Why North Carolina botched its final possession vs. Duke

Posted Feb 18, 2016
It was total mismanagement of the final possession — and something that happened all too frequently for North Carolina in the second half. Instead of feeding Brice Johnson (or any post player) in the paint, the Tar Heel guards settled for jump shots, many of which didn't fall. Joel Berry, for instance, finished his night 2-for-12 from the field. (USA Today)
