Why did Kraus hate Phil Jackson so much? He tried to get rid of Phil and said 98 was his final year no matter what. Jordan and others said they would leave if Phil didn't come back. First of all as a GM how do you even think about getting rid of a coach that has won you 6 championships. Second as the owner, how do you even think about keeping a GM that is going to break apart one of the greatest dynasties that have ever been in sports? Maybe I've missed it in the documentary, but I haven't heard why Kraus and Jackson didn't get along.
Don't let this documentary fool you. Jerry Reinsdorf broke up the Bulls. No GM has the power to break up that dynasty. This doc is throwing Krause under the bus and repeatedly backing over him because they players didn't like him. Reinsdorf broke up the Bulls. I'm not defending Krause but Reinsdorf broke up the Bulls.
