<p><strong>Writer: Elizabeth McGarr<br />Post Time: Friday, 7:11 p.m.</strong></p><p>Never mind that UCLA coach <strong>Ben Howland</strong> could be aging faster because 11 of his team's last 15 games have been decided by 10 points or fewer.<strong> Kevin Love</strong>, the second-youngest player on the team, doesn't know how many more close ones he can handle. "I'm getting a few gray hairs now," the freshman joked on Friday. "I'm 19 going on 67-years-old right now." </p><p>Love and his teammates may have enjoyed a pro-UCLA crowd last night but the center said he's seen fans and opposing players "showing no love to Kevin Love" and that a lot people just don't like the Bruins. "They're calling us the Duke of the West Coast," he said. "We're like the Spartans out there in [the movie] <em>300</em>. We're going against everybody." And how does Love feel about being compared to Duke? "Aw, that's an insult man," he said with feigned disgust.</p>
