Tar Heels making unconventional the norm

Posted Nov 23, 2013
Erase for a minute everything you’re used to assuming about a North Carolina basketball team under coach Roy Williams. The No. 24 Tar Heels are not that team. This team can’t impose their pace and use their fast break to outrun teams. They can’t merely overpower an opponent on sheer talent. They’ll have to grind out wins much in the fashion of Saturday's 82-72 victory over Richmond. (ESPN.com)
