After a quick search, it looks like Game 2 of that series? The Kings won Game 1 and were up by 10 with 4 minutes left in Game 2...
Wolves went on a 16 - 1 run to close the game. I remember a few things from that series... I think both teams went on big runs late in games. But even though it was obviously a huge game... it just didn't stick in my memory like the others. Maybe because Game 7 is so memorable?
And former Wolves player, Anthony Peeler, tried to take Garnett out of Game 7 by throwing an elbow at him and instigating a fight in Game 6. Garnett didn't take the bait.
To this day, there are people who call Garnett "soft" for not retaliating. What? The MVP should taken himself out of a Game 7 for throwing a punch in that situation? No.
Yeah that was it. We would have been down 2-0 going to Sacto. It was a tremendous rally.

Yeah Game 2. Cassel saved our asses with a clutch 4th. Will always love him for that.
