Thelma Krause receives outpouring of support after Bulls Ring of Honor incident
I talked to her at length today and she is in a remarkably good place because of the overwhelming support she has received today from people all around the league around the franchise Etc so uh you know the words that she gave to me was I’ve had so much support that I
Can’t help but focus on the positive not the negative and sometimes good things come from Bad instances and this was a bad instance and the good thing that can come from this is the over correction that you know people are going to have to realize that Jerry kuss was really
Good at his job that’s why he’s in the N Smith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame so you can boo him if you want you can disagree with how the dynasty ended Etc but in terms of you know his accomplishments and the way he built teams there’s no disputing that and so
Uh I just wanted to convey that to the viewers because we could we could all learn a lot from the way she conducted herself throughout this experience and just talking to her today was an empowering moment for myself individually as well
K.C. Johnson joined Bulls Pregame Live to report on the messages of appreciation Thelma Krause received after her late husband Jerry Krause was booed by fans at the Friday’s Ring of Honor ceremony

Oh my goodness, Thank God, Mrs. Krause is ok, my heart shattered watching her suffer those awful boos. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Mrs.Krause absolutely deserves the support. Very classless and shameful
Booooooo boooooo booooo 😂😂😂
She’s filthy rich. Nothing to worry about just laugh all the way to the bank.
Shame on Chicago
Bulls fans should be better than that. Unfortunately that was not the case.
"You can boo him if you want" Evidently not.
I boo her for life weak people
Saw the ceremony, heard some boos, but somehow I think she'll be OK, don't let the drunken few that booed represent Chicago fans, the real fans cheer, and are thankful
….. booooooooo Jerry Krause literally ruined a dynasty that had a double 3 peat because of his ego ….. BOOOOOOOOO
Jerry Krause did it to himself and his family… He stuck his middle finger up at the Chicago fans and decided to break up the dynasty. He knew that nobody wanted it… except him and his ego to build a winning team without MJ. To this day, I remember that stupid man and his petty ego and how he screwed the fans and the players… You don’t take away something historic.. He was a Petty, egotistical, little fat man and deserved every boo in that building. He did it to himself and his family and never cared at all about it.
Yes I do feel bad for her, but let's not act like Krause was some hero and didn't deserve the boo's. He literally was the reason the bulls at their height broke up cause he thought himself more important than the GOAT. And your telling me the boo's aren't justified???
Booooooo!
Fuck those who booed!
I think people are booing, so they think, on behalf of Michael Jordan. It was MJ who publicly expressed his disdain for Krause. It was unfortunate
Shut up already
Good to hear 👍🏼 The people who were booing should be ashamed of themselves….
This is MJ’s fault
As a Bulls fan,, i'm ashamed how the fans reacted! That was a new low😢
Because shes fuking rich idgaf about that woman as much as she gives af about me
Never thought of Bulls fans being as bad as Philly fans. Shameful shit
Jerry built the greatest basketball ever ! He also destroyed the greatest team ever cause of his narcissistic personality disorder . That's unforgettable
The BULLS suck at bringing talent in POST Krauss era!
Be Better Arturas and Co!
He was a worm the players hated this guy
Booooo 😂😅
She doesn't have anything to do with it, Jerry is at peace, hope all fans should be happy and celebrate those six championship
This is mob mentality an its worse. What I would have loved to see is for someone to stand up, whether it was Phil, or Ron Harper, or heck, even one of the current Bulls, to get up and grab the microphone and tell everyone why they should be cheering the moment. Maybe take that moment away from the boo-birds and let the others have the opportunity to give a cheer and round of applause for this woman sitting there feeling crushed. No one stood up for Jerry (or his wife here) in that moment, I think that's a bit shameful too.
MJ the grub started this
This is music to my ears. When the crowd booed Jerry i thought WTF to myself. His era should be applauded. All he did was put together the most impressive run in NBA history. Come on Chicago
Animals in the stands
We're gonna boo him. Booed since the 90s n not gonna stop bc of the media.
I felt so bad for her. I'm glad people are reaching out to her, and that she's feeling better.
You could ( should?) boo… or not. As fans, we have the right to do the minimum at least. It is important to realize many widows grift off of the hard labor of their spouses. They take the earnings and pensions of the dead hubbys and live the life of Riley. Maybe even go to Poundtown with a toyboy, while slagging on the former Mr.'s dinero.
Chicago fans, and the city as a whole, are classless lowlifes.
Give a damn about her
So glad to hear this, bless you Thelma Krause and may your husband RIP.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
