Rodman and Mullen to the hall

Dennis Rodman and Chris Mullen head the 2011 hall of fame class and are both well deserving of the honor. Rodman averaged 13.1 rebounds per game and was a two-time defensive player of the year. The former Detroit Pistons "bad boy", was known to make headlines off the court as much as he did on. His funky style of differing hair coloring and full body tattoos and piercings, made for an eccentric personality. His play on the court earned him a share of five NBA championships. Whether as a Piston, a San Antonio Spur or later as a member of the Chicago Bulls, Rodman brought ferocious defense and physical play that both earned the respect and ire of fellow players and teammates.

Chris Mullen's sharp shooting talents, took him from a hall of fame college career at St.Johns, to one now with the Golden State Warriors. Mullen, a five-time all star, was also recently enshrined to the hall as a member of the 1992 "Dream Team", which captured Olympic gold. Also joining Rodman and Mullen are Teresa Edwards, Artis Gilmore, Herb Magee, Arvydas Sabonis, Tom Sanders, Reece Tatum, Tara VanDerveer and Tex Winter.

On behalf of Blog or Bust News, congratulations on the honor, as it is well deserved for all!
