Motivation to beat Stanford

| | Comments (0) |

UCLA still has a shot to secure the top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament with a win today against Stanford in the Pac-10 Tournament title game, especially if North Carolina loses in the ACC Tournament. But the Bruins already appear to have the No. 1 seed in the West region wrapped up, so what is the real motivation?
"We just don't want to lose,'' UCLA center Kevin Love said. "That's just the overall theme. Being such a competitive team, we're playing cards in the locker room, we're playing video games after the game, nobody ever wants to lose. That's the biggest thing on this team.
"We're so competitive no matter what it is. We're trying to go out there and win. We don't want anymore losses the rest of the season. We want to be cutting the nets down (today), and also six games after that."
