The Rivalry: Duke at UNC
Posted Feb 6, 2008
If Ty Lawson can't play, Roy Williams doesn't plan to slow the Tar Heels' usual fast-paced approach for backup Quentin Thomas. "We're going to play the way we've always played," Williams said. The most important subplot in this game is its effect on who gets the No. 1 seed for the East Regional in Charlotte. North Carolina is a game behind Duke in the ACC standings and can't afford to lose on its home floor.
