Minnesota Timberwolves News

It has been a slow Minnesota Timberwolves news week. One of my customers who knows I have a Timberwolves blog asked me what my thoughts were for next season and I ho-hum told him, “more of the same.” I am dreading the thought that it may be a direct repeat of this past season. He has Minnesota Timberwolves season tickets and was thinking of just giving them up. I don’t blame him, but I know he is a mega NBA basketball fan and won’t be bailing on his hometown team…unlike me. I think I only went to about 4 games last season, that’s not very many for a Timberwolves fan who takes the time to write a Timberwolves blog! Anyway, check back next week (Wed or Thurs, I just can’t commit to either day – therapy could help) for new and improved Minnesota Timberwolves news!

IS KEVIN GARNETT STAYING IN MINNESOTA?

If you had asked me this question a couple of weeks ago, I would have said that there was no chance that he would be a member of the Minnesota Timberwolves next year. The Timberwolves sent out "early bird" invoices that gave season ticket holders a discount if they renewed their season tickets by the end of this season. I was sure that the Timberwolves were suckering season ticket holders into paying for their seats now before the off season when they were planning on trading KG. They know that without Kevin Garnett, there would be a mass exodus of Timberwolves Season Ticket Holders.

My opinion changed when I found out that Kevin Garnett just bought a new multi million dollar house on Prior Lake. That tells me that he is here to stay. Maybe instead of buying a new home, KG should cut his salary in half so that the Timberwolves can afford a better supporting cast.
