Preview: North Carolina vs. Oklahoma
Posted Mar 29, 2009
With a victory, UNC will earn a record 18th trip to the Final Four. Oklahoma will create problems behind national player of the year Blake Griffin, a double-double machine, and standout freshman Willie Warren, a projected top 10 pick in the NBA draft. But the Tar Heels will counter with impressive depth, led by ACC Player of the Year Ty Lawson, Tyler Hansbrough and Wayne Ellington.
