Bulls honor late GM Jerry Krause with moment of silence

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bulls honored late general manager Jerry Krause with a moment of silence before their game against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night.

The executive who oversaw a dynasty that produced a pair of championship three-peats in the 1990s, Krause died on Tuesday. He was 77.

A Chicago native, Krause took over as GM in 1985 and surrounded Michael Jordan with the pieces to win six championships.
