UCLA needed a leader in this game to step up and score and no one did. Was extremely unimpressed with juzang and Jules. When they aren’t scoring baskets, they are a defensive liability and last two games showed… they have trouble defending athletic guards. Be interested to see what their numbers were…

Also, why the abysmal 3 pt shooting? Juaqez, juzang, singleton, and Jules combined for 2 three point baskets. Meanwhile tyger who has been shooting well took 0 attempts?

I said in this game that ucla plays more like an nba team with lots of 1:1 … which is fine for developing nba players. But they’re gonna have to pass it around a lot better in conference play or they’ll wind up with a lot more losses then they’re hoping for

Not fun to watch... But out of adversity comes strength. This should (properly) bring the team down a peg and force them to focus. The second half was definitely better, but a 20 point hole was too big to climb out. Bruins now know where they are. Not close to #1. That's ok by me as long as they continue to improve and listen to their coach. Go Bruins!

If it gets us better in March, it’s still worth it.

Sometimes a 15 point loss in November in a top 10 matchup can lead to a 27 point win in March... here's to being on the right side of that this time

Happy Thanksgiving Mighty Bruins - let's all enjoy 62 helpings of our favorite sides and desserts!

On a bright side, I think Watson competed tonight and learned a lot tonight.

Thank goodness this is only a pre-season game. As has been said, let's just learn from it and move on. It is meaningless. Let's win conference and then let the chips fall where they may.

Someone on the DP show said that DTR should have gotten a good sportsmanship call for signing the kids hat and an extra 15 yards. Thought that was so true.

If we could win this fame or the one last Saturday, I’d take putting up 62 on SC all say.

Bruin90's avatar

We are going to need to find ways to score when the outside shots are not dropping. I think it is better defense and transition baskets. We have seen very little of that tonight.

This should be good for ucla… put them in their place… long season and they seemed arrogant I. The game yesterday and it showed up in the first half to put them out of the game

I never got arrogance from any of our players, baskets. Maybe they're too confident, but that's a far cry from arrogance

I think they played like they thought were hot shit yesterday. I like having fun, but yesterday I thought they played like they were special… like I said, I feel like this is getting exposed, I think it will make them better

I thought they lacked effort and were lackadaisical. Where in the game did you get the "hot shit" attitude, cuz I missed it?

Agree. I don't get that attitude from any of them. I really do think they've been under the weather.

I hadn't noticed that (arrogance) at their home games. But I agree this will make them better

We are still giving up too many easy shots/layups. We have had a few spurts of good play, but need that to be consistent. Let's see if we can close out the game with some intensity.
