2010 Basketball Hall of Fame

Today the class of 2010 Basketball Hall of Fame was announced. There are a lot of deserving players in this years class. Here is the list of those to be inducted into the Hall of Fame

Jerry Buss, Cynthia Cooper, Bob Hurley Sr., Karl Malone, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Johnson, Gus Johnson and Maciel “Ubiratan” Pereira. Also two teams will be inducted ans those two are 1960 USA Men’s Olympic team and the 1992 USA Basketball “Dream Team.”

Aa regards to Malone, and Pippen all I can say is, it’s about time. They both had great careers. Malone often known as Mailman is probably one of the greatest players to never win a championship. Pippen won 6 championships as Michael Jordan’s right hand man and is part of the one of the greatest teams to ever step on to the court.

I also think it’s awesome that Olympic teams are being inducted ecspecially the “Dream Team.” I was only seven years old when they won the gold but I have a lot of fond memories of watching them play. They dominated those Olympics. Their roster included:

David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, Larry Bird, Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan, Clyde Drexler, Karl Malone, John Stockton, Chris Mullin, Charles Barkley, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Jr., and Christian Laettner.

Congratulations to all this years Hall of Fame Inductees for the class of 2010. Everyone on the list is well deserving of the honor.
