Here’s the latest from the Wolves’ PR department, a video promoting Kevin Love for an All-Star bid. This video was sent as a DVD, along with a bottle of Numb#rs cologne, to every Western Conference coach in the hopes that they’ll write down Love’s name as an All-Star reserve. Also included in the package is a list of the various numbers that Kevin Love has put up this year.
The Wolves tried something similar with Big Al a while back using GPS devices, but Jefferson ultimately failed to get the nod. I think this campaign has a slightly better chance of succeeding as Love is a lot more marketable than Big Alco and he has put up stats this season the likes of which haven’t been seen for a loooooooong time. Still if there’s one number that will keep K. Love out of the ASG, it’s “10”. That’s the current number of Wolves’ victories.
Overall, a pretty solid effort by the Wolves PR department. My only critique is that the guy doing the voice over at the end sounds like a creepy sex predator. I guess Ted Williams wasn’t available…
