Three takeaways from Kentucky’s win over North Carolina in a basketball classic

There have been some really good ones over the years, going back to the Dean Smith vs. Adolph Rupp battles, to some NCAA Tournament games, to Anthony Davis’ block of Jon Henson’s shot that saved UK’s thrilling one-point win in 2011. Saturday, they played basketball the way you’re supposed to. (Lexington Herald-Leader)
