Love: “Karma is a [bitch]!”
Published 3/27/2008 by blackjack at The Gutty Little Bruins
We all remember that post I wrote about that dude who go this car taken away when his parents got a hold of that picture of him flipping off K-Love? Yeah the one that I published…4 minutes ago? Well, this is what Love said at the press conference when a reporter brought the incident it up: Q. Did you see where the dude who sort of gestured towards you got his car taken away by his dad? Have you heard about this? KEVIN LOVE: I have not. Q. The kid who sort of gave you the double whammy at Oregon, his dad saw a picture, recognized his son as a kid doing that to you and took away ...

The West Region, Ben Howland, Brian Dohn, and the #2 Center in the Country

guttylittlebruins posted 3/21/2008 from guttylittlebruins.com

I seriously think Texas A & M is going to be UCLA’s hardest game until the Final 4. I’m sure you all know that Kevin Love was the #1 Center in the country coming out of high school last year. Do you know who #2 was? I do. He goes to A & M. And He’s a beast inside.

Why Should UCLA Play Kevin Love and Luc Richard Mbah a Moute Today?

Rover found this 3/20/2008 on sports.aol.com

The talent gap between No. 1 seed UCLA and No. 16 seed Mississippi Valley State, who play tonight in Anaheim, is so great that UCLA could probably keep all five of its starters on the bench and still win. So with center Kevin Love nursing a back injury and forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute nursing a sprained ankle, it's surprising that coach Ben Howland says Love will definitely play today ...

5 Thoughts on WKU

Posted 3/28/2008 on The Gutty Little Bruins

1. I’m terrified. I do think WKU was a vastly underrated team, but did any of y’all see North Carolina absolutely dismantle Washington State? That was a freakin’ massacre. If UCLA gets lazy or complacent against Xavier, Ben Howland ain’t going to make 3 straight final fours. 2. James Keefe. Wow. Unbelievable game. and clutch. It’s [...]
ESPN: Ben Howland is the Best Head Coach without a NC

Posted 3/26/2008 on The Gutty Little Bruins

I love Ben Howland. ESPN’s got a legit article on Howland, saying he’s the best coach to have not won a title. Here are some excerpts. Howland isn’t steak, he’s meat loaf. He isn’t going to do a Bruce Pearl, apply a coat of body paint to his bare chest and hang out in the student [...]

Day In Review: March 22, 2008

Posted 3/23/2008 on Rush the Court

The story of the day was UCLA surviving an upset bid by Texas A&M. We (like a lot of other analysts) thought that UCLA had a clear path to San Antonio. With the 2 (Duke) & 4 (UConn) seeds in the West going down in the past 24 hours, things looked pretty easy for the Bruins. Instead, Texas A&M opened up a 10 pt lead in the 2nd half. After falling behind 36-26, Ben Howland rode ...

West Regional Analysis

Posted 3/20/2008 on Rush the Court

For our final regional analysis we look to the West which has 2 of the most storied programs in the history of the sport as its top two seeds. Teams #1 UCLA: The Bruins seem to be the popular pick among analysts. We can clearly see why. They have experience (and no UF to go through this year), an inside game, an outside game, and a solid coach. Ben Howland has done an excellent job ...

Let's start once again with the update on the conditions of LRMAM and KL. From the Daily News : UCLA starting power forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute did not practice Tuesday, but not because of his sprained left ankle. He was absent because of a final, but did some light shooting later in the afternoon. However, UCLA coach Ben Howland was uncertain if Mbah a Moute will be available when the ...

Posted 3/17/2008 on NCAA Hoops Today

Well, well, well, we have some great upset specials for you. Our most likely upset is in the Sweet 16, where Hasheem "Shot-blocking" Thabeet blocks out the sun, has a triple double, sinks the "Beached Whale" (Kevin Love), and UConn beats up UCLA in double overtime and moves on to the Elite 8! Ben Howland cries, Kevin Love lays an egg, and they all go to the NBA, Howland included ;-) A few ...
