That might have hurt the T-Wolves team, where Cassell
and Sprewell couldn't be counted on to consistently
take and make the last shot (though Cassell got
injured during the playoffs, which might have changed
things during the 2003 season).  On this team, we have
a stone cold killer named Paul Pierce.  KG's late game
disappearance, a rap warranted or not, will not matter
this year.
