Back-to-back matches are more uplifting carrots than anyone else.

Goyang Carrot lost 83-96 in the 5th round of the regular league against 2022-2023 SKT Adot Pro Basketball Seoul SK held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium on the 5th.

Carrot, who won a thrilling victory in an away game against Hyundai Mobis in Ulsan the previous day. However, due to the close fight throughout the game, the physical burden was not small. Lee Jung-hyun played 40 minutes full-time, and Jeon Seong-hyun and Didric Lawson also played more than 30 minutes.

Due to the schedule of moving from Ulsan to Seoul, there was no choice but to have less time to recover. Conversely, SK has a schedule where they can play at home on the 3rd (Fri) and take a day off. The difference in fatigue between the two teams was stark.

Before the game, manager Kim Seung-gi also said, “It will be difficult. He worried, saying, “I don’t have a good memory in the series because I play with a small number of members due to the composition of the members.”

In the aftermath, Carrot collapsed by conceding 56 points in the first half alone. They pursued in the third quarter, but never overturned the lead. There was also a difference in compatibility between the two teams in the presence or absence of a big man, but the biggest difference was in the fast attack. Carrot was not able to use his strength enough to be defeated by 0-20 in the fast break score.

Kim Seon-hyung, who scored 8 points in the fast break that day, also said, “I felt the aftermath of my opponent’s game in Ulsan the day before.” 메이저놀이터

Carrot suffered his fifth loss in a back-to-back game with the loss that day. He has only won back-to-back matches once. The win rate is very low at 16%. In a way, this is a natural result because the main players such as Seong-Hyun Jeon, Lawson, and Jung-Hyun Lee have a high percentage of attacks, and rotation resources are limited due to the injuries of Ho-Bin Han and Hyun-Min Choi.

Of course, since it is a back-to-back game played without a break, the win rate is bound to be low in most cases. Until today (February 6), the win rate of back-to-back matches for KBL teams is 20-23, less than 50%. However, the winning rate is lower than that of Seoul Samsung (1 win, 3 losses) and Daegu Korea Gas Corporation (1 win, 4 losses), which are lower than Carrot.

One good thing is that Carrot played all the scheduled back-to-back games this season. It will be a comfort for Carrot, who is in the midst of a ranking battle as he enters the final stages of the league.
