FORBIDDEN LOVE?

Looking for Love

George Washington treats Kevin Love like a Cherry Tree, but Westbrook, Shipp, and Collison turn the bark into teeth that bite

Kevin Love is a phenom all right, but he’s certainly no one-man team.

Love is SO good, that now he can be considered “held in check” despite getting a double-double.  Love scored 11 Points and grabbed 11 Rebounds in Wednesday night’s 83-60 beating of George Washington U, but for the first time in this 7-game season, he wasn’t a candidate for game MVP.

With GWU doing everything in their power to slow Kevin down, including double-teaming him BEFORE he even had the ball, RUSSELL WESTBROOK stepped up. 

Westbrook scored a career-high 19 Points, dished out 8 Assists, and basically controlled the game by repeatedly driving, penetrating, and dishing (or dunking).  He also got 2 Steals and SEVEN Rebounds.  Westbrook, who just shaved off his flaming mohawk,  picked a good time to showcase his improved skills, as the game marked the return of Darren Collison — the man whom Westbook had been spelling at Point Guard. 

Collison returned with a roar, scoring 14 with 5 Assists, and playing 26 minutes without favoring his injured knee too much.  He was tentative at first, but seemed to gain confidence as the game progressed.

Josh Shipp is still the most important SCORER on this team.  He got 15 against GWU, many of which came at key junctures.  He also finished a fast break by catching Love’s best outlet pass of the night.   The two-handed, overhead strike was Love’s highlight, and is already becoming his well-known trademark that will dot the news shows all season long.  It is reminiscent of when Jim Edmonds was an Angel, and it seemed like each night the Sports News would include another one of his Center Field web gems.

On the recent topic of usc moving to the Rose Bowl —

UCLA has the contractual right to VETO any deal of this nature, and says that they would NEVER approve sc moving in on a long-term basis.  And you can rest assured that they would let them come temporarily ONLY if the Bruins were to PROFIT quite handsomely.

Of course we are against it in ANY form, but if the financial benfits could re-build Pauley and allow the Football team to hire anybody that they desired, then we would hold our noses for a year, until the trojan stench dissapates from the Arroyo Seco.

Below are a few photos from Pauley, where the Bruins have won 25 straight, including a couple of “stylized” shots (In other words, there is nothing wrong with your computer.  We are just playing with another alternative to the dreaded “cropping”).

I cannot tell a lie… I’m in love with four different women.  (This week on “Dr. Phil.”)

You can’t tell from this pic, but:  UCLA — Where even the Executive Director of Cheerleaders is a hottie!

Hopefully this doesn’t embarrass her, but check out the Che Guevara Beard and Mustache on the far left girl!

Okay, here we go with stylizing, looking for a happy medium…

We bet the girls aren’t offended by this… but our readers probably are.

We think it’s still a cute shot.  Do you?  Is it worth it?

DON’T FORGET:  TONIGHT IS THE BEAT SC PARADE, RALLY, AND BONFIRE (ON CAMPUS).  IF YOU ARE A REAL, HARD-CORE FAN, YOU WILL BE THERE, REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU THINK IS GOING TO TRANSPIRE ON SATURDAY
