<p>For discussions about our awesome bball team :D</p>
<p>So who's going to the game on Friday? I am!</p>
<p>FTR, if anyone doesn't want to use their den ticket for a particular game I'd love to go so just post a message before the game or something and it'd make my day. </p>
<p>On a more serious note the teams shaping up pretty good from what I hear. I listened to Howlands last press conference on the injuries and it seems that with the exception of Roll (3-5 weeks) the bruins are solid across the board. I heard Collison probably wont play this friday but, seeing as its portland state, he shouldn't be needed. Love looked excellent in the exhibition games...his outlet pass was amazing, but these were against two very crappy teams and it'll be interesting to see how he can throw his weight around when physical teams like Oregon, SC come to town. </p>
<p>One thing that I like about college basketball, as opposed to football, is you can have these injuries during the beginning of the year and still do well. That is to say, if you have a rough first couple of weeks it's still very possible to finish with a 1 seed just because the length of the season and the fact that nobody goes undefeated. That being said however the pac10 is far and away the best conference this year (la, oregon, wash st, sc, zona, stanford) and winning that is an accomplishment in itself....and once you get to the NCAA's I think it's stupid to predict a winner due to the uncertainty the tournament always produces.</p>
<p>Yes... I am! Right after Disneyland! :D</p>
<p>Is Shipp cleared to play on Friday?</p>
<p>Honestly, I'd rather he sit it out and heal up the thumb, cuz, I mean it's Portland State so we probably won't need him.</p>
<p>Ditto on the unused tickets, good call.</p>
<p>I can't wait until we get into the thick of it :D..</p>
<p>[EDI]Lol, I'm liking the thread title, btw. Consistency ftw..</p>
<p>Shipp is cleared but I heard he's not expected to play unless he's needed (ie, close game late)</p>

<p>haha yeah, I made sure to copy the title format exactly, cuz I'm OCD like that...</p>
<p>Guess what, I saw Josh Shipp walking by me on the way to class today. Pretty cool, he didn't look that tall in person actually. When you hear 5'6 or whatever he is you expect this giant but when you see him alongside you he doesn't seem that big..</p>
<p>LOL @ 5'6" Josh shipp. But yeah, he isn't terribly tall</p>

<p>If you have Den season tickets, your tickets are on your bruincard. If you applied for Den season tickets, CTO should've emailed you some time ago about whether or not you got them.</p>
<p>This team is pretty damn sweet!!!!!! I was really worried about love when he hit the ground hard on that one move. I thought he would get yanked or walk off the court quick, but no he stayed out there and shook it off. This kid picks up on everything. He sucks in everything that comes off the hoop. plus in the post game interview he applauds the team for their hard work, cool kid. Josh Shipp is awesome as well.</p>
<p>Megathunder take peter sellars class, you will be able to gaze upon all the basketball players. haha</p>
<p>For real? What class is that? Haha</p>
<p>Yeah, I watched a bit of the game and thought it was a little boring, but once we start playing good teams that'll change. Plus Darren changes the whole pace of the game and keeps us playing at breakneck speed without slacking off. So obviously missing him kinda slowed things down.</p>
<p>Excited for the football game today!</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Do non-students (e.g. parents) get tickets to individual basketball games through the UCLA athletic website or is there a better way for students to get tickets for non-students? </p></li>
<li><p>How do students who didn't get 'chosen' for bball tickets (sigh) get them?</p></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>Buy from the UCLA athletics tickets website. Tickets are sold out for individual basketball games, I believe. Even if there are extras at the game day, they are in the 300 level.</p></li>
<li><p>Lottery from CTO. You pay for the Den package, and you have the option for refund if you don't get in. Deadline was sometime in August, if I remember.</p></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>Right, but so there are no individual game tickets available for students who didn't get the lottery to buy?</li>
</ol>
<p>News about our cross town rival, they lost to measly Mercer(or whatever their name is). Hopefully we destroy them this season. OJ Mayo can kiss my ass :D..</p>
<p>Haha, mayonnaise lost to an unknown team</p>
