ACC Tournament Champions
UNC is the reigning back-to-back ACC Tournament Champion. Each year that the Heels win, getting UNC basketball tickets gets more difficult and you have to move fast. The Heels are almost always competitive for the national title, and this year is no exception.
One of the best ways to see the Heels is to go after UNC basketball tickets to 'lesser' games, in other words, games against opponents who aren't Top 25, or national powerhouses, or ACC schools. The best games are the hardest to get, but you can get great unc basketball tickets to games like UNC Asheville, where you can sit close enough to see the action without binoculars.

The UNC Tar Heels Basketball Tickets
Even though every year is a year in which the North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball team can win the national championship, fans of the Tar Heels have an extra ingredient to make them feel confident this season. Last season's team made it to the Final Four after only losing three games all season, and all five starters returned this season, a year older and a year wiser.
Add in the fact that several prized recruits also have joined the UNC roster this season, and you can see why fans are rushing to buy UNC basketball tickets in record numbers. This season could be a yearlong party, and fans are hoping it will culminate with another championship banner in March.
The central player on this year's UNC roster is All-American power forward Tyler Hansbrough, a player whose motor runs like he's Ray Lewis and who plays at full tilt regardless of the score or opponent. For every talented player who coaches lament about lack of effort, that effort lives and breathes in Hansbrough, who has become a UNC legend in his three previous seasons at UNC. Another reason why unc basketball tickets are more in demand, people want to see the legendary "Psycho T" before he graduates to the NBA and walks off into Carolina Blue Heaven, alongside Dean Smith, Micheal Jordan, Vince Carter and James Worthy. It's hard to imagine a new player coming along as Hansbrough has to carve out his own piece of UNC legend, but he's done it, and he's set the ACC on fire from the moment he's stepped on the court. There's only one thing Tyler needs to make the perfect college career: a national championship.
The second player who will drive UNC's run toward a national title is the blisteringly fast Tywon Lawson, a junior burner who might be one of the fastest point guards ever to play the game. After UNC fans gathered up UNC basketball tickets to see former speedster Raymond Felton, it's hard to imagine that another point guard would come along only a year later who was even faster. The most jaw dropping aspect of Lawson's game isn't even his phenomenal speed, it's the fact that he can score layup after layup, while running at full speed and being defended. It's a skill he has developed almost flawlessly to overcome his height.
On most teams, Wayne Ellington might be the dominant player, but on UNC's roster, he's just another lethal scorer who can burn a team for twenty points on any given night. Known primarily for his outside shooting, Ellington can create his own shot and can actually score in a variety of ways. He's worked on his slashing moves and has hops for a shooting guard.
The X factor on this team is Danny Green, Mr. Do-Everything, who can score from deep, mid range, grabs rebounds, finishes alley oops and dishes assists on the fast break. It's hard to figure out if Danny Green has a real shot at the pros, but the player he's most reminiscent of is probably former UNC "glue guy" George Lynch, who led a long NBA career after helping UNC get a title in 1993.
This year's UNC basketball tickets may have the same nostalgia attached to them.
