Minnesota Timberwolves Defeat Cleveland Cavaliers by 34 Points

The Cleveland Cavaliers were playing in front of the world on Thursday night against the Miami Heat. They fell flat on their faces against the Heat and were essentially lifeless. Some guy named LeBron James scored 38 points. On Saturday night, the Minnesota Timberwolves did not let them get up. The T'wolves trounced the Cavaliers by 34 points in the game and were ahead as much as 40 points. Here's what happened:

-The Wolves scored 37 points in the opening quarter, marking the highest scoring quarter of the season. Minnesota’s 73 points in the first half were also a season-high. The 34-point margin of victory was the fourth largest in franchise history.
-Kevin Love scored 28 points and had 19 rebounds

-Wesley Johnson had 20 points

-Darko Milicic had 14 points and 9 rebounds

-The Timberwolves made 18 three-pointers, a franchise record

-Oh, by the way, that all happened without Michael Beasley playing (out because of a sprained ankle)

Kevin Love Erupts for 31 Points and 31 Rebounds

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Love erupted for 31 points and 31 rebounds on Friday night against the New York Knicks at the Target Center. It was the first time an NBA player had that stat line since 1982 when Moses Malone accomplished it. It was an electric crowd at the Target Center with an announced crowd of 15,000 to 16,000. Michael Beasley scored 35 points, after scoring 42 the game before against the Sacramento Kings. Rookie Wesley Johnson continues to impress with 15 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 blocks against the Knicks. They will be getting Jonny Flynn and Martell Webster back from injury shortly and that will help the team as well. Purchase your Minnesota Timberwolves tickets today!
