I know I’m supposed to be recapping the game for everyone, but if you’ll permit me, I’d like to start by being a bit selfish here. See, this is my 4th year writing at Bruins Nation, and in those four years I’ve been lucky enough to essentially tag-team basketball coverage with DCBruins through the Lonzo season in my first year to the wilderness that was last season. I got to write about some fantastic victories, inexplicable losses, dazzling play, and mind-numbing coaching.
So with that said, I hope you’ll be a bit understanding when I say that this was one of the most enjoyable games I’ve gotten to write about on this website, as the UCLA Bruins took care of business and defeated the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels by the score of 71-54.
