Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC's 1982 championship
Posted Mar 21, 2020
Rapid Reactions in 1982 might have looked like this: What an incredible finish to UNC's first national championship since the undefeated 1957 team. How relieved are you to never have to hear about how Dean Smith can’t win the big one? The shot by Mike Jordan with 17 seconds remaining instantly becomes one of the biggest in Carolina history.
