The PR Masters of 600 First Avenue

 A paragraph from today’s Tom Powers column says it all:

I’m also going to have to say that Hoiberg is out of
the loop, too. Granted, his comments about keeping Mayo came on a
crowded elevator. Asked if they were keeping him, he nodded and said:
"We’re keeping him."

Couple that with what Glen Taylor told Sid after the Wolves had selected Mayo:

"Our people thought that Mayo had far more upside than Love. And very
important was the fact that Fred [Hoiberg] played for Tim Floyd at Iowa
State, and we knew [USC coach] Floyd was going to give an honest
scouting report on Mayo."

The PR cluelessness that takes place at the Target Center never ceases to amaze me.
