Lucas: Rapid Reactions

1. What a luxury it is to have a team where it's a different standout on every night. Last week, Brice Johnson did a little bit of everything. This week, it was Kennedy Meeks with a 10-of-16, 23-point and six rebound (five offensive) performance. Meeks played 30 strong minutes and although he and the Tar Heel big men gave up too many offensive boards, Meeks put in an equal amount of effort on Carolina's offensive glass. Even though it seemed like NCSU was scoring on second chances virtually every possession, the Tar Heels actually held a 24-23 lead in second chance points.
