Conference basketball game at Stanford this afternoon, the Bruins don’t have to look far. Total turnovers:23. The Bruins had started sloppy but found a rhythm -- for a while, at least --

and trailed by only a point, 34-33, at halftime. UCLA needed to be careful with the ball and stop Stanford guard JEREMY GREEN, who had raced to 17 points in the first 20 minutes with

remarkable outside shooting, but that was easier said than done. Green opened the second half with a pair of three-pointers to help stake his team to a six-point lead. From there, the Bruins

made several runs but kept shooting themselves in the foot with miscues as the gap widened. Green ended up with a career-high 30 points and UCLA ended up with the loss. LANDRY FIELDS

finished with 16 points and seven rebounds for the Cardinal (8-7, 2-1 in Pac-10 play), who snapped a six-game losing streak in the series. JACK TROTTER added 10 points and JARRETT MANN

dished out eight assists. NIKOLA DRAGOVIC scored 13 points and MICHAEL ROLL had 12 for UCLA, which came into the game averaging 15.3 turnovers. TYLER HONEYCUTT grabbed eight rebounds for the

Bruins (7-9, 2-2), who held a 30-25 advantage on the boards. -- David Wharton
