“This is not the end. Basketball will continue. I will take a break for a while and then run for the win again. I will never be frustrated.” (Coach Kim Seung-gi)
Pro basketball Goyang Carrot recorded 1 win and 3 losses 온라인카지노 in the semifinal playoffs (PO, 3 wins out of 5) against Anyang KGC on the 19th, a season full of ups and downs. has finished The season, which had been suffering from financial difficulties and almost degenerated into a last-minute drama, was transformed into a drama with a dramatic twist, with coach Kim Seung-gi and players advancing to the semifinals PO.
Carrot took over Goyang Orion after last season and was newly launched. Day One Sports, whose parent company is Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering & Construction, operated Carrot Insurance as a naming sponsor. However, there was constant noise outside the court, such as paying the Korean Basketball League (KBL) subscription fee and delaying the payment of salaries to the players.
It was different on the court. In addition to Lee Dae-seong and Lee Seung-hyun, the leading players of the Orion era, both transferred, and the player base was thin, so they were classified in the mid-lower ranks before the start of the season. However, coach Kim, who took over the baton, created a sensation with his extreme archery basketball, in which he threw more 3-point shots than 2-point shots. KBL’s flagship shooter Jeon Seong-hyun, who won two championships at KGC with coach Kim, also played a big role.
Under coach Kim’s training, Lee Jung-hyun, a second-year pro, has grown rapidly into a top-notch guard in the league. Foreign player Didric Lawson added strength with solid play. At the end of the season, Jeon Seong-hyun left due to sudden hearing loss and faced a crisis, but kept the final 5th place. In addition, in the round of 6 PO, it was pushed back by 4th place Ulsan Hyundai Mobis with 1 win and 2 losses, and then won 2 consecutive wins and advanced to the round of 4 PO, making spring basketball chewy.
Fans responded with fervent support to the Carrot players who did not give up despite all kinds of difficulties. The regular season home game average attendance was 2,138 (5th), and in PO, an average of 2,801 people came even though 3 out of 4 home games were held on weekdays. Fans energized the team by delivering eel rice and coffee to the players at 10:00.
After the last game, the Carrot players were sorry to say goodbye to the fans who came down around the court. Coach Kim said, “If I felt happiness for a long time in Anyang for 7 years, I think I felt all happiness in one year in Goyang this year.” The fans are also very grateful and grateful,” he said.
Now, the signboard as Goyang Carrot will be taken down. Day One Sports has been negotiating a takeover with a company since the end of last year. If the negotiations go well, coach Kim and his players will start the new season again wearing new uniforms.
