Lucas: Smooth Moves

Posted Nov 22, 2008
A sellout crowd of 6,000 shoehorned into Santa Barbara's Thunderdome on Friday night expecting to see the North Carolina they've seen so often in highlights. You know that team: high-flying alley-oops, long-distance marksmanship, oh, and the national player of the year, Tyler Hansbrough. They saw the latter during Carolina's 84-67 win, as Hansbrough played for the first time this season and contributed 13 points and seven rebounds in just 25 minutes. (Tar Heel Blue)
