The Minnesota Lynx today announced the team has hired Jim Petersen as an assistant coach. Petersen will join assistant coaches Jennifer Gillom and Ed Prohofsky on head coach Don Zierden's staff. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not disclosed.


And how do the attendance numbers break out? Check the numbers...

Six additional teams have seen positive attendance changes: Denver Nuggets, Houston Rockets, Milwaukee Bucks, Minnesota Timberwolves(only +33 per game), New Jersey Nets and Washington Wizards.


Jonah Ballow/Timberwolves site talks to Randy Foye and Coach Wittman about tomorrow's game against the Sixers.


When you are playing in games to the end or even overtime, you are doing something right. Look at the differential in points for and against for the Wolves (an average of -5.0 points that includes one bad loss and a win) and you see they have been in seven of the eight games they have lost. Other teams with one win on the season are losing by an average of 10 and 14 points per game. Too many losses by that margin might be unwatchable.

Then again, when you lose all those close games, you are not snake bit; clearly you are doing something wrong if you don’t finish on top once in awhile.


Fun Fact: Since the start of last season, Kevin Garnett has 34 double-doubles. Al Jefferson has 61.

Fun Fact 2: Since the start of last season, Kevin Garnett’s Celtics have won 75 games. Al Jefferson’s Wolves have won 23.
