    'Dream Team' to be inducted into U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame

    The Dream Team has earned a spot in the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame.

    The star-studded team that featured Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Charles Barkley and won the gold medal in Barcelona headlines this year's class of 10 inductees. The class, which will be formally announced Wednesday morning, will be inducted Aug. 12 in Chicago.

    Joining the Dream Team are Michael Johnson, the only man to win gold in the 200 and 400 meters at the same Olympics; Picabo Street (skiing); Teresa Edwards (basketball); Mary T. Meagher (swimming); and Willye White (athletics). Skiier Sarah Will is the Paralympic inductee.

    Former USOC chairman Peter Ueberroth, gymnastics coach Abie Grossfeld and skier Andrea Mead-Lawrence also are being inducted.

    The hall is presented by Allstate.

    Still can't believe that Patrick Fracking Ewing was the starting center.

    "Chris Mullin" is the name that surprises me.

    Nah, Mullin was the real deal for about 5-6 years back then. Dude was averaging 25, 5 boards, 4 assists.

    Pippen was the one who hadn't really earned the right, and Isiah just got the most royal screwing of all time by Jordan.
