the fans who came in large numbers.”
“Woori Bank also has strong players such as Kim Dan-bi, Park Ji-hyun, and Park Hye-jin. I felt that we had to become stronger to face them,” said Coach Kim, adding, “I think the players also felt a lot while playing this championship match.”
He also sent congratulations to Woori Bank, which lifted the championship trophy for the 12th time in total.
Coach Kim Wan-soo said, “I would like to congratulate Woori Bank coach Wi Sang-woo, the coaching staff, and the players on winning the championship game,” and added, “I think we showed an interesting game to women’s basketball fans.” 온라인 슬롯
