Third-ranked North Carolina got another reminder of the importance of focus when Boston College -- which gave the Tar Heels their first loss of the season Sunday -- fell to Harvard, at home, on Wednesday. Afterward, "Coach came up and told us that one thing about college basketball, you need to be prepared every game you come out," Tar Heels senior Danny Green said. "On any given night, you can win or lose." Shouldn't the Tar Heels know that by now?
