Whether or not to manage the remaining four games is the key to achieving the "all-round MVP."
All-Star MVP already won, regular league MVP effectively 'reserved'
The key to Cheongju KB, which confirmed its victory in the regular league in the 2023-2024 season of women's professional basketball on the 14th, is by far Park Ji-soo 25,196 cm.
As a national center, he has appeared in all 26 regular league games this season, averaging 20.9 points, 15.7 rebounds and 1.7 block shots, ranking first in all categories.
It is also the overwhelming No. 1 player with 1,177 points in contribution, which converts player performance into figures.
As KB has 24 wins and 2 losses in this season's regular league, Park Ji-soo swept the MVP in the first to fifth rounds of this season in a vote of reporters to select the MVP of each round.
It was a natural result because KB was always good in each round and Park Ji-soo was superior in personal records in that team.
In the first round, KB won 4-1, Asan Woori Bank won 5 games, and Park Ji-soo was not as overwhelming as he is now with 4th place in scoring 17.4 points and 1st place in rebound 16.2 rebounds, but Park Ji-soo won 54 votes and Woori Bank Park Ji-hyun won 35 votes, which was a relatively close round MVP competition.
Now, if Park Ji-soo wins the last six rounds of MVP, another true record of winning the entire round MVP will be born.
Park Ji-soo is the first woman to sweep the MVP in the first to fifth rounds of women's professional basketball, which was launched in 1998.
Park Ji-soo has already received the MVP of this year's All-Star Game, and the regular league MVP is the same as Park Ji-soo's reservation, so if Park Ji-soo takes the sixth round MVP of this year's regular league and the MVP of the championship game, all MVP of the 2023-2024 season will be Park Ji-soo.
After his team won 68-60 against Busan BNK at Cheongju Gymnasium in Chungbuk on the 14th, Park Ji-soo was asked in an interview whether he would also challenge for the sixth round MVP and replied, "The idea of doing my best in every game is more important than that."
"If I pay attention to such things even since I was a student, the game was worse," he said. "If I get greedy, I can get a big upset such as injury, so I'll put aside my greed but try my best."
KB coach Kim Wan-soo announced plans to reduce the playing time of key players such as Park Ji-soo and Kang Yi-seul in the remaining four games, making it somewhat unlikely that Park Ji-soo will monopolize the 6th round MVP.
Coach Kim Wan-soo said in an interview after confirming his win in the regular league on the 14th, "I will do my best to win the remaining games," but added, "I don't want to overuse Park Ji-soo and Kang Yi-seul."
"It would be better to develop a sense of play and match the combination by giving opportunities to players and backup players who returned from injuries such as Shim Sung-young and Kim So-dam," he explained.
In fact, it is true that KB is not very motivated to work hard until the rest of the regular league.
KB is in the "high flight" with 24 wins and 2 losses, but winning all the remaining games does not mean it can set a record such as the highest winning rate ever.
In the 2016-2017 season, Woori Bank recorded 33 wins and 2 losses with a 94.3 percent winning rate, so even if KB finishes the season with 28 wins and 2 losses, the winning rate will be 93.3 percent. 토토사이트
If this happens, it can set a record for the second-largest regular league win rate ever after Woori Bank in the 2016-2017 season, which was a 35-game regular league system.
The current record of second place in the regular league winning rate is 92.5% 37 wins and 3 losses of Shinhan Bank in the 2008-2009 season, which was a 40-game system.
