Bulls Fans Will Miss Two Great Legends

Chicago sports fans were saddened following the deaths of 2 Bulls legends this Thursday.

Norm Van Lier, 61, was found unresponsive in his home Thursday afternoon and pronounced dead.

"Stormin' Norman" appeared in three All-Star games during his career with the Bulls in the 1970s. He stayed close to the team after his retirement, and was a popular sports broadcaster as well.



"Norm Van Lier was one of the all-time greats ever to put on a Chicago Bulls uniform," Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf in a statement. "Along with Jerry Sloan, he set a standard for Bulls defense and toughness which we will never forget and which we will always strive to replicate."

Johnny "Red" Kerr also died Thursday, after his battle with prostate cancer.
Kerr, the Chicago Bulls first head coach and died yesterday at age 76.
