The Golden State Warriors will look back on the 2012-13 Season and say that was the season we arrived and it was also the season where Jarrett Jack and Carl Landry held us together when things fell apart in games.

Behind 23 points and 8 helpers from GSW's PG Jarrett Jack and 19 points and 8 rebounds from PF Carl Landry (pictured left) the Warriors hang on to beat the T'Wolves 100-99 in Target Center on Sunday.  In a turnover-filled affair the Warriors win the Rebound Margin and was +18 with the Money Ball and that was the difference in the 1 point spread.

The T'Wolves get a tremendous effort from PF Derrick Williams with 23 points and 12 rebounds but that wasn't nearly enough. Both teams combine for 39 My Bad's with GSW committing 22 of the 39.   The T'Wolves had all their Starters in double-figures as Pekovic added 21 points and Ricky Rubio chipped in with 16 points and 11 helpers. The Warriors are poised to make a move at the Grizz but can they catch the Pacific leading Clips?

 Wade County has his explosion back as he and King James continue to play Tag Team on the Opposition. The Heat withstand a nice effort from Cavs Rookie 2G Dion Waiters (26 points) and 19 points from SF CJ Miles to clip the Cavs in the end 109-105. King James led all scorers with 28 points.

What the Heat have been able to do a little bit before the All-Star Break is win the rebounding Battle and that is a Huge Stat going into March and April Basketball in the logo. They are also being rumored into the Greg Oden Sweepstakes so go figure. The Cavs also get 17 points and 5 helpers from All-Star Kyrie Irving.

Don't look now but the Miami Heat with all those documented Early struggles in the 2012-13 Season are now 40-14 and only some 2.5 games off the Spurs for the NBA's Best Record now how about those Granny Smith's.
