Duke lost 'it' and a big game at UNC

Posted Feb 21, 2014
There are lots of reasons why Duke blew an 11-point lead in the final 15 minutes. One reason was the zone Roy Williams threw at the Blue Devils down the stretch, which contributed to Duke going more than nine minutes without a field goal while missing 13 straight shots. Another reason was Marcus Paige, who took eight shots in the second half, made five and finished with 13 points in the final 19 minutes. (CBS Sports)
