Center Court: Ben Ball (Washington) Open Thread
Ben Ball warriors are back home from their first Pac-10 road trip of the season. They open up tonight against a talented Washington Huskies team, which handed us a stinging loss last time they played us in a Seattle.
We have talked all week about how we can't look past the Huskies. They are anchored by a "beast" in Jon Brockman, which means this guy will have to give us another stellar effort to follow up his awesome outings against Stanford and Cal:

In couple of years we will have a shot of Reeves Nelson doing the same thing in an open game thread. For more on how Love and rest of his Ben Wall warriors match-up with the Huskies and other notes on tonight's game go here, here and here.
The tip off is set for 7:30 pm PST (FSN Prime). If you are not getting the game on television you can follow it via links provided at the official site.
As always, if you are watching, listening, following, or tracking the game online, post your comments here.
This is our Ben Ball Warrior open thread.
Fire Away.
GO BRUINS.

UCLA up 16
Collison is out with the hip.
Just give the ball to Love or let Westbrook penetrate. Either one is a winning play tonight.
