These Aren't the Same T-Wolves

The Minnesota Timberwolves are in town, and for Wally Szczerbiak and Joe Smith, it's more the uniform than the team they will be facing that brings back memories. Both of course played in the twin cities...but for Joe, none of the players he played with are still with the team...

For Wally, only 3 guys are still with the team from his most recent season there, 2 years ago - Rashad McCants, Mark Madsen and Marco Jaric. Still, this will only be Wally's 4th game against the Wolves since he was sent to Boston in the Ricky Davis deal...

For Joe, it's just his 6th lifetime game against the Wolves and he's spent more time in a Minnesota uniform than any where else...

Speaking of former T-Wolves, looks like Sam Cassell will wind up in Boston, reunited with Kevin Garnett. Wally Szczerbiak played with "Sam I am" for two years, including their run to the Western Conference finals under Flip Saunders in '04...

See you tonight on FSN...
