The cards probably represent the team roster before the 1994 off-season.
Some remarks:
– Probably because they went to Finals in 94, all players on the cards were in the 94-95 roster as they tried to keep the team intact (which was very rare in other teams).
– Traded for Doug Christie during 94 off season. Drafted Monty Williams and Charlie Ward in the 94 draft. Doc Rivers was released mid-season.
– This team was still very good and had the 3rd seed in the East. Despite being the victim of Reggie Miller’s “8 points in 9 seconds” in Game 1, Knicks and Pacers played till Game 7 in the 2nd round, but lost by 2 with Ewing missing the finger roll at the buzzer.
