Last game

Ulsan Mobis defeated Seoul SK(8th of league) with 82:72

Seoul Samsung defeated Daegu Orions(9^th of league) with 92:85

Most books expect Ulsan Mobis defeat Seoul Samsung with very small gap. But we should take a note that there is the most important factor. A foreigner can’t play for Ulsan Mobis due to his injury. As a result, Mobis record is not so good in last 5 games. And Samsung has the best foreign player who is the No.1 in score and rebound in the league, Mobis has difficulty in defending him.

In conclusion, Saumsung will beat Mobis with +1.
