Regarding the All-Star game...No, Magic Johnson didn't "deserve" to be there. But it is a game all about entertaining the fans. The fans loved it. So who cares?

As for Magic being on the decline at that point...yes, he absolutely was. But I'm not sure why that should've kept him off the Dream Team. A number of those players were on the decline by that point. I think he still led the team in assists during the Olympics. And let's not forget that in Magic's 1995-96 comeback I think he averaged like 15 points, 7 assists and 6 boards off the bench. He was still a more than serviceable basketball player.

Clyde has always been a world-class douche. I'd expect nothing less from him at this point.
