Bobby Frasor was shooting 0-for-50 and Roy Williams was laughing. Normally the North Carolina coach would not exactly be thrilled. Of course, normally Frasor would never get to miss 50 -- after about 12, he'd spend the next week laundering jockstraps. But Wednesday was different. Carolina is in the NCAA tournament's Sweet 16. More than 10,000 people showed up to watch the Tar Heels and three other teams practice at Bobcats Arena.
