For all their success in Pac-12 Conference play, one nervous win following another, UCLA players will freely admit it: They’re an imperfect 5-0.
The Bruins foul excessively. They struggle to stay in front of dribblers who either too easily find their way into the paint or pass to open shooters. Top shooters Jake Kyman and Johnny Juzang have failed to make a third of their three-pointers. The team couldn’t even inbound the ball cleanly late in the game against Arizona on Saturday.
Somehow, all those problems have failed to leave a blemish on their record.
