Day 8, July 28, 2001: 3rd-4th Place: South Korea – Syria 95-94,
OT (Seo Jang-hoon 27+11reb, Choo Seung-gyun 24 - Oussama Madani
30+10reb, Mohamad Hajar 27+15reb)
Coming off a disheartening loss in the semi, South Korea lost their
confidence and outside shooting in the last game. Thanks to a
surprising three-pointer from seldom-used PF Lee Gyu-sup, South Korea
managed to a 95-94 overtime victory over Syria and finished third in
the ABC Championship. Syria pounded the Koreans on the boards and
challenged South Korea's outside shooting. South Korea only made 4-24
from the three-point line and fell to a 39-51 rebounding disadvantage.
With a little luck, South Korea came home with a 3rd place trophy, the
worst finish in their last three ABCs. South Korea won the 1997 ABC
and lost to China in 1999 title game.
Day 7, July 27, 2001: Semifinals: Lebanon – Korea 75-72 (Fadi
Khatib 24, Toni Fahed 23 - Choo Seung-gyun 18, Seo Jang-hoon 17+12reb)
Lebanon pulled out the biggest upset in the ABC Championship today
when they edged South Korea 75-72 in the semifinal and advanced to the
championship game. The inspiring win also means Lebanon is going to
the 2002 World Championship in Indianapolis, USA, along with China,
which pounded Syria 94-55 in another semi match-up. Lebanon used their
man-to-man defense to contain the Koreans' perimeter shooting
successfully, holding slight lead throughout the whole game. Led by
Fadi Khatib, who scored 24 points, Lebanon twice overcame the Koreans'
furious comeback rallies which cut the deficit to one point. Lebanon
PG Toni Fahed also had 23 points. South Korea center Seo Jang-hoon had
17 points and 12 rebounds but saw his shots blocked three times by
Lebanon center Joe Vogel. Choo Seung-gyun scored a team-high 18
points. South Korea head coach Kim Dong-kwang complained about the
officiating after the game, claiming one of the refs from middle-east
country favored Lebanon. South Korea lost to Lebanon twice in the
previous three match-ups, with the other loss coming from the 1999 ABC
Championship. They did rout Lebanon 97-71 in the preliminary round.
Day 6, July 25, 2001: Korea – India 97-76 (Yang Kyung Min 21,
Kim Joo Sung 15+15reb – S. Robinson 19+15reb)
The Koreans made more than half of their output from beyond the arc to
subdue the Indians and bare their readiness for the crossover
semifinals. South Korea's firing squad put on another show yesterday,
making 19 three-pointers out of 47 tries to slash the Indians 97-76.

Seung-Gyun 5 -) Syria's 11-0 opening
run is nothing for the Koreans, because South Korea came back to make
10 of 20 three-point attempts and pounded Syria 85-71. South Korea
clinched the first place in Group II and secured their seed in the
semifinals. Kim Byong-chul had 19 points and 8 rebounds. Centers Seo

rebounds respectively. Day 4, July 23, 2001: Korea – Qatar
89-72 (Seo Jang Hoon 26+16reb, Cho Sung Won 18 – Yaseen Mahmoud 21+11reb) South Korea regrouped
in the final quarter with timely help from veteran Cho Sung-won and
center Seo Jang-hoon to beat Qatar 89-72. Seo had 26 points and 16
rebounds to lead South Korea. KBL MVP Cho Sung-won had 18 points and
made several key jumpers in the final quarter to open up the game.
South Korea limited Qatar to 30% shooting percentage but was 4-24 from
the three-point line. The Koreans also were plagued by their athletic
opponents, committing 32 fouls in the game . Qatar's Yaseen Mahmoud
scored a game-high 29 points. Day
