Tar Heels learn lessons from Pittsburgh loss

Posted Mar 19, 2014
The Tar Heels' short stay in the ACC tournament had a funny way of getting their attention. The loss to Pittsburgh gave Carolina some unwanted free time over the weekend. It hit sophomore guard Marcus Paige when he went to the mall and happened to walk past television sets showing Duke still playing in the tournament. “I was like, ‘Geez, why am I at the mall right now? I need to be in Greensboro.’” (ESPN.com)
