Harrison Barnes, Tar Heels fail to get offense going

Posted Mar 14, 2011
With less than six minutes left Sunday and top-seeded North Carolina trailing by 10, Tar Heels point guard Kendall Marshall found a rarely-open Harrison Barnes for a transition 3-point opportunity. When it missed, so did top-seed UNC’s opportunity for a third straight double-digit comeback in this ACC tournament, and its chance at a 10th straight victory. Duke blew out the Tar Heels 75-58 at Greensboro Coliseum. (Raleigh News & Observer)
