The results of the bench against the starters were evident, and the Rams quickly led by as many as 25 points. But Meng Xun could only watch blankly from the sidelines, he didn't want to change to the starter, after all, no one wanted to suffer a black start to the new season, but now the starters of the Bulldogs team are all slumped in their chairs and gasping for breath, and they can't play if they want to.

McKay didn't plan to kill them all, and it was already a rare thing for him to lead the opponent by 25 points in the first half, so it would be better to put on the bench one by one and give them a taste of the team's new tactical system. Before training was training, the official competition was still a little different, and now it is better to go up and practice than to sharpen the gun when the time comes.

However, McKay still attaches great importance to this game, and he does not have all the substitutions in his mind, so it is easy to mess up. In the second 10 minutes of the first half, the Rams maintained a two-start, three-bench lineup for most of the game, which not allowed the opponent to quickly close the score, but also allowed the benches to feel the atmosphere on the court.

Soon the first half was over, and the Rams led by 18 points at 60-42, thanks to a last-minute buzzer-beating three-pointer from Hall, otherwise the difference would still be more than 20 points. However, for the fans who attended, the most important thing was that the team played well, and they all slipped out of the stadium at halftime, ready to call their friends over to watch the game, and in their eyes, this Rams team is no longer the team with the dull style of play last season.

So by the time the break was over and the two sides returned to the court, everyone was taken aback, the originally somewhat empty arena was actually full, although it did not reach the level of popularity with people standing in the aisles, but it was a rare grand occasion for the Rams, not to mention the last few bad seasons.

Chang Wei knew the reason for this with his knees, and it can be seen that fans have shown interest in the Rams' game, which is undoubtedly a good start. If any team is not loved by the fans, then most of the team has no future, let alone building a devil's home stadium.

The Bulldogs, for their part, fielded their starting lineup, and after the final stages of the first half and halftime, they finally recovered, but there was still an unconcealed awe in their eyes when they looked at the Rams. They have learned how devastating the fast-paced game can be, but the opponent looks so good that they have to shudder: if the whole game is so fast-paced, wouldn't it be a broken leg?

However, the Rams' players didn't care what they thought, and everyone saw the benefits of the new system. Although it may seem a bit boring to constantly run, receive, pass, run, receive, and pass the ball on the court, it is such a boring procedure that can easily tear apart the opponent's defense and get the opportunity to shoot in the open space.

Moreover, after the previous special training, everyone felt that their endurance had improved greatly, and they could run at full speed in each round and last for the entire first half. Of course, under McKay's deliberate substitution, no one played the entire 20 minutes of the first half, but every player who was replaced felt that he was still full of energy, and it was not a problem to run for more than ten or twenty minutes like this, so didn't he run the first half?

God didn't seem to hear the prays of the Bulldogs, and the Rams replicated the performance of the first half at the beginning of the second half, with five people running wildly on the court, and even defending with a physically exerting full-court press. This is not McKay's instructions, it's just that they feel that they didn't play well in the first half, and now they can re-enter the game, and how to be free and unrestrained, and the full-court pressing is nothing at all.

This is a pain for the Bulldogs players, who have never seen a big lead use a full-court press. The original mentality was a little unbalanced, and then there were consecutive mistakes when pressed, and with the speed of the Rams, these opportunities were not wasted at all, three fast-break counterattacks, two dunks and a three-pointer opened the difference to 25 points.

The point difference was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the players became listless on the field, not to mention the shooting percentage. In fact, this is also because the pit bulls team does not have the resilience of a strong team, and if they change to teams like North Carolina and Kentucky, even if they are already 25 points behind, their players will grit their teeth and continue to work the court.

The 1994-95 Rockets are a living example of this. As the defending champion in the '93-'94 season, the Rockets finished in the '94-95 season with a 47-35 record, finishing only sixth in the West. However, after entering the playoffs, they first eliminated the Jazz in the tie-break, and then eliminated the Suns in the second round through the tie-break, and then defeated the Spurs 4-2 to advance to the Finals after coming to the Western Conference Finals, and finally swept the Magic 4-0 to win the championship again. The team's head coach Tom Janovic's phrase "don't underestimate the heart of a champion" has become a popular inspirational phrase in the NBA.

But the Bulldogs obviously don't have such a consciousness, they only feel that no matter how hard they try, they can't narrow the difference, and everything they do is useless, so why fight so the field? With such an idea, it is natural that you will not be able to play well, after all, in addition to the physical condition in the game, the psychological condition is also very important, a team without fighting spirit, even if your overall strength is strong, no matter how good your star is, it will not be able to win.

Looking at the players on the field with a loveless look, and then looking at the time on the timer, Meng Xun shook his head helplessly, and removed all five starters and replaced them with substitute players. At the end of the game, everyone lowered their heads one by one, their faces were very ugly, and as soon as they sat down, they took a towel to wrap their heads, as if they didn't want to see such a tragic score.

Meng Xun is not easy to say anything, in fact, he himself is a little puzzled, it stands to reason that the overall strength of the bulldog team is still above the Rams, no matter how you look at it, it should be that he led the team to win, why is it now a slaughter of the opponent? Is this small-ball tactic really so effective?

He was reviewing himself off the field, but the time of the game was passing by minute by minute. The 20 minutes of the second half were quickly over, and the victory was undoubtedly won by the Colorado Rams, who won by a shocking 110-83 scoreline, and such a ferocious offense certainly set the tone for the team's style this season.
