Wow, the Bruins are on a roll. They finished the season strong to win the Pac-10 regular season championship, then won 3 games in 3 days during the post-season conference tournament to win that championship.
They are playing their best basketball of the season right now, which is a good sign: a team that is improving in its play, not just coasting on its talent. A sign of teamwork rather than just good individual players.
This is what was lacking in the Lavin era - players and the team never seemed to get better as the season wore on.
Fun to see this team and these players develop. Now 26-7, they are a testament to good coaching by Ben Howland. Bravo!
Now three weekends of basketball to go in March Madness!
"The Bruins moved up six slots in the Associated Press poll to No. 7. It is their first appearance in the top 10 since Jan. 2002"
