UCLA @ Washington State Video Highlights

by Telemachus on Feb 18, 2010 9:04 PM PST

After a two-game break video highlights return (because there are highlights actually worth watching).

Reeves Nelson is keeping the medical staff busy this season. He follows up his black eye (corneal abrasion) earlier this season with a concussion and then tonight he needed 15 stitches to close up a cut above his right eye. Maybe we should call him "Rocky." Hats off to a Ben Ball Warrior in training during this lost season.

Full game highlights after the jump.

Many thanks!

All that was on in my neck of the woods was the Olympics…

Got it on DVR myself

so didn’t read the game thread, but there’s frequently a link to stream the game online, or by asking you might find one.

Even after watching games, I enjoy T’s highlights. Appreciate it, Telemachus!

Funny quote

while watching this collection of highlights with me, my girlfriend asked, “where did all these skills come from?”

With Reeves on this team

We may need to consider employing a boxing/MMA cutman on the bench.

Sounds like a good nickname

For YEARS, the strength of the BBW teams was the backcourt.

We had an outstanding 4-man in LMRAM, and of course, KL was the best Bruin big in DECADES…

… but this team las lived and gone on life support on the basis of its abckcourt.

It’s no secret that our best years in recent memory were with TWO all-league players back there: JF and AA, AA and DC, and DC and RW.

Now? Excuse me, where’s my Imodium…

We are comforted, though, by the fact that we have an emerging frontcourt in TH and RN. One with length, quickness, and potentially GPS-level court sense; the other with strength, hustle, and a freaking 6.0-liter hemi where a normal person’s cardiovascular system would be.

Could be quite a ride…

I don't think anybody's mentioned this, but it immediately jumped out to me

Starting with ML, our kids have finally figured out that when you have a breakaway but there is an opponent hot on your heels, grab the ball and slam it hard for a dunk. If you try some weak lay-up, many athletes in D1 ball are more than happy to reject it and you end up looking like a fool.

Several of our players woke up last night and realized that a guaranteed 2 points (with a possible foul drawn) is far superior than a maybe-maybe not 2 point lay up.

Of course, this applies to everyone except for Ragovic. His dunk attempt was honestly one of the most hilarious and most fitting misses I’ve ever seen.
Telemachus, if you’re ever upset with Drago, could you locate that missed dunk from the second half and would you mind posting it? Thanks for all these vids!
