We hopped on a conference call earlier today featuring Kevin Love — who will be representing the Wolves at next Tuesday’s NBA draft lottery. We asked him, for fun, about Bill Simmons’ campaign to be the new Wolves GM. Love laughed and said “funny is not the word” for it and added it’s “interesting when his name is mentioned. He knows his stuff … [and] he writes a good column.”

Sounds like an endorsement! OK, not exactly.

Wolves beat writer Jerry Zgoda was also on the call for more serious subjects and has some of Love’s other thoughts — as well as the news that Randy Pfund has withdrawn from consideration — right here. Hey, by the time this thing is said and done, Simmons might be the last man standing.
