Let's get it done today Bears!!!!

Beat the baby bears
(More ucla fans here than usc fans on Wednesday)

Beat the Ruins.

They "welcome back our cal basketball alums"

… without announcing their name!!??

How do you avoid fouling when a player Euro step bull rushes you?

2 successive TOs against the press

What other team extends a hand to a fallen opponent? None.

Their defense is killing us. Down 17-10

In game in LA the bruins had a lot of unforced turnovers

In this game ucla is forcing a lot of turnovers

Score is the result

Newell was easy Pickens there

Gus is a classy guy… and who knew he could knock down a three? Need an answer to the TOs.

Ally ….oops

Grant forced the contact. Aggressive move

UCLA stats better in every category

This game got off to a start with Tyson clearly auditioning for the draft (and doing quite well with that) but I think it messed up the mojo a bit, and then everything fell apart. Aimaq is having a bad one. That doesn't help. We have to make some shots. Painful to watch. Not bad on defense. Not bad on rebounding. Just not getting the ball into the basket with wide open looks, and unable to score down low, at all. Talent is lacking tonight. And a non-sellout probably reduced the enthusiasm of the team as well, and you can blame that on the morons within the AD.

turnover count?

UCLA defense was really outstanding in the first half.

how close is it to a sell out? seems relatively well attended

7000-8000 is my guess

50-60% full. Maybe less.

I think Cronin took our criticism to heart, after the last game, and decided he would go back to being a good coach.

Perfect weekend for skiing!

Also, LOL the people who said the Lebron/Bronny Factor had zero to do with the sellout last Wednesday. This is the only time EVER that I can remember the U$C game outdrawing the (F)UCLA game. Doesn't help that the Baby Bears have no well-known players whatsoever.

Allright, let's get 'em in the second half! Go Bears!

Nice Pano shot.

not even close

Casey: "Cal plays much faster under Mark Madsen than under Mark Fox."

Which I would argue is a reflection of the speed of their respective brain function.

*Casey's love for fellow Furd Madsen has morphed him from Cal hater to Cal homer.

Daws is getting schooled by Bona. This is by far his worst game. Onle 3 points and 3 rebounds 5 minutes into the 2nd half.

Aimaq terrible shot, transition failure to box out, followed by a foul. Rinse, repeat. Just not acceptable. Let Gus play when this is what you're getting from Daws on a bad night.
