A Question For Bruins Nation ...
Would the basketball season still be fun, if UCLA didn't have a great chance to win the national championship? I was thinking about this the other day: I think we have a good team, potentially a really good team. But it isn't quite as good as last year's team. How could it be, we lost three NBA...
Roundup from BN Walk: News & Notes
Let's start our Sunday walk with a heavy dose of Brian Dohn, who posted the following notes re. the football team: I was at UCLA's 7-on-7 Thursday and the thing that jumped out at me was the ability of several of the freshmen defensive backs, particularly Aaron Hester and Rahim Moore. Both are...
... From U --- C --- L --- A
So in case you missed last night's Ben Ball party ... number 4: and number 5: RW, KL, and LRMAM are in. I am sure all of us are rooting for LMR to sign a free agent K with a team that can best take advantage of his strengths here in the NBA or across the pond. Here is to these guys...
More Post-Draft Musings: Polishing The UCLA Basketball Brand
Wanted to follow up with few more notes to close the loop on UCLA’s big Thursday night party in NYC. Yesterday, I mentioned how going to Minnesota probably means that Love will have to compete for time against Jefferson. Meriones had a different take on that point: I’m not sure KLove...

Roundup From BN Walk: News & Notes
Time for another walk. We haven’t done this in a while. We will start with golf. Tiger was the unquestioned national star/superhero from U.S. Open. However, there was another important story with a Bruin angle from Torrey Pines, we all need to take note of: Almost nothing stayed the same...
What, if anything, did what you learned at UCLA prepare you for the NBA?
Kevin Love was interviewed after his workout with the Memphis Grizzlies. What, if anything, did what you learned at UCLA prepare you for the NBA? Toughness and also character. On the court, I’d definitely say defense because coach Howland emphasized that the whole year. In high school you...
Roundup From BN Walk: News & Notes
We will start our walk with a look at Chad Ford’s mock draft (version 4.0) on WWL. Ford is projecting KL to go at number 5 slot to the Grizzlies: [T]he strong feeling I got from talking to sources close to the situation in Memphis is that Love is the favorite. His toughness, rebounding...
