Lucas: Rapid Reactions

1. Welcome back, Marcus Paige? It looked like that might be the case during Saturday's 89-62 romp over Boston College. Paige hit three three-pointers and finished with 12 points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals. Just as important, he always looked completely in the flow of the game. It goes without saying the Tar Heels will need a vintage Paige as they enter a very difficult February.

2. Watching Joel Berry, you get the feeling he could do more if the Tar Heels really needed him to. There are times when the Tar Heels need some offense--like a late shot clock situation in the second half--and Berry simply decides he's going to score.
