CHARLOTTE – If Friday night was the end of North Carolina’s basketball season, at least the Tar Heels made it interesting, entertaining, and fun.

It wasn’t that way for much of the campaign. Truth be told, as challenging as the Heels were to watch for fans, that went for media, too.

This scribe has said many times that a poorly played game and a great one aren’t all that different from a coverage standpoint. The job is the job no matter what.
