(14 days until the league preliminary)

(The ace, Su Inn gets injured in his ankle.)

What happened?

(It's not just about today, but about the future matches.)

(Su Inn has taken off his shoes.)

(Is it serious Achilles tendon injury?)

- Tendinitis. - Do you have any games coming up?

- Yes, in two weeks. - Two weeks?

That's an important game, isn't it?

- Yes, I have to play. - You'll have to play,

but if you're not careful until then,

you won't be able to play in the league.

Not just that, you may not be able to model too.

(Will he be able to overcome the Achilles tendon injury...)

(and get back on the court?)

If I take a break and focus on treatment,

will I be able to run after two weeks?

Sure, you can run.

Really?

You'll be able to play.

As soon as your pain goes away,

I'll show you how to exercise with your Achilles tendon and muscles.

They'll strengthen your muscles.

You'll get better so don't worry.

- Hey, Su Inn. - Hello, Coach.

- Hi. - Hello, sir.

How are you feeling?

Well,

I received physical therapy and remedial exercise.

Now I'm much better.

I see. That's a relief.

Loosen yourself up a bit the day before the game,

Yes.

and get a good rest until then.

Yes, I'll make a complete recovery.

(Six days until the league preliminary)

How are your legs?

Yes, it got much better. I feel pretty good.

- Has it been treated all along? - Yes.

I should probably rest a little more though.

- We're practicing today, so... - Yes, I'll be in the back.

- Let's get you taped. - Yes.

- Hello. - Hello.

This taping will help you run better.

Wow, Sang Yun.

You have such a thick thigh.

I worked out a lot.

You have sturdy legs.

- When I was young, - Yes.

I used to live in a town with mountains.

- So, at that time... - You're born with it.

He's been working out a lot lately.

I didn't know why people do taping before.

But now that I've experienced it, exercising is important...

- but safety is the best. - I agree.

You have to exercise safely.

If you see this,

Michael Jordan is here.

On the box?

Ji Seok is on the box.

Ji Seok is Michael Jordan...

- of Handsome Tigers. - Ji Seok is like...

The viewers have great expectations for him...

I know.

because number 23 isn't for anyone to have it.

It's not an easy thing to select that number.

He must have a tough mind to choose that number.

- But he's doing great. - Right.

It's done.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thanks.

(They're on the court with their bodies and minds bonded.)

Everyone,

- Su Inn is back. - Welcome.

How were you guys?

We've seen each other at least 3 to 4 days a week regularly.

We see each other too often.

Eun Woo has been away.

- To Italy! - Yes.

Buon giorno!

You have to talk like this from now on.

Italians use their hands a lot when they speak.

- Have you seen them? - Yes, they do a lot.

Did you eat pasta?

- I had pasta and steak. - Maybe pizza?

(He went around eating foods.)

- I played basketball in Italy. - Really?

(Real basketball?)

I saw you guys practicing through our chat room...

and I also thought I should do it.

I felt like I was left behind...

so I bought a basketball.

- Did you play street basketball? - Yes,

I played with Italian students.

- Are they good? - He's amazing.

(He played street basketball with Italian students on the spot.)

(He even practiced his shots and threw away his anxiety.)

Oh, really?

- Are they good? - He's amazing.

- Do they play well? - Well,

some of them are good and some of them are normal.

You didn't yell out "Thumb" there, did you?

- I almost yelled "V". - That would've been hilarious.

He's yelling "Thumb" and no one knows what that is.

It became a habit to yell out "Thumb".

(Thumb Wave is failed.)

(A new groom enters with hands full of bags.)

- Here comes the new groom. - I knew he cares about us.

Welcome, it's the new groom!

- What's that? - What are those?

Handsome Tigers!

- You're so bad at keeping rhythm. - What is it?

Is it food?

- What is this? - Now,

let me tell you what it is.

- Is that a soap? - Maybe it's a rice cake.

I thought you guys were too busy to come to my wedding.

- I appreciate those who came. - A sticky rice cake?

It's a sticky rice cake.

- Can I have one? - Look at Julien.

That's how you supposed to do an unboxing.

- You just ripped it off. - Look at that.

- Julien. - So that's how it looks like.

He didn't even finish explaining it.

This is how people do unboxing these days.

They just rip it off.

My wife prepared sticky strawberry rice cake.

- Thank you for the cake. - Sure.

- Do we get one each? - Thank you for the cake.

- It's cool. - I want this one.

- Thanks. - Put this in.

I think they have different flavors.

- Really? - No, they're the same.

Is this ice cream?

- If you freeze it... - This is tasty.

This rice cake tastes like ice cream.

It's good, thanks.

This rice cake means something.

(The rice cake has a meaning to it?)

I chose this from hoping our teamwork would...

be sticky perfect.

So we can play in harmony.

That's why I got these.

He definitely prepared that line.

I look forward to our teamwork.

- I can tell. - You should eat them a lot.

All right.

You're having them the most.

I have something for you.

(What is it?)

I didn't pay congratulatory money that day, so I brought a present.

- It's for you. - Seon Ho.

Why didn't you give it to me earlier?

- I scratched my head over it. - Is that sticky rice cake?

No, it's not.

- The wrapping is so pretty. - Yes.

(What is Seon Ho's sincere present?)

What is it?

This is a bath product.

I bought a bath bomb.

- Gosh. - Why?

Why did you buy a bath bomb?

He should be tired these days,

- so I bought it for his relaxation. - But look at its color.

The color is so lovely.

By the way, Seung Hyun.

- I have... - My wife would love this.

Right, she would.

It looks like Eun Woo has something too.

- I also... - For real?

- Really? - couldn't make it that day.

- That's the best one. - Congratulations.

(Congratulations on your marriage.)

(That's nice.)

- His face is totally different. - Hey,

maybe I should've also given you money.

This one's pretty expensive you know.

Thank you.

"I hope you have a lovey-dovey married life."

- It's pretty thick. - You can have more.

I should put this on my wall.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

I mean it.

Now that we started off warmly...

- It was heartwarming. - That was nice.

- Let's go. - All right.

- Let's roar. - Okay.

- Handsome! - Roar!

- Roar! - Roar.

Please move to the opposite side of the court.

You're going to do this.

Try not to step on the rail and do it fast.

Ready,

go!

Do it as fast as you can.

(Clop?)

Move your feet as fast as you can.

Aren't we suppose to skip two spaces at a time?

Next!

(Like this?)

Start right after he goes.

How should I do this?

This is hard.

- All right. - Let's do it one more time.

(And a stepping warrior is going crazy.)

My goodness.

(What on earth is he?)

For now, you've been skipping a space at a time.

Yes.

Skip two spaces at a time like this.

Skip two spaces in speed.

(They have to skip two spaces at a time without stepping on rails.)

Ready, go!

It's okay.

(It's okay if you make mistakes.)

I'm a blue crab!

(It's okay to be a blue crab.)

It's okay if you make mistakes.

Just keep trying.

Good.

That's it.

- Nice. - Ready.

- Go. - He's so competitive.

Good!

- That's good. - Put your weight in the back.

Put your weight in the back.

- In the back. - Faster!

- Ready, go! - Let's go, Tigers.

That's it.

Now you guys are getting it.

Keep coming.

Go, Tae Sun. Let's go!

Go, Shawry!

Continue. Don't stop.

- Go! - Keep going.

Practice shooting after a water break.

Okay.

- So... - Coach is here.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello, Coach. - Hello.

- Gather around. - Hello, sir.

You're here.

- Hello. - Hurry up.

First of all...

(Before the training sessions,)

Look.

(something appears.)

What's that?

The fixture schedule...

for the national amateur league match is out.

This is the match table.

No team would be easy to play with.

They're all powerful teams.

So the league will proceed as this table.

(The match table makes them nervous.)

(The delegation meeting of league-participating teams.)

Thank you all for coming here.

I wanted to thank you all before we start.

Because we made this tournament...

just for the show and I thought...

I should personally come here to tell you...

how I'm appreciated by your participation.

Also, the reason why...

I agreed to do all this was...

to find a way...

to contribute to Korean basketball.

So, our whole intention was...

to challenge the stronger teams...

whether we can win or not.

And I thought it would be a nice opportunity...

for you to test your skills.

I divided groups according to the ranking of the teams I heard.

I've referred to the current ranking...

and put the strongest teams in each group.

Then the top citizen team on this group.

And the next team on the other side. That's how it's divided.

Our team is in Group A.

The strongest amateur team is Owls...

and they're in the same group as us.

(The Owls is the strongest amateur team.)

Who are they?

They're really good.

(The Owls is an untouchable front-runner.)

(Their teamwork is in a complete format.)

(And every player is ace of the team.)

(Jung Heung Joo)

(Player Jung Heung Joo from Goyang City Hall is also in this team.)

Gyeonggi Province Office of Education is...

- the second in the league. - ATP.

- I see. - And...

- they're in the same group. - Okay.

(Team ATP is continuing their sweeping upturn.)

So, there's the second-best team here...

and there's the strongest college team.

The best two teams of basketball clubs.

Team ZOO of Korea University.

- I bet they have great physicals. - And stamina too.

(It's so easy to win for Team ZOO!)

(Their spirit, physical, and speed are all overwhelming.)

Team ATP, ZOO, and Owls are on the same group as us.

This is our final fixture table.

No team is easy to win.

They're all very strong.

Only the top three teams make it...

to the next tournament.

And in order to do that,

we have to win at least one game.

If we lose all the games,

that's over for us.

Right.

(Their challenge also ends without one win.)

(The players can't help but be nervous.)

(And although he can't show,)

(Coach Seo would be feeling pressured the most.)

We are going to do this without any plot.

And we're going to play openly and squarely.

All the other rules stay the same,

but I have two things to tell you.

You have to defend man-to-man during 2, 3 quarters.

We came up with that new rule.

As we played a game with an amateur team,

they maintained their zone defense throughout the whole game.

But if that happens,

both teams won't score...

and that'll definitely take away the drama and fun.

Also, no player can't play more than three quarters.

If a player steps in, that counts as a quarter.

We've added these rules as to local tournament.

I hope that everyone could think...

of this with good hearts...

and do this together.

After I watched your games,

- I got worried about something. - Okay.

But I think the third rule would...

- resolve it. - Which one?

As you mentioned, I would've kept my zone defense.

Right.

- Because... - So these are not...

all advantaged to us.

(These rules are not for someone, but for fun.)

We're not such a strong team,

but our players worried very much about Handsome Tigers.

Why would they?

This is a show after all...

and they worry that there would be nothing...

- to shoot for the show. - We're not that bad.

(He listens to what he says.)

(Laughing awkwardly)

You don't have to worry so much.

You've only watched one episode.

And our strength is not that bad at all.

We played a game with Goyang City Hall just before.

I heard someone in Goyang runs...

- as a key player in Owls. - Yes.

I've seen him play and he was really good.

(Mapping out strategy in front of his eyes)

While he's dribbling and breaking through,

he'll make a turn out of habit.

So keep that in mind.

(Are you talking about me?)

This guy can play like an actual professional player.

I heard the Owls have 3 to 4 players...

who play like him.

Even though they weren't actual professionals.

Then, I'm curious if player Heung Joo is...

an ace of the team.

Is he an ace in that team as well?

- Yes. - Or are there better players?

I'm just asking.

It won't hurt to tell.

How is it?

From what I see, he's the best...

- out of all amateur players. - He's the best?

- His private skills are great. - I see.

If he's the best player you have,

then,

I have hope that it would be...

worth trying for us.

I got hope.

(He succeeds in identifying the strength of other teams, maybe.)

All the representatives gathered for a rule meeting.

I was there also.

And this Team S** Semiconductor is...

taking part in this tournament but they say they wanted to...

play a game with us.

So today,

I scheduled a game.

We're going to play against them soon.

They're at a similar level...

as the other teams that we're going to play against,

so I think this is a great opportunity to compare skills.

Follow me.

So we're playing a game with the team in Group B.

Pattern.

Pattern?

Come out.

Ji Seok, you're first.

Eun Woo is second.

Then, Sang Yun.

Do you think you can run today?

Is it hurt or not?

(Coach Seo is still worried about Su Inn's leg.)

Stop!

(Su Inn got injured in the ankle...)

(during the game against Goyang City Hall.)

(Su Inn has Achilles tendinitis.)

(Is he feeling better now?)

- I'm okay. - Sorry?

I think I can play.

Just tell me if it hurts or not.

It's okay right now.

Then practice our pattern.

Thumb!

- It's Thumb. - Thumb!

- Let's go. - Go!

Go!

(They review their strategy before the match.)

Screen!

(It's his first training session after the injury...)

(and his movements seem fine.)

Nice.

Nice one.

Next team.

Hurry up.

- Get ready. - All right.

(Tactical training continues.)

(However,)

This won't work. The pain is back.

It's coming up on me again.

(Has Su Inn's condition become bad again?)

I'm sorry, Coach, but my pain is back.

I don't think I can do it today.

It came back as I ran.

I only ran for a moment and it's right back.

- Geez. - Take a look at him.

Let me see.

(Will Su Inn be missing this match again?)

(Su Inn who wants to play the most, is disappointed than anyone.)

What is it?

This is so frustrating.

(He checks his ankle without delay.)

- Hello. - Hello.

Is it your right ankle?

No, it's the back...

- of my ankle. Yes. - The back of your left ankle?

Does it hurt when I touch it?

Yes, it's right there.

I'll massage to relax your muscles a bit.

- Okay. - Let's do that.

(I thought I could play today.)

(After he pauses training session,)

(Coach Seo is heading to the locker room.)

How is he?

From MRI scan he took,

- Right. - he does have inflammation.

Is it serious that he can't play the game?

He could run but if he keeps running, it can strain his ankle.

I see.

Okay, then take a day off.

- Keep receiving treatments. - Okay.

You have to run the next week.

- We have a game next week. - Right.

This can't be continued.

You have to be back in shape.

Go get some treatment from the doctor...

and do whatever...

to get better soon.

- Of course. - All right?

- Please take care of him. - Sure.

- You take care of him. - Yes.

(This is a critical moment...)

(But the body isn't functioning as he wishes)

First of all, I felt sorry for the team members...

and the coach.

It made me so mad...

that I failed to maintain my own body.

So I'm getting some treatment and rehabilitation,

but I'm unsure...

if I can use 100 percent of what I have...

and that makes me anxious.

(Su Inn's injury...)

and the league tournament approaching)

(Coach Seo's concern deepens.)

Hold on.

Gather around here.

(An emergency meeting called out)

(He has to revise many tactics he has planned.)

Sang Yun will stand on the back today.

On the back.

(A sudden change in defense position)

Ji Suk,

on the edge.

Same over there. In Soo.

Eun Woo, come to the center.

(What kind of a strategy is it?)

- What you'll be doing is... - Yes.

Do you remember when Su Inn was told...

- to go and block everything? - Yes.

You'll take over that role.

You will... Look.

(Su Inn's role is given to Eun Woo.)

What you'll last do inside...

after quickly going over this.

It's 3-2.

And Su Inn will be...

on the front.

This is how you'll stand.

He has good sports skills...

and is also tall, so he'll stand here.

Whenever your shooting or dribbling...

on the front here, he'll be helping you out.

- Do you understand what I mean? - Yes.

Here.

I'm saying that you are supposed to block all that.

Watch, move in here, and break through.

I'm saying that you should block everything.

(The Su Inn-centered defense tactic which requires a lot of energy)

A tactic where Su Inn blocks everything.

Block-them-all, Moon Su Inn.

(Operation block-them-all, Su Inn)

(Due to Su Inn's absence,)

(It's operation block-them-all, Eun Woo.)

Eun Woo is assisting every play.

Eun Woo is the helper.

We just have to...

Maintain our positions...

- Just over here. - and go on when the helper comes.

- We don't go to the three-point... - No.

For you guys,

just think that you always want to keep a square form.

- Yes. - Yes.

Do you understand? Say you're here.

- Stay there. - Yes.

Shoot!

Come if they're trying to shoot. That's how much you'll come.

Don't even jump. Just do this much.

- Understood? - Yes.

They're making an outside shot?

It doesn't matter.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

I was worried at the same time...

Either way, Su Inn was hurt.

He's the most important part of our team.

I was concerned...

whether I'd be able to fill up his position...

and at the same I felt responsible...

to do the best I could...

as it was a task trusted on me.

I had some mixed feelings.

Maybe a bit restless.

(We have to make it through despite unexpected role changes...)

(since we're a "team".)

On the back! On the corner!

- On the back, let me know! - Hey!

- Pass, good. - Here I go.

(Cha Eun Woo)

- Block Tae Sun. - Mine!

Wait.

(Tae Sun freely breaks through.)

- Block Tae Sun. - Mine!

I told you to watch that.

Eun Woo, who are you marking?

(Lee Tae Sun and Cha Eun Woo)

(Eun Woo should have come out to block Tae Sun.)

Here. Get here quickly. Forget about him.

- Just come this much. Understood? - Yes.

- Go again. - Okay.

(He has to block the player trying to break through first.)

- Hey! - Come this way. That's right.

If they pass the ball to him,

come out. Understood?

(He helps others defend by moving fast...)

(to the player who's breaking through.)

- Yes. - Go again.

(Operation block-them-all Eun Woo is on...)

(hoping that Eun Woo can stand up as the center of the defense.)

Mine.

Okay, follow him until the end!

(A tight defense)

They came in on the back. I'll go out.

Just like that.

Hey!

- Go together! - The ball!

Hey!

(Eun Woo quickly helps.)

Good.

- Mine! - Rebound!

Yes, that's what you're supposed to do in this case.

(That's it.)

- So they threw a shot. - Yes.

- And there was nobody, was there? - No.

You have to go to the side and...

I got it.

Okay. Go again.

Hey, defend!

Screen!

(The operation block-them-all Eun Woo continues.)

- On the bottom! - Screen.

(Cha Eun Woo)

(He quickly helps.)

Hey! Box-out!

Box-out!

Hey!

- Understood? - Yes.

(We'll try this on today's game.)

Sang Yun and Julien...

on the back have to do...

a lot of talking.

Now, let's have our opponents come in.

All ready!

(The opponents for the final pre-qualifying match enter.)

(Today's opponent is...)

(Team RED in Group B.)

(A perfect chance to experience a game in the league's level)

They have good physiques.

- It looks like it. - Right?

(An average height of over 185 cm)

(They're the gangsters under the basket.)

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. This is Jeong Woo Young.

I'm here again with the commentator Park Jae Min. Hello.

- Hello. - Yes.

The RED team from the S** Semiconductor.

They must be a quite strong team as they're playing in the league.

That's right.

The RED team of S** Semiconductor has...

a distinguished record of winning first place,

- Yes. - second place, and third place...

in the salarymen's league.

They also have a very long history of 32 years.

Yes.

It's a team that should not be underestimated.

Their sizes are all...

- They're all like Charles Barkley. - They all look to be 190 cm.

They are all really tall.

These are the players Handsome Tigers should watch out.

Bae Joon Hyung, number nine.

He's the ace of the RED team.

He's currently playing...

in the 30s team in Hwaseong.

He's also well known...

in internet streams.

(A perfect guard with outstanding dribbling, shooting, and stamina)

The Handsome Tigers players should...

look out for him.

Today, let's...

Listen up. I have a very important thing to say.

- We don't have Su Inn today. - No.

So a bit of the show has been aired...

and people are all saying...

that Su Inn takes 50 to 60 percent of the part.

- You all have some pride. - Yes.

We're not a team played...

- by Su Inn alone. - Yes.

So today,

let's play a good one...

with some pride.

- Yes, sir. - Understood?

So first we start with the zone.

- We'll use zone, 3-2. - Yes, 3-2.

- We'll first use the zone. - At the end.

When you get a rebound...

using zone,

quickly pass it over to In Soo...

- and you three should run. - Okay.

The three of you who are not doing the rebound have to run quickly.

- Understood? - Yes.

Here we go!

- Handsome! - Roar!

In Handsome Tigers,

In Soo, Cha Eun Woo, Seo Ji Suk,

Lee Sang Yun, and Julien Kang are...

in the starting lineup.

In the RED,

Cho Kwang Rae, Eun Hyun Jin,

Bae Joon Hyung, Sung Jae Jin,

and Kim Hyun Jun are...

in the starting lineup.

In the S** Semiconductor's RED team,

the average height is...

- around 185 cm. - Yes.

On the other hand,

Handsome Tigers is at a disadvantage in terms of the physique.

I'd like to carefully predict that Coach Seo may have planned...

to play a fast-break match from the start...

against the RED team...

- which might lack strength. - Yes.

(The wall in the first league quarter)

Don't step on the line. Get ready.

You have to come here. All right.

- Here we go. - At the center.

Tip-off.

- The RED first gets... - On the back!

- the ball. - On the left!

- Here, to Eun Woo! - Bae Joon Hyung.

- Box-out! - A long shot.

A very accurate shot from Bae Joon Hyung.

This player is known to make very accurate shots.

Bae Joon Hyung.

- Good shot! - Yes!

- Box-out! - Rebound!

(I can't believe he scores this.)

Here!

Go defend!

- Down! - Move up!

- They are behind... - Yes.

by three-points from the start,

- but In Soo is ordering a pattern. - Yes.

We're going to do the other one.

What are you going to call this?

Down.

(The call name is "Down".)

Ji Suk, go to that corner.

(Seo Ji Suk)

(Ji Suk moves to the corner behind the opponent's back.)

You don't need to go out all the way to the three-point line.

They might not follow you that far.

Then just throw.

(Seo Ji Suk)

(After Ji Suk moves to the corner,)

(they shoot when there's an open chance.)

- Down! - Down!

Go!

Go!

Okay.

Well done. If they don't come out,

then shoot with confidence.

Got it?

(A simple strategy, Down. Will they be able to pull it off?)

- Down! - Our team!

Down. Go!

- Ji Suk! - Don't come out.

- Hyun Jun, go out! - Go out!

(Ji Suk makes a late start.)

- Cha Eun Woo. - Hyun Jun, go out!

In Soo is moving busily on the outside.

He fixes into position towards inside.

(They're busy passing the ball regardless of the Down tactic.)

We have to attack!

- Watch out for the time! - Come on!

They have to widen out. Julien Kang gets a chance.

- Watch out for the time! - Come on!

Julien moves back outside.

Shoot with confidence.

A long shot.

(A three-point thrown pressed for time)

(Will it turn into their first points?)

- Five, four, three, - Four!

- Two, one! - Two, one!

A long shot.

But it doesn't make it in.

The ball bounces off toward the RED team.

Quickly, move back!

It's okay!

Cho Kwang Rae gets the rebound.

The RED attacks.

- Hey, on your back! - Cho Kwang Rae on the outside.

- Stay. - Stay there!

(I have to stop them all!)

- Bae Joon Hyung. - Mark him!

- Another three-point. - Rebound!

- It was short. - Eun Woo!

- Here! - Box out!

- Cha Eun Woo gets the rebound. - Eun Woo!

Cha Eun Woo did well...

in controlling his breathing. That was a good control in tempo.

(Lee Sang Yun and In Soo)

Under the basket.

Right on the front. They've connected the ball...

all the way to under the basket, but loses the ball.

Sang Yun, hurry and move back!

(Cha Eun Woo and In Soo)

The defense line is really good.

The defense between Cha Eun Woo and In Soo is great.

(Eun Woo and In Soo impede the fast-break.)

Right to the front.

- Rebound! - A shot...

under the basket by Kim Hyun Jun.

Rebound!

(A tip-in)

It's okay.

Even if they fail in the attack,

it's important that they get in the form...

- for defense by returning back. - Yes.

- Pass it back to me. - Move back!

Okay.

Go out.

Lee Sang Yun throws a shot on the line but it doesn't go in.

They get the offensive rebound.

A shot from under the basket.

It doesn't go in.

(A good rebound)

Box.

(But the shot under the basket doesn't go in.)

Nice!

Julien should score the ones like that.

To the back-court!

They should quickly return back.

Cho Kwang Rae makes a long pass...

and it connects at once leading to a short under the basket.

An under the basket shot.

They can use the court very widely.

Bae Joon Hyung gives the final touch under the basket.

- Nice, Joon Hyung. - Good job.

It's okay.

Stop...

and re-do the down.

Handsome Tigers are being pushed around...

in this early game and they haven't scored their first points yet.

- Down! - Let's go again.

- Down, go! - Get ready.

Block them.

The same pattern is ordered again.

- Good! - It's here.

- Hurry, go block! - It's here.

He shoots at the corner.

It's okay.

Well done.

- Good job. - Let's go!

It's showing that their plan is starting to work out.

That's right.

The pass came in when Seo Ji Suk was in a position he could receive it.

- Yes. - This alone shows...

that they can do it.

Yes.

It's okay! Move back quickly!

- RED's offense. - Let's go!

Defense!

I'm on the right.

- Not too close. - Two on the right.

- To Hyun Jun. - Pass!

- Here! - Bae Joon Hyung.

- Kim Hyun Jun. - Follow until the end.

Rebound.

- Pass. - From the front,

- He makes a jump shot. - Rebound!

It doesn't go in. Lee Sang Yun gets the rebound.

Run quickly!

Eun Woo, Ji Suk, aren't you running?

Sang Yun,

- Run, the rest has to run! - Come back!

Julien in the center!

(They need to do a fast-break, but they're moving at a slow speed.)

In Soo is passing over the half-court.

- Take this. - He splits to the right.

He shoots under the basket.

He draws out a foul while doing a double-clutch.

Are you okay?

It's one of Seo Ji Suk's strengths.

He ends up drawing out a foul with dribbling...

- Yes. - and draws out a free throw.

If he can start breaking the defense with this kind of offenses,

they can surely get various chances on the outside.

- Nice. - Nice.

Handsome Tigers earns...

their first points with the free throw. Seo Ji Suk.

Nice.

Tigers get their first point.

- The score is seven to two. - Good.

- The difference is five points. - Defense.

- Good shot! - Good shot!

Good shot.

Nice, Ji Suk!

- Get to your positions! - Defense!

- RED's offense. They make a pass. - Okay.

- Defend. - The offense!

- Focus! - Defend!

(They keep communicating and start the operation block-them-all.)

- Defend. - Jae Jin, move back.

- Julien, to the center. - We got time!

The defense got better.

- Defend! - Julien, to the center.

Cha Eun Woo is also moving actively in the defense.

Seo Ji Suk and In Soo's position fighting is looking very good.

Julien, to the center.

- Mark! - Go together!

Hey,

Okay. That's it.

Hey.

(You're doing good.)

Okay. That's it.

Hey.

Kim Hyun's shot from the baseline is rather long.

- Rebound! - Go!

Julien Kang gets the rebound.

(Lee Sang Yun, Cha Eun Woo, and Seo Ji Suk)

- Seo Ji Suk is doing good. - Cha Eun Woo is running fast.

- He makes a pass to the inside. - Cha Eun Woo!

- He makes a shot. - Cha Eun Woo!

- He jumps to throw... - Cha Eun Woo!

one under the basket,

- but it doesn't go in. - Cha Eun Woo!

- And throws a long pass. - Good shot.

Cha Eun Woo attempts an under the basket shot,

but he can't overcome the opponent's center.

The RED's basket is far too tall...

for Cha Eun Woo to replace...

the under the basket shot without Moon Su Inn.

RED's offense.

We have to move to the back-court.

Kim Hyun Jun.

(A quick return for defense)

Eun Woo, to the center.

- This time... - On the front!

- Sung Jae Jin throws himself. - Rebound.

It doesn't go in.

- Cha Eun Woo gets... - Nice play, Cha Eun Woo.

- the rebound. - Eun Woo!

Eun Woo!

(Hesitating)

Eun Woo, pass!

Eun Woo, hurry up and run! Go quickly!

(The fast-break is delayed as he hesitates.)

(There is no room to pass under the basket.)

In Soo.

The pass is intercepted.

He passes to the inside, but it's stopped.

Bae Joon Hyung.

- Stay like that. - Right to the front.

From under the basket,

- Nice. - a block shot!

Julien Kang.

- Nice. - Julien Kang.

You can't underestimate...

- Julien Kang's height. - No.

(I guard the gate of my own home!)

Nice blocking!

Julien Kang has already succeeded in getting...

an offensive rebound, defensive rebound, and a block shot.

A time-out. The score is 7 to 2.

- Sit down. - Have a seat.

Get some water.

Hurry and sit down.

Here, water.

Eun Woo, why are you so tired?

I'm not.

(The operation block-them-all Eun Woo takes a lot of energy.)

Listen up.

Focus more on the pass when doing a fast-break.

- Let's be quick. - Eun Woo,

when you get the ball, give it...

- to In Soo right away. - Yes.

Give it to him first and you run.

Don't stay in the center...

- and run quickly. - Okay.

- It's okay. Go on and play. - Okay.

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Let's toughen up just a bit more.

Let's go!

In the end, Coach Seo emphasizes...

- on the fast-break. - That's right. As I said earlier,

this line-up is for a fast-break.

- Yes. - Go out.

Here!

It makes a circle around this time.

- On the back, - Rebound!

Rebound!

Run! Eun Woo, run!

(Running at full speed)

Run! That's it!

All right!

(Both of the wings are running in full speed,)

(but In Soo slows down.)

- That's it! - You...

I told you not to stop, In Soo!

- That's it! - On the other side!

(Both wings run around the corner without resting.)

Go.

- Quick, - He's blocked.

- Cha Eun Woo, under the basket. - Cha Eun Woo!

- It's okay. - Nice.

(He moves around without resting to invade under the basket.)

- To the front. - Nice!

(But he misses the shot by a margin.)

Cha Eun Woo attempts an attack from under the basket,

but it's not enough to overcome the opponent's center.

Handsome Tigers is unable to give...

a finishing touch on their offense.

Moon Su Inn's absence does have an impact.

(The under the basket shots keep failing every time.)

Here.

(Handsome Tigers: 2, S** Electronics: 7)

- Eun Woo, get him. - Defend.

- There's one here! - Doing good, Handsome!

- Julien Kang blocks once again! - Yes, it's blocked.

Julien Kang!

(Julien blocks it twice.)

Julien Kang.

He is showing a monstrous performance...

in today's game.

- All right! - Great job.

- That's it! - Nice.

Come on!

That was good.

In Soo, don't just stand there. Go further.

Why do you just stop there? Go further!

Yes, Coach.

Coach Seo is giving out orders,

to the players.

Inside!

The score gap is held still at five points.

- Eun Woo! - Bae Joon Hyung.

Inside!

He goes head-on.

- Nice defense! - A pass is made to outpost.

A jump shot.

Julien gets the rebound.

- Go! - They need to run.

- Julien. - Run! Don't look at the ball!

- Keep on running. - In Soo.

That's it.

They need to run.

- There's no other option. - Get inside.

It's a fast-break after the rebound.

In Soo makes a pass.

- Lee Sang Yun. - That's good.

- Lee Sang Yun! - Lee Sang Yun.

He scores!

(Sang Yun scores a lay-up.)

He drives in, and the ball passes the rim.

It's 7 to 4. Lee Sang Yun scores 2 points.

The player with the best lay-up, within Handsome Tigers is...

Sang Yun and Ji Suk.

Lee Sang Yun finally scores after,

the continuous fast-break chances by the Handsome Tigers.

(That's what I'm talking about!)

Sang Yun! Lee Sang Yun!

You're the best.

The score is 7 to 4, with a 3 point difference.

Team RED is on offense.

Wait, hold your place.

- Number ten. - They're not coming out.

Take a shot.

At the side.

A jump shot, and he misses.

Sang Yun gets the rebound.

Julien, hurry.

Is it mine?

- A jump shot from the baseline. - Rebound!

(An open chance from the outside is missed while they went in and out.)

They need to score.

Team RED is back on offense.

(Team RED attacks.)

- Get back to defense! - To the back.

Cho Kwang Rae.

- Look behind you. - There's someone there.

They pass to the outside, and a jump shot for the baseline.

It misses, and the rebound.

Go left!

It's 3 on 3.

Rebound! That's it.

They need to run after the rebound.

They need to run!

Cha Eun Woo needs to run.

They have to go for the fast-break!

Take this.

They miss the pass,

and the last touch was by Eun Woo, that's a turnover.

While Seo Ji Suk was,

handling the ball,

it was blocked by his sides,

and the pass was not made.

(The scoring chance is lost due to a dribbling mistake.)

We'll change members!

(A player change.)

Seon Ho.

Eun Woo, step out of the court.

Are you having a hard time traveling abroad?

You did good, take a rest.

Ji Suk, mark number two.

- Good job. - You did good.

(Eun Woo is exhausted than ever.)

(The operation block-them-all takes a toll on the stamina.)

Cha Eun Woo looked very worn out.

It wasn't long before he returned from overseas.

That's right. He may still be experiencing jet lag.

Yoo Seon Ho is in the court.

He was switched with Eun Woo,

after he stepped off the court.

- Okay. - Stay there!

Team RED is on offense.

- That's it. - Check.

- Box-out! - It's going in!

It doesn't go in. In Soo grabs the rebound.

In Soo makes a run for it.

That's good.

- He needs to make it. - In Soo!

He jumps but misses.

- It did not go in. - Get back!

They keep failing to finish their fast-break shots.

Is Su Inn's absence that big?

Goodness.

Coach Seo must miss Su Inn a lot.

(Su Inn keeps icing the injured ankle.)

(It's the last practice match with six days before the nationals.)

(But all he can do for the team is rest.)

What should I do?

What do I do?

This is infuriating.

(Can they expect to win without their ace?)

Back! Go back!

Six minutes have passed.

Team RED is on offense.

- Down court! - He passes.

- Jae Hyun. - I'm here.

Ball!

A flawless pass is made,

and an under-the-basket shot is successfully made.

The Tigers have a 3-2 defense.

If the back defense gives in so easily like that,

their whole defense will go down.

Seon Ho, you should be checking those things.

Yes, Coach.

In Soo makes a long pass.

Seo Ji Suk, back to In Soo.

(A three-point chance made from passes.)

The outside is empty.

- They're open. - Shoot!

In Soo has a clear shot.

In Soo misses.

The Tigers get the rebound, but is blocked.

(Both shots are missed.)

- They missed both shots. - They need to go back quickly!

A long pass was made.

They didn't see the player behind them.

(A point loss from fast-break.)

We had three players in there, what happened?

(Why can't you block them?)

(Three defenses at the post.)

- A no-look pass was made. - Right.

The players need to communicate more.

"I'll block the guy in front, you block the guy at the back."

- They need such ta alk now. - Yes.

Hey.

Hey.

(We'll turn the situation with patterns.)

- Fist! - It's our pattern.

We're going to do a zone offense.

First, if there is an open chance,

you take a shot.

If they run up,

take a shot as usual,

and you grab it if the ball has been left up there.

Fist!

Let's use our tactics.

The score gap is now nine points.

- In Soo. - Fist.

Screen!

- A pass is made to the inside. - Screen!

The ball went to Julien under the basket.

The Tigers keep giving turn-overs.

Ji Suk, throw the pass after you look.

Don't just throw the ball!

Okay.

Geez.

(Su Inn comes back after treatment.)

(They score four points without their ace.)

The score gap is now nine points.

Coach Seo told Ji Suk,

to throw the pass after he looks.

- Okay. - Fist!

(They use the Fist tactic again.)

Keep talking to each other.

Let's go.

Yoo Seon Ho passes.

Seo Ji Suk.

(He misses the passing timing.)

He makes a long pass.

In Soo takes it,

but he fumbles.

A turn-over.

How many turn-overs are they making?

Grab it!

- That's good! - Yoo Seon Ho cuts the ball.

(Yoo Seon Ho steals.)

Stay there.

Okay.

Seo Ji Suk needs to score.

There is too many defenses, Seon Ho jumps.

He scores!

The score is 13 to 6.

Yoo Seon Ho scores for the first time today.

Back!

(Handsome Tigers: 6, Team RED: 13)

Good shot!

He shows why he has the back number 30,

and scores the shot.

In Soo!

Focus!

Okay.

(A dribble mistake by the point guard)

A basic mistake like this shouldn't be made anymore.

Coach Seo is very disappointed.

The score gap is now seven.

There are about two minutes left.

A baseline jump shot, it misses.

Seon Ho grabs the rebound,

and passes to In Soo.

They move fast.

The Tigers get another fast-break chance.

In Soo jumps, and misses.

Foul!

(He files a complaint after missing his shot.)

Team RED stops the score gap from closing.

A bank shot, it goes in.

- Their shooting is very nice. - Yes.

Go backcourt if you have the time to do this to the referee.

Yes, sir.

(Oh, my goodness.)

They can't seem to finish their fast-breaks.

Cho Kwang Rae.

Behind you, at the corner!

He's behind you!

(The opponent cleverly moves around them.)

- Behind you, at the corner! - Outside is empty.

From the corner, he shoots after the screen but misses.

An offense rebound is connected to a score.

The Tigers haven't found a way,

to stop the through a pass, coming from the side,

the inside the post.

Nice!

Okay.

It's fine. Let's try that one.

Down.

Down!

Let's do Down!

Ji Suk.

- What is it? - Ji Suk!

Come here, Seon Ho!

(In Soo, Seon Ho, and Ji Suk)

- Go! Ji Suk! - Corner!

Someone has to go to the corner.

(But Ji Suk shows no movement.)

Ji Suk!

Someone has to go to the corner.

(Down pattern is stopped just like that.)

The shot clock drops below ten,

and they are blocked by defense again.

(Another turn-over.)

Go.

A pass is made, and a shot from under the basket.

He scores.

(An unmarked shot goes in.)

Good shot!

(Handsome Tigers: 6, Team RED: 19)

That was good.

This can't be happening.

(Last practice match with six days until the nationals)

That was just...

The score gap is growing.

The Tigers are trying out...

a new pattern they learned today, Down.

Right.

The score gap is now 13 points.

Let's try Down again. Hurry.

- Go back! - Don't mind it too much.

- Let's watch them do Down again. - Down!

- That's three minutes for this. - Three minutes!

- Come here. - Look at the time!

Okay.

- Down? - Down!

- Okay. - let's go!

- Yoo Seon Ho. - Go!

Ji Suk.

- I thought you said Thumb? - Down!

It's Down.

(Didn't you say it was Thumb?)

Go over there.

It's a pattern!

The pass goes in.

Julien Kang from the inside.

That was number 50, Jung Jae Hwang.

He is 47 years old this year.

He is the oldest among all the players,

but he doesn't lose to Julien Kang in a physical match up.

(He suppresses Julien with experience.)

That was close.

Was it Thumb or Down?

- Down. - Down.

Down!

That was good guys.

That concludes the first quarter.

The score is 19 to 6,

and the first quarter is finished...

with a bit of a point gap.

There were too many errors.

You seem to be not focused on the game.

That's why you let them score easily with a fast-break.

Why are you all out of it today?

(They've lost focus, and there are too many turn-overs.)

If you made all the shots you missed,

the score would be about even.

You guys weren't that bad.

Okay?

The other five, come out here.

Now,

- Seon Ho, - Yes.

you're in.

You all know your positions, right?

- Yes. - Go.

Coach Seo just made a comment,

that there were too many turn-overs.

That's right. If you look at the numbers,

there seem to be four times as many turn-overs from the Tigers.

- Yes. - If they reduce their turn-overs...

they can reduce the point loss.

Although the first quarter was bad,

since they know what they need to do,

I'm sure that there will be enough time for them to catch up...

in the second quarter.

Okay.

This is bad.

We can't be like this to them...

What do we do, if we're losing even to them?

Showry is playing in the second quarter.

So is Jeon Ji Hoon.

Ji Hoon...

The defense is man-to-man!

In the second quarter,

he's ordered a man-to-man defense.

It'll be better for them to experience this before the league.

I got number 77.

I'll mark number seven.

In this second quarter,

they need to reduce their turn-overs.

(Let's play some basketball.)

Get the ball.

Take it.

But they make another turn-over, as soon as they began.

- Who do I mark? - Focus.

Get your head in the game.

They lost the ball again.

(They lose the ball right away.)

- Team RED attacks. - Who do I mark?

Do they go for help?

Okay.

Hey, Seon Ho!

- That was good! - Pass.

Thumb!

Thumb!

(We haven't heard that name in a while.)

Thumb!

- Thumb. - Thumb!

Thumb.

You have to assume five Su Inns are playing.

To play against those teams,

we need to have a play ready.

(It's a pattern that gives a chance to the shooter.)

(Seon Ho gets in place.)

- Thumb. - Okay, go!

Who's number two?

- Go! - Why did it change?

- Number two. - No, I...

Tae Sun!

Tae Sun, it's Thumb.

(He wanders without finding his place.)

Tae Sun!

- Go. - Just go for it.

No, Tae Sun.

Just play on.

(He gives up the Thumb.)

(They attack without a pattern.)

Outside!

The shot clock is running out.

They lose the ball again.

Jeon Ji Hoon.

Team RED attacks, and they score.

They keep scoring,

after the turnover.

Their line up is so short.

Tae Sun, you should have gone up during Thumb.

It's Thumb.

Thumb!

Find your place.

Hurry and go do Thumb.

Do it properly.

(They try Thumb again.)

- Thumb. - Thumb!

- Tae Sun. - To your positions!

Okay.

Go!

Okay.

(Where is he going while screening?)

(The next screener Ji Hoon is also fumbling.)

What are they doing?

They just...

Ji Hoon, you need to screen properly!

Coach Seo keeps telling them,

to focus.

What's important is how much they can apply...

what they practiced during their training.

That's it.

Thumb!

Thumb!

The shot goes in!

Good shot!

- Seon Ho scores. - Yes.

(Seon Ho gets an open chance thanks to Seung Hyun's screen.)

(Handsome Tigers: 8, Team RED: 21)

- A long shot by Seon Ho, - Good shot!

but it was inside the lines.

Tae Sun.

You have to screen the other player.

Ji Hoon, screen properly.

Tae Sun,

he...

He's just not focusing at all.

Hurry! Go! Run!

- They make it across quickly. - Nice play by Ji Hoon.

- Kim Seung Hyun! - He shoots while turning.

Kim Seung Hyun fails to score.

- He shoots again! - That's good!

- He scores. - Good job.

(Even if the first shot doesn't go in,)

He gets the ball back by thinking quickly on his feet.

(he scores by focusing until the end.)

(Handsome Tigers: 10, Team RED: 21)

That was good, Seung Hyun!

Okay.

Man-to-man, Seung Hyun.

- Man-to-man. - I got number 77.

You're 34.

(Seung Hyun has lost his mark.)

Coach Seo ordered on the defensive positions.

(He body blocks too late.

Oh, my.

Rebound!

Showry gets the rebound.

They are outnumbered by 4 to 2.

They pass to the outside.

Tae Sun shoots from the baseline.

It was a bit short.

(The fast-break fails.)

- The shot missed, - Tae Sun, nice.

the score gap is 13 points. A long pass, he jumps.

It counts as a point, and they get a foul.

(Team RED finishes a fast-break with just one pass.)

Baek Bae Heum gets a free throw,

and scored eight points in total today.

(Handsome Tigers: 10, Team RED: 23)

Just because your mark was standing there,

why would you stand there too,

without hurrying back?

Since he was just looking at his mark,

he couldn't fast-break and gave them an open chance.

That seems to be what Coach Seo is commenting on,

regarding the mistakes with the defense positions.

I see.

If you're done attacking, hurry back to our side,

and find your mark. Find him after you're back.

Don't just...

stand there with your mark, after you're done attacking.

Focus. Where's your head right now?

Where were you off to twice, when we were doing Thumb?

I was mistaken.

Tae Sun!

(He was motivated, but not so great at team play.

Hang on tight to the ball.

- Okay? - Yes, Coach.

(Having a tight grip is the most basic skill in basketball.)

Go play some more.

Let's do this!

- Let's be precise. - Find your mark.

The defense is still man-to-man.

Focus!

Behind you!

Cho Kwang Rae.

- Hey. - Mine.

- He dribbles behind them. - Showry is doing great!

Showry drew out the ball.

(He steals with his body.)

- Nice! - Good steal.

Do it again.

Hey!

(Let's do the offense properly too.)

He passes to the inside.

He shoots.

Seung Hyun scores!

(Seung Hyun scores two points.)

Seung Hyun scored four points total.

Good shot!

Nice.

(He has his charms.)

(Handsome Tigers: 12, Team RED: 25)

Match up with your marks!

- Match up! Check your marks! - It's 25 to 12.

Talk to each other a lot!

Find your match!

There's no switch!

- They are finding their positions. - Showry is doing a great job.

- Yes. - He's talking more.

Others need to do the same.

Foul.

- A three-pointer. - Rebound!

It misses, and there's a rebound battle.

He falls.

Yoo Seon Ho fell, but he showed a lot of movement,

and a wide vision.

Talk a lot.

(Let's go on offense.)

Showry.

He is ordering a pattern.

- Thumb. - Thumb!

- Thumb. - Thumb!

- Thumb. - Let's go.

Go!

They gave a sign and are going in.

(Screen's good, and the shooter goes around.)

That's it.

That's it, go!

They have an open chance.

(Seung Hyun's last screen is perfect as well.)

- That's it. - Go on!

- It's an open chance. - He shoots!

He shoots and he scores.

- That is a count. - Good job.

Handsome Tigers will take offense again...

because the foul was done after the shot.

Yoo Seon Ho is showing good shots today.

He has recorded six points into the game already.

Good shot.

He can catch up to five points in one offensive play.

That's right. They can follow up.

It's counted.

- Nice play. - Good job.

It was nice.

Handsome Tigers continues to take offense.

If their pattern play has worked on them even once,

defense players of the other team have no choice but to feel confused.

They will feel that this pattern is an effective pattern play.

Showry.

- It's a flow ball. - Check the shot clock.

It's a flow ball.

(Another turnover during this important moment)

That was too bad.

The inbound pass went out of the court.

What was he doing? Hey.

I thought he was behind me.

(Being the Tigers' coach is an extreme job.)

(Taking defense again with all their might)

They have five minutes left...

- in the second quarter. - They need to come in closer.

He scored with a no-look pass under the basket.

(Handsome Tigers: 14 Team RED: 27)

That's it.

Young players like Jeon Ji Hoon need to act as the heart of the team.

He is doing well in moving around like that...

and trying to give the other team a hard time.

He moves after getting the screen.

- He attempts under the basket. - It was a good pass.

But it didn't go in.

- He tries one more time. - That was Jeon Ji Hoon.

It was a putback shot by Jeon Ji Hoon.

Jeon Ji Hoon shot the ball back when it did not go in at first.

If Jeon Ji Hoon can play the role of Julien Kang,

they can surely position themselves...

- to a second offense option. - That's right.

Pass the ball.

Just shoot it.

- Ji Hoon has a good middle range. - He scores.

Good shot.

(Jeon Ji Hoon scores consecutively.)

Jeon Ji Hoon has scored four points.

Good shot.

Based on my experience of a practice game with them,

- He has quite a good middle range. - I see.

I hope he gets more chances like these.

Showry, that was a nice pass.

It's man-to-man.

We don't have a switch.

RED is demanding a strong screen more and more.

- Over here. - Do a screen for me.

- Do it. - He passes it inside.

He is isolated by himself under the basket.

- It was the buzzer-beater. - Yes.

Despite player number 30, Eun Hyun Jin's large physical build,

his movements are very light and smooth.

Move your defense closer.

- Match. - Ji Hoon.

- Over here. - Cho Kwang Rae.

- He passes it inside. - He shoots under the basket.

- He has great power. - That was player 30, Eun Hyun Jin.

Yoo Seon Ho has to play defense against Eun Hyun Jin.

But it still looks a bit difficult for him right now.

He's too difficult for Seon Ho to handle.

- He's way too high. - Pardon?

He's good too.

He asks for the ball when he knew Seon Ho was on to him.

- I think they're experienced. - They are quite experienced.

The shot clock is going under five seconds.

Kim Seung Hyun shoots.

The ball bounces back out.

It was short of the baseline jump shot.

- Lee Tae Sun directly comes over. - He needs to solve it.

He shoots under the basket but it fails.

- It falls outside. - It's quite high for him.

It's player number 50, Jung Jae Hwang.

He's the oldest among all the players.

- He has a veteran's skillfulness. - He attempts a three-point shot.

It does not go in, but he goes for the putback.

- He shoots. - It's Eun Hyun Jin.

He's taking over the second quarter.

He continues to show good performance.

(Continuing to lose points consecutively)

Go back!

(Handsome Tigers: 18 Team RED: 42)

Hey.

- Take it back. - They're amazing.

- It's the last shot. - Jeon Ji Hoon shoots.

(End of the second quarter)

That was the end of the second quarter.

It ended with a 24-point difference of 18 versus 42.

(All players go out the court with heavy breaths.)

Good job, everyone.

(The 24-point difference can be seen across the players.)

(If this game was a league match...)

(What was the weakness that Su Inn noticed?)

When I saw from the outside,

our defense was playing so well.

(Is the tight individual defense the problem?)

But you're playing too close to them that your space is easily exposed.

They're all good.

They look different.

They're fast in crossing over the court.

They don't stand still.

Look at Yoo Seon Ho. I think he's the core of their team.

- He's good. - I agree.

His shots were accurate.

Julien Kang has a harder body than I expected.

Really?

- He wasn't doing anything specific, - He was sturdy.

- but I couldn't go past him. - Is that so?

But because they don't have a proper pass from number one.

- it still works with our defense. - It's because their guard is weak.

That's right.

Their number one guard is weak.

(A point guard with a weak pass)

It was easy to defend since the number one's pass wasn't so strong.

They move a lot.

(Showry and In Soo's mistakes that led to turnovers)

Their attacks are monotonous.

- We'll move to the side. - I'm not sure...

if it's because they have different schedules,

but they don't seem to know what they practiced.

- It happened earlier too. - They were asking what to do.

Down.

(Inexperienced pattern familiarity)

(One statement...)

(from the silent Coach Seo)

Excuse me, did you lose on your game with Gyeonggido Office of Education?

Yes, they have someone who plays really well.

- They've got PE teachers. - That's right.

They're all composed of physical education teachers.

(Team RED lost to ATP, which is their next opponent.)

It was a game without Moon Su Inn,

but they still had a great score difference.

One more thing is that we don't have much time.

It's not easy to improve within a short period of time.

All our opponents are good in their games,

so I'm quite worried right now.

Recharge your energy now.

(Return of the starting lineup of the first quarter)

- Let's catch up. - In 1, 2, and 3.

Roar!

- Mark your own player. - Number ten is mine.

I'll take the player ten.

(Third quarter is a basketball of willpower.)

There is only one reason for the score difference today.

It's a difference in concentration.

- That's right. - They need to concentrate more,

and I hope they can show the plays they have practiced.

Okay.

The third quarter has begun.

Hit.

- It's a pattern. - They're calling out a pattern.

They need to talk a lot here.

- Wait a minute yet. - Kim Hyun Jun on the inside.

That was a good play by Julien Kang.

Keep it like that until the end.

- Rebound. - He jumps.

The rebound was taken by Lee Sang Yun.

He passes to In Soo.

(Cha Eun Woo and Seo Ji Suk run at full speed for fast-break.)

In Soo stands in the left-center.

He is thinking where to pass and he comes out.

- Wait a minute. - He specifies locations for them.

(In Soo cannot find anyone to pass.)

- Give it to Eun Woo. - Lee Sang Yun.

Hey, pass it to Ji Suk.

- Shot clock is under ten seconds. - The ball is isolated.

They are out on the baseline.

- Play offense. - They only have three seconds.

(Julien passes the ball mistakenly because of the time.)

It was a pass cut.

Kim Hyun Jun.

He shoots it himself, but it did not go in.

Let's go.

Seo Ji Suk has succeeded in defense. Next is In Soo.

(In Soo attempts to shoot a three-pointer.)

- Shoot it. - Go for it.

(A golden opportunity to bring the atmosphere back)

(Please go in the basket.)

It was a wide open three-point shot.

- It goes in. - In Soo.

(In Soo succeeds in the three points.)

It was a three-point shot by In Soo.

Point guards need to play offense when they get the chance...

to get more chances to make a pass.

- That's right. - All right.

- That was nice. - Go, In Soo.

Screen.

In Soo has opened doors with his three points.

Screen over here.

That's right. You're doing well.

Don't let them come in.

Don't give them space. We don't have time.

He shoots with five seconds on the shot clock.

(He makes a shoot hurriedly, but it goes in.)

The ball sucked into the basket.

- All right. - Good job.

The players have good middle ranges on average.

That's right. They have stable shooting skills.

Thumb.

(Attempting a thump pattern)

- Go. - Move down.

They're running out of time.

It's too late. Just do it.

- You need to do it now. - Okay.

Time's running out. They have five seconds left.

They've got four seconds.

- He takes the ball. - He noticed it well.

Two seconds left. Julien jumps in the air.

Go back-court. It's okay.

- It fell after hitting the ring. - It's okay.

It's mine.

Bae Joon Hyung moves past like lightning.

(An individual movement like a lightning)

(Handsome Tigers: 21, Team RED: 46)

It's 46 versus 21.

It's okay.

(He glances at Coach Seo.)

It's okay. Do it again.

(He glances again.)

- One. - Let's go for One.

Eun Woo, over here.

Come over here.

(It's the first time seeing this pattern.)

- Go. - Over here.

(Making noises)

Their shooter is good.

Look at that.

(Hello, it's your first time seeing a double screen, isn't it?)

(They make a screen as planned...)

(and do another double-screen here.)

He passes the ball to the left.

(A no-mark chance for Julien Kang)

(They played the pattern perfectly just as practiced.)

Switch.

The ball is passed to the left and he shoots.

- The ball does not go inside. - It was a failure.

It's a flow ball.

- It was pass-cut. - Let's go.

Go back and out front.

A pass-cut.

- Seo Ji Suk gets the pass. - Look forward.

- Cha Eun Woo. - That's it.

- He passes to Julien. - He took it well.

- Julien Kang jumps and shoots. - He needs to catch up.

But it does not go in.

- Julien. - Nice.

- Nice play. - You need to be stable, Julien.

Shoot it properly, will you?

Talk to each other.

Cover it.

What was that?

- It was empty. They need to go. - They're on the baseline.

- The ball does not go in. - Box-out!

- Rebound. - It fell to the side.

Play defense.

(He attempts a physical attack against Julien Kang.)

There's someone there.

(It won't work.)

- Look at his body. - Some courage he has.

- It's risky. - He pushed him...

and bounced back.

- The ball fell to the side. - There's someone.

Screen.

- RED continues its offense. - Move closer.

Cha Eun Woo lost his defense once. The player shoots behind.

(Team RED attempts a shot from the three-point line.)

(He does not do the box-out.)

- Rebound. - The ball does not go in.

They lost their chance of a rebound.

- It was another rebound. - Hey!

- Do it again. - It was Jeon Hyun Kyung.

Do it again.

- Mark! - All right.

- Who's in charge of number nine? - He's at the three-point line.

- That's it. - Cha Eun Woo plays tight defense.

- They lost the ball. - It's done.

They ran out of time.

- They weren't able to shoot. - It was a successful defense.

It's over.

(Why is he raising his arms?)

In Soo,

the time was not up yet. You were supposed to jump with him.

- Do the One again. - One.

- We're doing One. - Okay, One.

- It's One. - Go.

They're moving from far away and Cha Eun Woo is making a screen.

He gets a double-screen and gets the ball from the line.

- Over here. - No one's here.

- Julien Kang shoots under. - That was good.

(Handsome Tigers: 23 Team RED: 46)

That was Julien Kang's first score.

- Okay! - Nice.

Why is One played like that?

- Let's go. - Go.

(Sang Yun and Eun Woo fail in their double-screen.)

Here.

(Ji Suk fails in his center screen.)

Over here.

- There's no one. - That's it.

(Their pattern strategy fails and they pass to whomever.)

One is...

(Result is not the only thing important to the coach.)

RED continues its offense by Choi Won Joon.

He gets the ball.

The ball does not go in.

It was quite risky,

because In Soo was far from his mark.

Just as Coach Seo said, he needs to watch his mark until the end.

- It's In Soo. - Side.

Lee Sang Yun.

They stopped on their way.

- Five seconds. - Seo Ji Suk.

- He tried taking it but failed. - The ball was taken.

- Nice pass. - They need to go without fouls.

(S** has three players.)

Cha Eun Woo plays tight defense.

(Tigers had only Cha Eun Woo.)

(Handsome Tigers: 23, Team RED: 48)

- It's okay. - Those shots need to be given away.

- That's right. - There isn't any other way.

- The score is at 48 to 23. - I'm sorry.

Are you okay, Eun Woo?

It's all right, Eun Woo.

- V. - We're going for V.

- It's V. - In Soo has raised two fingers now.

- Go. - Don't bring it here.

(Cha Eun Woo and Lee Sang Yun)

(A successful screen)

(Cha Eun Woo, Lee Sang Yun, and Julien Kang)

He noticed it well.

(He connects well to the delivery man in the center.)

- Julien Kang. - He jumps.

The ball goes in.

The pattern was successful.

That's the way.

(Accurate movements will always work.)

(Eun Woo's movements are clearly slower now.)

- Hang in there. - Eun Woo.

- Are you exhausted? - No.

- You look like you're about to die. - No, sir.

Member change, please.

- We'll go next. - I'm fine.

It's all right.

Why are you saying you're fine when you look exhausted.

I used to be okay even when I play this much.

I wondered what was wrong, and I was feeling strange.

I have a role to play in the team.

But I didn't want to leave the court without fulfilling that.

- Row. - Over there.

- Row. - It's a row.

- Let's go. - Eun Woo.

(His legs los balance unconsciously.)

- His legs have lost strength. - Shoot it.

- Cha Eun Woo. - He passes to the left.

Cha Eun Woo gets the ball.

- Eun Woo. - Shoot it.

He shoots it directly.

It came out quite short.

Eun Woo, just go on like that.

- Back-court. - Go as you are.

Block him as usual.

- It's on your side. - Let's go.

It's a turn-over.

In Soo runs toward the center.

- In Soo passes. - Lee Sang Yun scores.

- In Soo's no-look pass. - That's right.

In Soo completely stole the opponent's attention.

It was a no-look pass.

He was looking at Cha Eun Woo and passed to Lee Sang Yun.

Lee Sang Yun could've been fooled.

Lee Sang Yun shot it calmly.

(He scores it easily with the fast-break.)

We can see once again how important it is...

to spread the wings on both sides.

That's right. Just as Coach Seo said,

if you go ahead and run, the chance will come to you someday.

I hope this can bring on a turn on the atmosphere.

(Let's run until the end.)

Look here, everyone.

They play better than we expected.

- Eun Woo, are you tired? - No.

- Can you still play? - Yes, sir.

- I can do it. - Show some more defense tightly.

- Okay. - All right.

We're going to play defense even if we don't score.

We'll play defense whether we score or not.

- Let's block them from scoring. - Okay

We're doing fine now.

- All right. In 1, 2, 3. - Roar!

Various patterns are going well in the third quarter.

That's right. Their concentration has gone up.

We can see the players playing offense aggressively...

when they get the chance.

- We see it from them. - Push it aside.

Coach Seo told them to focus and fight for their defense.

Their defense has changed.

Their defense is good. Five seconds is on.

Yes.

Go back!

He took it right at the moment.

It was right before they were called for the five-second violation.

Lee Sang Yun.

They are slowed down by the man-to-man defense.

- Their defense is good. - That's right.

(That's the way to go. Good job.)

That was nice, Sang Yun.

Cha Eun Woo jumps.

He gave the ball to the corner.

They take it slow. In Soo passes right!

- Nice pass by In Soo. - It goes in.

- He scores. - Lee Sang Yun!4

It was a combo play by In Soo and Sang Yun.

This is the role of Kang In Soo in this team.

- Yes. - He has to pass the ball right.

Nice play!

- Do it again. - That was nice, Sang Yun.

One more time.

Screen.

They are starting up now.

Make a screen, In Soo.

The player tries to push through, but Julien cannot be pushed.

- It's a three-point shot. - Rebound.

Make a box.

The three-point shot does not go in.

- Rebound is taken by Team RED. - Lee Sang Yun.

Nice shooting.

(A foul by Lee Sang Yun)

- It was a foul. - Nice.

You should've done a box-out before saying that.

I was going for it. I really did.

Were you going for it?

(You tried to get it?)

(The opponent has to be pushed by the box-out to get the rebound.)

Sung Jae Jin is doing a good job...

in pushing Julien Kang to the box-out.

- Yes. - He then gets an offensive rebound.

The Handsome Tigers need to act accordingly.

- Yes. - They need to do the box-out first.

Let's go.

- One. - It's One.

In Soo raised one finger this time.

- It's One. - Follow through.

(We can still make it.)

We're doing One.

Two players are making a screen.

In Soo uses that...

(Is it a successful double-screen?)

No, we can't.

(Julien Kang is blocked by the defense.)

Just push through and go in, Julien.

- We can't. - You can do it. Go get it.

The pattern is now broken.

- He shoots from the baseline. - Cha Eun Woo.

(Cha Eun Woo attempts to shoot despite the broken pattern.)

- Lee Sang Yun shoots. - It's putback.

It was a failure.

That's it.

(Handsome Tigers can't seem to shoot the ball.)

- Like that. - Defense.

Why did you jump first, Julien?

- Pass. - It's an offense for RED.

It's okay. Their offense is coming to life.

Sure.

Let's go as we are.

Just raise your hands, Eun Woo. That's it.

He's mine.

- That's right. - Switch.

(Sang Yun changes his man-to-man mark.)

- Switch. - Sang Yun.

Sang Yun, why are you acting on your own?

(Aren't you going to do the man-to-man mark properly?)

Rebound.

Nice!

- Sang Yun misses. - Our defense worked.

- Sang Yun! - Yes?

You have to follow the person you're marking.

(Sang Yun is frustrated about his play, as well.)

- Hey! - They're behind by 20 points.

Team RED is on offense.

- Nice defense! - Follow him! That's it!

- Okay... - He takes the ball,

- and takes it away. - Traveling.

He dribbled the ball into a spot...

- that was fully blocked. - That's right.

The defense was great.

Over here!

- One! - Back to One.

- Defend both sides. - Go!

(A loose double-screen)

Get out of the way!

They move forth.

(The formation is nowhere to be found.)

What are they doing?

In Soo, make sure they don't get it!

- It worked! - Will they make it?

He shoots!

- He did it! - It worked!

He scores six points.

(Julien the deliveryman finds a way to force the goal in.)

(The process is more important than the results in this round.)

Nice.

You have to get out!

Little by little,

- they're starting to catch up. -That's right.

Hey!

- Okay! - He takes the pass.

Rebound... To the center, that's it!

- Okay! - They break into the center again.

That's it!

(The defense is relatively stable.)

- Throw it! Okay. - They pass the ball again...

- to the other side. - To the very end!

- Seo Ji Suk. - It's in!

Hey!

It was too short.

- Go back! - Go back!

- Back to the other side! - Okay.

- Great defense. - Back to the other side.

Mine!

Mine!

- Screen. - Cha Eun Woo claims defense.

This time...

- That was great! - They take the rebound,

and Cha Eun Woo takes the pass. He's picking up his pace.

- In Soo. - Thumb!

Thumb!

They have enough time for another attack.

- That's right. - Go! Nice.

- The center is open. - It's open!

(Team RED notices and switches the defense.)

- Over here! - They failed to perform it.

He shoots and the ball flies up.

Bank shoot! It fails.

Sang Yun didn't go up to screen.

(Lee Sang Yun and Seo Ji Suk)

(Sang Yun must screen the center...)

(in order for the strategy to succeed.)

(He has stepped too late in screening the center.)

(Timing is key for the formation to be successful.)

Good grief.

That's the end...

of the third quarter. The score is 49 to 31.

The Handsome Tigers are behind by 18 points for the next quarter.

Sang Yun. Sang Yun.

You have to do the screen and get out of the way.

Why do you keep...

How many times have you done this?

You guys keep forgetting every time.

Don't you agree?

- I just couldn't break through. - No, look.

When you did it earlier, it gave you a chance to score.

Isn't that right?

Right?

Even though they know...

It's not that I'm not trying.

- It just wouldn't work. - Hang on.

I'm not trying to put you down.

- I'm sorry, but... - Just listen to me.

It doesn't matter if it works.

Getting to the spot as soon as possible is a different matter.

(The point of the match is to try out strategies as a team.)

(Whether they win or lose is not important.)

(The game is just another step before the national league.)

(But the captain couldn't help but want to win the game.)

(It's not over until it's over.)

(It's time to play the game by our rules.)

It's finally the fourth quarter,

and the last ten minutes of the game.

If they make more of an effort to attack in this round,

they could catch up in the score,

or even turn the tables around.

- Ten minutes is enough time. - It is.

- Defense. - Get on it!

- Okay! - Defense!

- Hey! One! - One!

- Go! - Don't forget to screen!

It's a double-screen. And In Soo moves.

Over here!

- Get it! - Julien Kang.

He breaks through the defense.

- Another attempt! - Putback!

Two free throws for the Tigers.

In order to defend against Julien Kang's height and strength,

Team RED had a double screen on him.

But he used it against them to win two free throws.

Hey.

Do this after the free throw.

(The coach calls for a zone press after the free throws.)

Sang Yun!

(They spread the word, in case they missed the instructions.)

(It's a go for a zone press.)

(They had pulled off the zone press against Goyang City Hall.)

They got a turn-over by traveling in the end.

It was a nice decision.

(An up-close defense to block the opposition's every move)

Two free throws.

- Nice! - It's a success.

(Julien makes the first free throw.)

- Seon Ho, you know what to do? - I do.

Behind Julien.

- Nice. - The second shot misses.

A full-court pass.

They're doing great!

Go back!

(In Soo suddenly changes directions during the zone press.)

Where are you going?

Team RED scores.

If In Soo had gone in forward a bit more,

he could have stolen the ball.

Why did he have to go back?

(He does great on defense and suddenly turns back.)

(In Soo's mistake gives way to the offense.)

Time-out!

Where were you going?

You blocked his path,

and the opposition had nowhere to go.

Why did you suddenly go off on your own?

Is this so hard...

(It's not a difficult strategy to pull off.)

It's okay if you miss a shot...

or let the opposition score because they're more skilled.

But this is a different story.

(What the coach wants is for them to execute a plan.)

You screened him perfectly well.

Then why did you suddenly leave?

Go out there as fast as possible,

and call out Down and Fist.

Call out and get there as soon as possible.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

- And watch the time. - Okay.

- All right? - All right.

Go out there.

Let's go!

We hope that they'll be able...

to focus more this time.

(They gather their concentration for the V strategy.)

Go!

Hey!

- Got it! - He runs and shoots.

It was too long.

(They miss the goal by a slight margin.)

Run!

Number 11! Man-to-man!

(The Handsome Tigers attempt a man-to-man defense.)

- Screen! I'll go, you stay! - Okay!

Lee Sang Yun pushes the offense away. Eun Hyun Jin makes a pass.

- A three-pointer. - Rebound!

It makes it in!

Rebound...

Good shot!

Defense.

- Kim Pan Jin of Team Red... - That was incredible.

makes a three-pointer.

(Kim Pan Jin's three-pointer makes it in smoothly.)

Make it 3-2!

(A 3-2 defense to block the three-pointer)

The defense formation changes to 3-2 in response.

They take the ball to the outskirts of the court,

- and must keep it on their side. - Corner!

- Corner. - Three points.

Rebound...

(The three-pointer discourages their defensive attempts.)

- Get Number 50. - Okay.

Hey!

He runs into the center and shoots.

(Team RED continuously breaks through the Tigers' strategies.)

- Again! - Cho Kwang Rae.

- That was incredible. - Right.

(There isn't enough time to turn the tables around.)

Yes, In Soo!

- He saved the ball. - Hustle play!

That was a great hustle.

- Seo Ji Suk! - A reverse lay-up.

It doesn't make it in.

- Now... - He steps forward.

- Great eye, In Soo! - Julien Kang shoots!

- That's it! - You have to hurry!

Five, four,

- three, two, one! - Give it to me! Go!

- Yoo Seon Ho! - A three-pointer.

It was too long.

That's the end of the last practice match for the Handsome Tigers...

against Team RED.

The game ends with the Handsome Tigers losing...

with a score of 76 to 42.

(It's hard to believe that they lost by 34 points.)

- Great work. - Shake hands.

Good game.

- Great work. - Good job!

- Great work! - Great work, everyone.

- Great work. - Good game.

(Coach Seo feels mixed emotions at the face of the upcoming league.)

Everyone, come to the center.

Stand right here.

That was a bit...

I can't say...

that I'm not a bit disappointed.

I'm a little taken aback.

(He can't seem to find the right words.)

Anyway,

I know it was strong opposition,

so great job playing against them.

You worked hard.

That was a bit...

difficult for me.

I had a good feeling about this...

in the beginning.

I was very excited about it,

but it's very difficult for me at the moment.

Coaching the team is not like how I had imagined it.

It's not easy to improve in such a short amount of time.

You really have...

to work as a team,

each like a part of a turning saw-toothed wheel,

moving systematically and in harmony.

That's how you gain the opportunity to score...

and play a good game. That's why...

I keep trying...

to get them to play by strategy.

If they keep playing like that,

their bodies will get used to different strategies.

So whichever strategy I call,

they'll be able to carry it out.

I was trying to get them...

used to the process.

(Everyone feels the heavy weight of disappointment and despair.)

Let's stay positive, guys.

We pulled off the formations a few times.

And the defense...

Well, although it was a bit...

- It was an error. - There were too many turn-overs.

(Su Inn is regretful for not being able to play in the game.)

- Good game. - Great work.

(The next game is the real deal.)

(Sang Yun makes his way to the locker rooms.)

(To the captain of the team,)

(the weight of the loss is heavy on his shoulders.)

(He lets out a deep sigh...)

(and a short groan.)

(They have lost...)

(every practice match before the official league.)

(The players enter the locker room, one by one.)

Sang Yun, don't take it so hard.

The official league starts next week.

(The practice rounds are over.)

And this is all we could do against the opponents today.

It's frustrating.

They've been playing together for a long time.

They work well as a team.

If you keep thinking like that,

coming up with reasons why the other team is better,

we're going to lose every time.

That's not why we're here.

We've been practicing so hard...

because we didn't want to make excuses like that.

But I feel like we haven't improved...

much in the past month.

(We've had a month to practice.)

(Are we still in the same place we were a month ago?)

We...

From the way I see it,

I think...

we were really in need...

of one successful game.

We don't have much time until the official league.

If we lose this game,

the feeling of losing...

all our practice games would bring our spirits down as a team.

So...

I was determined...

to win this game, no matter the circumstances.

Hey.

Don't take it so seriously.

It was just a practice game.

We have a lot to work on.

We do.

Do you guys want to practice a bit before we leave?

How about 20 sets?

- That sounds good. - I'm in.

Me too.

Let's do something about it.

- It's a good idea. - All right.

Let's take a short break first.

Let's eat something and recharge.

Let's come back by eight.

(They grit their teeth...)

(and get back out on the court.)

(They begin another full-on training session.)

That's it.

Get it!

(They continue training under Coach Seo's guidance.)

Hurry up! That's it!

Great work.

We'll just call that a foul. You did well.

Let's do it again.

That's it, go!

(They run, steal, and throw...)

(in response to their disappointment.)

Our players are putting their all...

into the training sessions before the league.

They've been practicing every chance they get.

As their coach, my role is...

to help them to demonstrate those efforts on the court...

and see that their effort was worth it.

(How will the team fare in their first game of the league?)

Hello, this is Moon Su Inn of the Handsome Tigers.

(The night before the first game of the national league)

We practiced hard today, as usual,

and now I'm ready for bed.

It's finally our first match in the league tomorrow.

I'm so nervous...

that I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight.

(They've trained together for the past 43 days.)

We'll do a good job, right?

My wife has made me...

a nice dinner before the game.

I'll do my best.

Showry.

(Showry's wife asks about how he feels.)

How do you feel about your first game tomorrow?

I'm not sure...

how we're going to do,

but I have a good feeling about it.

I hope all our hard work will pay off tomorrow.

I'm going to pray about it before bed.

Handsome Tigers,

good luck.

(Let's work together as a team!)

I'll say "We are", and you'll say "brothers"!

- We are! - Brothers!

(The official league begins and they have nowhere to hide.)

(The 12 Tigers are thirsty for their first win.)

(It's the real deal this time!)

(The Handsome Tigers head out to their first official match.)

(A championship league of the best amateur teams in the nation)

(The enthusiasm rivals that of an international league.)

(The match is on a different level from the practice rounds.)

(The Tigers put in their all for the win.)

Come on!

(The ace of the team makes his grand return.)

(Playing against the best draws out the best in them.)

They score!

They've done it!

The Handsome Tigers are...

finally making headway!
