Fallece Jerry Krause, El Arquitecto De Los Bulls De Jordan

... campeonatos en ocho años. Fue realmente el arquitecto de nuestros formidables equipos de los 90. Yo no estaría en el Salón de la Fama del Básquetbol de no haber sido por Jerry". Krause asumió como gerente de los Bulls en 1985 y fue responsable de rodear a Jordan con los jugadores que completaron dos tripletes seguidos de títulos en la década de los 90. También contrató a Phil Jackson para que fuera auxiliar de Doug Collins. Terminó despidiendo a Collins para darle las riendas a Jackson luego de alcanzar la final de la Conferencia del Este en 1989. El Heat necesita mejor defensa si quiere ir a playoffs. Adquirió a Scottie Pippen en un canje realizado el día del draft de 1987, en el que también seleccionó a Horace Grant. Ambos se convirtieron en los principales socios de Jordan en los potentes equipos. "Jerry fue una figura clave en la dinastía de los Bulls de ...

Elhunyt Jerry Krause, A Michael Jordan-féle Nagy Bulls Menedzsere

... Nem kis része volt abban is, hogy a Bullsnak sikerült megszereznie Scottie Pippent és Horace Grantet, a későbbi bajnokcsapat két oszlopát. Ez a Bulls három bajnoki címert nyert 1991 és 93 között. Aztán Jordan viszavonult. Jerry Krause (balról) és Jerry Reinsdorf, a Chicago Bulls tulajdonosa 1998 nyarán a United Centerben bejelentetik, hogy a csapat hatszoros bajnok edzője, Phil Jackson helyett Tim Floyd irányítja a Bullst. AFP-fotó/John Zich. 95-ben visszatért, és újjá kellett építeni a csapatot, itt megint Krause menedzseri kvalitásaira volt szükség: szerződtette a mindenhonnan kiutált, kezelhetetlennek tartott Dennis Rodmant, illetve korábban már megszerezte Ron Harpert és Tony Kukocot, így állt össze az újabb három bajnoki címig jutó második Jordan-Bulls. Krause-t sokan bírálták is azért, mert 1998-ban úgy döntött, hogy szétrobbantja a nagy csapatot: kapcsolata megromlott Phil Jackson edzővel, és a hatodik bajnoki címe után nem hosszabbította meg a szerződését, miután Jordan ismét visszavonult, Pippen pedig Houstonba ...

Honoring The Architect

... from Krause saying he could run the Bulls. Reinsdorf didn’t know anyone in basketball, anyway, though he had consulted Bill Bradley about the team. Reinsdorf wasn’t even sure who Krause was. He was told it’s that guy who pretty much never shuts up in those scouting meetings. But Krause said he’d been personnel director once for the Bulls, so Reinsdorf listened. And Krause outlined a strategy of defense and team play that to Reinsdorf, a basketball neophyte, sounded a lot like his favorite team, the early 1970 s New York Knicks. OK, he’d give him a chance. Yes, Reinsdorf and Krause inherited Jordan, but also a mess of a roster with rampant drug use and indifferent, if talented, players. Krause had a plan: OKP (our kind of people; you build with character and commitment) and addition by subtraction: You’d get better with fewer of these guys. It was a slow and painful process, especially for someone in so much of a hurry like Jordan, who walked into a title basically as soon as he got to ...

Rebuild Gave Me 'needed Jolt

... is to see general manager Rick Hahn and manager Rick Renteria win executive and manager of the year awards. That likely would happen only in the event of another title, which the Sox are far away from in their current rebuild mode. Hahn has wanted to rebuild for some time — it’s not Williams’ customary way of doing things — but Williams said Tuesday he’s not only on board but feels rejuvenated by it. “Oh, absolutely,” he said. “Me personally, I have not been this excited about the White Sox’ future in a long, long time.”. Ken Williams talks to reporters at Camelback Ranch Tuesday. Williams has kept a lower public profile than usual during camp, leaving Hahn to be the point man in the rebuild and the public face of it as well. Williams did venture out Tuesday to talk about the passing of Jerry ...

... the game turns quickly.". Toronto grabbed the lead for the first time on a turnaround jumper from De Rozan with 1:23 to play in overtime. Denzel Valentine missed a 3-point attempt on Chicago's next possession and Patrick Patterson had a tip-in layup to make it 119-115 Toronto with 44.7 seconds remaining. The Raptors lead the NBA with 18 comeback victories after trailing by 10-or-more points. WATCH: Robin Lopez, Serge Ibaka exchange punches in scuffle, both ejected. By #Bulls Talk March 21, 2017 7:51 PM. The Bulls are certainly playing with more fight these days. Both Robin Lopez and Serge Ibaka exchanged punches and were ejected from Tuesday's Bulls-Raptors game after a scuffle underneath the basket. The play happened late in the third quarter after Jimmy Butler made a 3-pointer that pushed the Bulls lead to 88-72. Lopez appeared to be pushed by De Mar De Rozan into Ibaka, who responded by giving a forearm shove to Lopez. Lopez didn't take too kindly to the play and began a shoving match with the Raptors forward. As the two were being broken up Lopez threw and missed a punch at Ibaka, who responded with a haymaker of his own. Both players likely will face ...

Numbers Adding Up For Gonzaga’s Defense

... in Spokane. (Dan Pelle / The Spokesman-Review). 3-pt. pct.: 33.0. PPG: 59.9. Mark Few isn’t a big fan of comparisons involving his current and past Gonzaga teams. He really doesn’t care for sweeping generalizations, particularly early-season ones. But it was inevitable Gonzaga’s coach would be asked if this was his best defensive team minutes after the Zags limited Saint Mary’s, one of the nation’s most efficient offenses, to 56 points on 37 percent shooting in Tuesday’s WCC tournament championship game. “It’s hard to just throw out best when you’ve been doing it 20 years,” Few began. He went on to call the Zags an “excellent defensive team,” describing their elite rim protection, bigger play-making guards and ability to follow scouting reports and make in-game coverage adjustments. The numbers – rudimentary and advanced analytics – support “excellent” and make a strong argument this is the best defensive squad since the program crashed the national scene with an Elite Eight run in 1999. The fourth-ranked Zags (32-1) are on pace to have the lowest ...

Bulls Dynasty Architect Krause Dies At 77

... he had been such a big part of building. Tim Floyd became the new coach, and the Bulls drafted Elton Brand No. 1 in 1999, but Chicago never won more than 30 games in a season before Krause retired from the Bulls in 2003. Despite the dramatic fall-off, during Krause's 18 seasons as Chicago's GM, the Bulls won more games (808) than any other Eastern Conference team, according to ESPN Stats & Information. In a statement, Michael Jordan said: "Jerry was a key figure in the Bulls' dynasty and meant so much to the Bulls, White Sox and City of Chicago." He added: "My heartfelt condolences go out to his wife, Thelma, his family and friends.". Jackson also weighed in. "The news of Jerry Krause's death is a sad day for the Chicago Bulls and the entire NBA community," he said. "He was a man determined to create a winning team in Chicago - his hometown. Jerry was known as 'The Sleuth' for his secrecy, but it was no secret that he built the dynasty in Chicago. We, who were part of his vision in that run, remember him today.". Current Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg also praised ...
