Bucheon Hana OneQ head coach Kim Dowan expressed his satisfaction after the 2023-24 season.
The Hana OneQ lost 64-77 to Cheongju KB in Game 3 of the Woori Bank Woori WON 2023-24 Women’s Professional Basketball Playoffs (PO) at Bucheon Indoor Gymnasium at 7 p.m. on Wednesday. With their third straight PO loss, Hana OneQ is done for the season.
After the game, head coach Kim Do-wan said, “We played hard and did our best without regrets. We didn’t have many substitutes, but they said they would finish the job. I have nothing but praise for the players. Today, for the first time, we won the rebounding battle against KB,” he laughed.
Hana OneQ reached the POs for the first time since its inception. Although they didn’t get a ticket to the championship game, it was a valuable achievement for Hana OneQ. Coach Kim Do-wan said, “It’s not so much about skill as it is about the players’ togetherness. That’s a big achievement. We didn’t rely on one person, and we came out of the court with the mindset of trying to do it together, and I think we grew in that regard,” he said, adding, “I think the players did their best just by being able to bite and fight until the end, even though most teams like KB lose by two or three points.”
Looking back on the season, Kim said, “There were days that went really well and days that didn’t go so well, and there were times when the players didn’t get along with each other and disagreed with me. The fact that we made it to the POs and became a one-man team while 카지노 going through various situations means that the players put in a lot of effort,” he said.
“We met KB, a team that is not easy to overcome, and the score difference was more than 10 points, but I want to praise the fans for playing three games without shame. I told the players that it was so precious to play a season with you guys and finish it together. I told the players, “Let’s not forget that we came all the way to the PO, and let’s do well next season.
Kim is already thinking about next season. “I’m going to try to play a lot of man-to-man defense and one-on-one offense,” he said.
