Lucas: On The Defensive

Nowhere on UNC's scouting report did it suggest Stanford's Ryan Agarwal might score a career-high 20 points, or Jeremy Dent-Smith might score a Division I career-high 20 points, while Ebuka Okorie was pumping in 36 points. Put those players together and they were a remarkable 14-for-21 from three. It's hard to shoot those numbers on Pop-a-Shot. (GoHeels.com)

Lucas: UNC vs. Stanford Rapid Reactions

Blistering hot Stanford used a late 7-0 run and 16-for-28 three-point shooting to beat Carolina, 95-90.
