Having watched The Last Dance and learnt more about some of the behind the scenes events after the ‘97 season I find it incredibly that Jerry Krause is still held in such high regard. Jerry wanted to break-up the team after the ‘97 season and only agreed to return Phil and MJ for one more season (MJ had said he would only play for Phil). Why is Krause not demonized more?
Even after it was demonstrably shown he was dead wrong to break up the ‘98 team (they won after all), he still keeps yapping that everyone was over the hill and about to collapse blah blah. See below.
Krause explains why Bulls’ dynasty unraveled, in his words
And infact he wanted to blow up the team even earlier and we might not have gotten the 3 peat. Reminds me of BB wanting to keep JG and we might have missed out on the 2016 and 2018 SBs.
And now BB the GM has been dead set on proving he can win without Brady and that sounds exactly like Krause. And Kraus’ rebuilding famously bombed and failed. He might as well have kept the team together for ‘99 as well and who knows. Winning Championships and SBs are HARD.
I just feel BB the GM is doomed to repeat the same mistakes Krause made.
