Heels' challenge the same


The departure of Travis and from UNC's basketball team rearranges the personnel mix, but it doesn't change the areas that have to improve. The Tar Heels still will enter next season needing to get better in three specific areas: shooting, defense and ball-handling. Even in what probably will be a weaker ACC, the Tar Heels again will struggle to contend if they continue to shoot 40 percent on field goals and 65 percent on free throws against league opponents.
