The Cleveland Cavaliers put their winning ways to the test on this Saturday as they battle it out with the Minnesota Timberwolves of the Western Conference.

Alas, this cannot happen against a Cavs team that is respectable from deep and has connected on 36% of their three-point attempts. Scoring 121 points on 52% shooting against Phoenix, the Wolves are starting to feel it with their shot. In fact, the next closest team isn’t even within a point of that margin as the Cavs have been putting the clamps down on their prey. Of course, everyone was aware of what the former Louisville product was capable of during his days in Utah, but it seems that “Spida” has taken his game to even greater heights. As it stands, the Cavs boast one of the top records out east at 27-16 and are beginning to prove to the NBA community that they are a legitimate contender. Most recently, the Wolves have reeled off five wins in their previous six games and seem to be turning a corner at the most perfect of times.
