Shot selection did in the Heels

Posted Jan 22, 2010
It’s no secret that the team that shoots better will typically win a basketball game, so it’s no surprise that in North Carolina’s 82-69 loss to Wake Forest on Wednesday the No. 24 Tar Heels shot a season-low 36.6 percent from the floor. What is surprising is that UNC was not just missing easy layups — it was also taking bad shots. “The quality of shots wasn’t real good,” UNC coach Roy Williams said. (Durham Herald-Sun)
