You just can't say the top seeded people are going to win throughout this tournament. It hasn't happened through the conference season. UCLA is as vulnerable as anyone else, and that will make for an exciting Pac-10 Tournament.

Where we are right now, I'm going to try and get as many minutes as I can out of each starter.

We had a point where we cracked. When people start throwing dunks down, there's a point where they've created a competitive edge.
