The only regrettable thing about replaying this Jerry Krause stuff is he's not around anymore to see/hear it.

I'm imagining LeBron sitting back watching this doc on his idol, and then seeing his phone blow up with thousands of people telling him sucks. Lol. People dumb.

That was the part my wife realized at the end. Was he's not here to defeat himself. Which kind of sucks. But I mean really. Who says a coach who has lead you to 5 championship is coaching his final year with the Bulls. But doesn't have a reason. Your better off saying "No comment. I can't comment on the future. I'm focused on this year".... Why create all this weird ****?

Looking forward to MJ going up against the Bad Boys in Ep. 3. And I don't mean Mike Lowrey.

MJ wants to administer pain.

The deep, visceral hatred we Bulls fans had for those Pistons was an actual, tangible thing.

I'd love to see it. Because I spent a lot of time tracking players. I don't think I ever heard any injury concerns about injury for him. Just to refresh myself on Oden. He broke his hand. Missed a bunch of games. He was beasting future guys. https://youtu.be/DnXNHBBvOZ8 And he killed those future NBA guys. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

Not gonna keep it going off topic but Webster was more of a SG, Outlaw certainly wasn't prohibiting them from drafting Durant and Rudy overseas was a guard as well.

R.I.P. Jerry Krause.

But, if anyone out there deserves getting dirt kicked on his grave, it's Jerry Krause. The guy was a meanspirited shrew with a serious Napoleon-type complex. It's impossible to tell the story of MJ's Bulls without mentioning its #1 enemy. And that #1 enemy wasn't LA, Detroit, NY, MIA, or Utah. It was personality clashes and being undermined by their own front office.

It was a two way street. As a metro Detroiter, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls introduced younger me to what irrational hatred was all about. Didn't get over that until Jordan's return in '95.
