great night
It was a great night to be a Tar Heel, and there's not too many things I can be disappointed about, to say the least.

catch coming defensive forcing intensity key loss night playing tough
It was a tough night for Asheville to catch us, coming off that loss and playing the way we did. I really thought the whole key was our defensive intensity and forcing turnovers.
felt game impressive last night seen shooting team
Last night was about as impressive an opening-round game that I have ever seen a team play. I mean, I felt like they were shooting about 85 percent. They were guarding. They were doing everything.
game impressive last night seen team
Last night was about as impressive an opening-round game as I've ever seen a team play. They were so impressive last night, I was dumbfounded.
games team
We feel very fortunate, to say the least. First-round games are always difficult. If your team hasn't been through it, they have no idea how big it is.

chance far including kansas last lucky seen struggled
I've seen a lot of teams, including Kansas last year, go far after they struggled in their first games. You have to get by and get lucky sometimes. We have to play better Saturday. We have no hope, no chance if we don't play better Saturday.

impressive victory
It was about as impressive of an opening-round victory as I've seen.
amazing good guards guys heck leading though
I've never had that even though I've had two guards who've been the two leading scorers. I've always had other guys who can score. It's amazing what they've accomplished. They've had a heck of a good year.
ask believes charles coming crossing easily full good hitting running speed
The 'X' is usually the 'clear out' guy, ... Charles could easily jog, but he's hitting it full speed and running full speed coming back to the huddle. He doesn't ask for the ball. We've got a lot of crossing routes, but he doesn't say, 'Can I get an X cross?' I think he believes that good things come to those who wait.
lately nice played playing
Q's been playing much better lately and I told him he's got to play. I thought Q did some nice things for us. I think he really has played much better.
