The Minnesota Timberwolves occupy the class of NBA teams that are not quite good enough to make the playoffs, yet not quite bad enough to score a top lottery pick.
T-Wolve fans' middling enthusiasm has forced management to come up with rather creative promotions to boost attendance.
For an Andrew Jackson, ladies can score:
- A ticket;
- A glass of beer, wine, or soda;
- The first season of HBO’s Girls on DVD;
- Two extra dollars to rub together for luck, wishing Kevin Love doesn't leave for the Lakers.
If there's a intersection between NBA and Lena Dunham fans, I don't see it. That's probably why the OKC Thunder never returned my job inquiry emails in 2011.
Adding to the theme of female empowerment, those Girls fans will be welcomed by the Fox Sports North Girls.
In the spirit of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," Rupert Murdoch applied his strategy of "attractive ladies reporting the news" to his regional sports networks. Kaylin, Angie, and Kendall are the fan's connection to their Minnesota teams.
Kendall and Angie have the pleasure to report on a healthy Kevin Love. He's picked up where he left off last season, averaging a double-double.
In her bio, Kendall answered that "flowers in one hand, tickets to the game in the other," are more romantic than chocolate.
T-Wolves fans would probably agree.
