Opinion by Greg Hansen : Top freshmen might beat all-conference team (70 clicks)
4. The league's MVP will be UCLA point guard Darren Collison, who has a good chance to be better than previous Bruin point guard stars Tyus Edney, Darrick Martin and Jordan Farmar. Collison's scoring percentage is up from 5.5 to 13.0, and his shooting percentage has improved from .402 to .593. He is dynamic. He is the player that makes the most difference in the league, although Washington's Hawes will be close.

UCLA Bruins Basketball: Progress Report (56 clicks)
Despite losing three starters from last year's team and possessing no seniors, the Bruins have displayed a level of cohesiveness normally found only on veteran clubs. Perhaps the fact that the sophomore and junior laden team is NCAA tournament battle-tested having played in six tournament games, including the championship final, has something to do with it.
