I know. It's frustrating as heck because when Henson gets it, he doesn't pass at all.

Finally Barnes gets the ball.

John Henson should not be allowed to take any shots beyond 8 feet.

Barnes draws the foul on the up-and-under.

The announcers are talking about Barnes limited creativity with the ball.

Wow, Dawkins really bit on the up-and-under by Barnes. Such a crafty moves by Barnes with the shot fake and head fake. This is why UNC needs to get the ball to Barnes down low.
