The Nets go for three straight wins and six of their last seven Saturday in Minneapolis. The Nets are allowing 87.3 ppg in the last six games. Their offense has been clicking along as well, with the Big Three alternating big games. The Wolves are in the middle of the pack out West, but have played well lately, winning seven out of the last 10. Kevin Garnett is averaging 22.3 ppg, 12.6 rpg and 4.4 apg. Marcus Williams is still out with strep throat, ex-Net Eddie Griffin is suspended for violating NBA drug policies, and Richard Jefferson is upset that rumors about off-court issues are taking away from the team's recent success.
