Posted Nov 15, 2013
Roy Williams hopes his team looks a lot more like their start against Oakland than their finish as they prepare for Game 2 against Holy Cross on Friday at 8 p.m. The Tar Heels shot 74 percent en route to scoring 58 points against the Grizzlies in the season opener. They outscored Oakland 14-0 in fast-break points and 15-4 in points off turnovers. The second half reversed all their progress. (ESPN.com)
