Despite the win, Roy Williams said UNC's performance was 'not the kind of game we want to play.'
Posted Nov 13, 2018
It was good enough for a win, but it wasn’t good enough for Roy Williams. North Carolina shot 49 percent, outrebounded Stanford, had more assists, free throws and fewer turnovers, but the Tar Heels’ 90-72 victory wasn’t close to good enough for the Hall of Fame coach. Williams wants his team to play to a standard, not to a final score, and on Monday night, they didn’t do it.
