quick notes from saturday.

UCLA 81; Arizona 66.
Arizona head coach Lute Olson on UCLA, following a loss to the Bruins. from the Los Angeles Times.
"The thing that's impressive about them is that they compete on every second of every possession on both ends."

Pittsburgh 65, Washington 61.
tough break for the Dawgs. Spencer Hawes continues to impress with 12 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and three blocks.

Dwight Howard got jobbed in the dunk contest.
Two great dunks including getting the alley-oop placing a sticker of his smiling face high atop the backboard -- 12 feet, 6 inches according to the Jameer Nelson measurement -- then dunking.
meanwhile, this one will have to suffice.

"I mean, how do you defend against that play when the guy can just throw it up in the stratosphere?"
In two years, Dwight will be THE BEST PLAYER in the Association.
