Wonderful

Thanks uclafan11, that’s just great. Hearing all those records really reiterates how lucky we are to have Ben Howland and all that he has achieved with his players. As for seeing the joy in the faces of the players and their families…well it’s just brilliant. Thanks!

Wow! Thank you!

I am sorry to have missed this in person — it’s a penalty of living in Exile.

Even removed by so many miles, this gives me goose bumps.

PS. Has anyone noticed that Bobo, on and off the court, has inherited JS’s smile. DG’s passion, Bobo’s smile — as much as I will miss our big 3, I look forward to the next generation.

I totally see that

Bobo is the new Shipp. He seems to be living the dream all the time. He’s always smiling on the bench. I see Gordon as the new Aboya. The guy just works, and works, and then he works some more. Drew also already has many of the things that Aboya developed as a player this year. He’s gonna be huge for us, you can tell. It’s too soon to tell whether Jerime is a Collison or a Farmar. I’ve seen a little of both from him. Malcolm might just be the next Afflalo. There are some guys that just play on an even keel no matter what’s going on around them. It’s the product of a singular focus and intensity. Lee’s drastic defensive improvement even with little actual playing time is a very positive sign for us going forward.

Yes.

Bobo’s smile is genuine and infectious—he’s joyful.

Love My Bruins

You are most welcome!

Glad everyone enjoyed the video. It was hard to film since I was getting emotional in there! I moved and stood in front of the students, which was awesome – hearing them chant their names one last time in Pauley.

Tydides, I like your assessment/comparison of the younger guys and who they could become. I think you are right on the money. I can’t wait to see these guys develop and hope they all give us solid contributions in March/April. GO BRUINS!!!
