The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[IPC2]

Bulls earlier honored the 1995-1996 team in the franchise’s inaugural ring of honor class ( too bad jordan, pippen and rodman weren’t there) sad note, Jerry Krause’s widow cried as the fans booed when his late husband was introduced

(note: bulls legends jerry sloan, artis gilmore among others where also part of the class)

Krause might have been a bit of a dick, but he was a pretty good GM in the 90's. Made a lot of good moves to surround Jordan with the help he needed (Cartwright, Pippen, Grant, Rodman, Kerr, Kukoc, Paxson, Armstrong, Harper, etc.). He screwed up after the dynasty, though.

G​reat, Bulls fans are now in the news because of this crap.

The fans who booed were a disgrace. Bulls fans regularly booed Krause in the 90's too, but this was not the time.

Warriors assistant coach Dejan Melojevic of Serbia dies of heart attack

https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...ors-jazz-coach-medical-emergency/72256334007/

The native of Serbia joined the Warriors coaching staff in 2021 after head coaching coaching stints in Montenegro and Serbia. He played professionally in Europe, where was a three-time Adriatic Basketball Association MVP. He won a gold medal for Serbia and Montenegro at the 2001 Eurobasket. He has also served as an assistant coach for Serbia’s national team.

He also coached a young Nikola Jokic in Serbia, long before any saw Jokic as a two-time MVP who could lead a team to an NBA championship. He was instrumental in Jokic's development as a skilled big man.
