Tough game #2 for the Timberpuppies. You can see from New Jersey's lineup, they were still entertaining thoughts of greatness. Indeed, the Nets were the reigning Eastern Conference Champs, having lost to the San Antonio Spurs 4-2 in the 2003 NBA Finals. Note that former Celtic Brian Scalabrine is coming off the bench for New Jersey, while current Celtic Jason Collins got the start at center. 32 minutes, 6 rebounds, 4 dimes, 2 steals, and 1 block.

Anyhoo, the 2003-04 Timberwolves have a ways to go before they earn some respect around the league during this particular campaign.
