Duke's Rivers-like robbery leaves Tar Heels empty-handed and exposed

Duke showed enough courtesy to leave North Carolina with three unused timeouts at its disposal, one noteworthy regret to take forward and countless questions to answer. Why didn't coach Roy Williams have the Tar Heels call a timeout on the final play of his team's 74-73 loss Wednesday night? (Fayetteville Observer)
