“I have been disappointed with KGC for a long time.”
Goyang Carrot won 85-65 in the home game against Anyang KGC in the 4th round of the 2022-23 SKT Adot Professional Basketball held at Goyang Gymnasium on the 21st, winning 5 consecutive wins in the season and winning against all clubs.
The most valuable thing is that it is Carrot’s first win against KGC. The story of Carrot coach Kim Seung-gi and KGC, and even the fans who visited the scene, empathized, and after the match, Goyang Gymnasium looked as if it had won the championship match.
Coach Kim lost all three matches in Anyang. In particular, after the 3rd round loss, which ended with a line cross misjudgment controversy and a buzzer beater defeat, he suffered enough to confess that he even suffered a psychological blow. After that, it collapsed with 5 consecutive losses. Manager Kim laughed big at the fact that he finished the revenge match with a victory in the match. Even Kim Jin-yu, who watched from the side, said, “It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a director so happy.”
In fact, the relationship between coach Kim and KGC is not so good to the extent that the meaning of revenge match fits well. From the mid-2010s to the early 2020s, KGC’s support was always lacking, even though it was continuing its best performance. The treatment of the master who led the KBL summit was also not good. The process of parting was not so beautiful, so every time we met, there was no choice but to spark.메이저사이트
Coach Kim said after the victory, “Honestly, there were a lot of things I was disappointed about at KGC. They are the best team right now and they seem to be providing a lot of support in all areas. It’s a huge difference from when I was there (laughs). The team that seems to continue to do well is KGC. It will last a long time. It feels really good to win against such a team. And we will continue to work hard to win. The basketball world will be more fun.”
He said, “I think I should stop showing my sad feelings now. I’ve been really sad all this time. I didn’t leave the team because my grades weren’t good. I made a good team, but I had to leave. Honestly, I thought I would give you a plaque of appreciation (laughs). It was a pity,” he said.
The fact that the relationship between coach Kim and the front desk was not so good during KGC was already widespread in the basketball world. In particular, the difference in position with former director Jeon Sam-sik was great, and because of that, even in the process of parting, it was inevitable to end it with only regrets for each other. There is an evaluation that it has improved in many areas since the appointment of general manager Seo Jeong-il, but it was already after coach Kim left.
Coach Kim said, “(Seo Jeong-il) seems to be good at supporting the players. I wondered why there wasn’t something like that when I was there. So I wanted to win more, but after the 3rd round, I felt really unfair.” It was really hard,” he confessed.
It’s hard to forget all the regrets with just one victory. It has been accumulated for a long time, so it will take time to erase it all. However, it is coach Kim who made it a motivation for victory, not a simple regret.
Coach Kim said, “We will face off two more times in Goyang, and we will prepare to win. I am grateful to our players for overcoming the difficult situation. KGC is a good team and we will be able to defeat them.”
