Around SBN: Leandro Damiao Is Still Really Good

Sunday Bball Wrap Up

I think we are all ready to just move on from yesterday's letdown in Seattle. As much as we would have liked to see the Bruins come out and step on UW's throats, they just were not up for the game. However, the game was inconsequential.

As MIM points out in the diaries, Diane Pucin's article from the LA Times touches on AA's frustration at the way the Bruins did not show up in Seattle. Some of AA's criticism was focused on DC. Brian Dohn at the LADN also chimes in on AA's criticism of last night's performance. I think DC will take AA's criticism to heart and move forward. I think this is just AA taking charge and trying to assert himself as the leader on this team. He wants to put up #12 in Pauley before he almost certainly leaves for the NBA next season. I don't think DC will think that AA's comments were out of line.

At least the Bruins are still playing that Howland style of physical play when the shots aren't falling.

Sophomore forward Jon Brockman had 20 points and 13 rebounds. It was a game Brockman called "the most physical we've played all year," and it was the Huskies who willingly accepted the bumps and bruises, the elbows in the chest, refusing to back away.

Anyway, time to move on. Here is the PAC 10 tourney bracket. The Bruins will start off with OSU.

Go Bruins.

A throw away loss
A - thank you so much for holding down the fort. As I told rf in the diaries looks like you are conveying exactly what I would have tried to write.

Again it was throw away loss. I am not all that worried. I will come back strong early early tomorrow am. Cheers. Enjoy the weekend guys. Cheer up.

Thanks again A.

GO BRUINS.

Pac-10 Tourney
So the Pac-10 Tourney shakes down like this
UCLA vs. Cal/OSU winner
Zona vs. Oregon

Wazzu vs. UW/ASU winner
Just$C vs. Stanford

I think that looks pretty good for us...

4, 5
How do we know who will get the 4,5 seeds between Oregon, USC and Zona? They all finished 11-7.

Bizarre tiebreakers were already calculated and
The seeds are posted on Pac-10.org.
justSC is 3, Oregon is 4, the Standard, by which I guess they mean the median, is 5.
