quote:

On Thursday's episode of ESPN's "The Jump," Rachel Nichols asked Brian Windhorst if he believes LeBron will "actively recruit" some of the elite free agents this summer.

"Historically, LeBron has sort of been involved but not all the way involved, because he doesn’t necessarily want to be known as the guy who couldn’t close the deal," Windhorst said. "He doesn’t want it to all to be on him.

"LeBron has perfected the art of influencing deals without taking ownership of them. Of course he will reach out to free agents. Of course he will try. The ability for him to close deals -- that’s different."

Now, to the reason you are reading this article:

"And in all honesty, he’s been recruiting players to come and try to be in 'Space Jam' with him this summer, and he hasn’t been able to close some of those deals," Windhorst revealed. "Some of the top guys he wants to come and be with him in the movie … 'You put me in the movie where you’re the star, I’m gonna be the one you're dunking on.' "

Hey Mr. Windhorst, you care to share the names of any of those "top guys?"

"I’m not gonna get aggregated," he told Nichols. "I am not gonna say right now. But let’s just say it’s the top players."

Filming and production for "Space Jam 2" is scheduled to start this summer. The movie is slated to be in theaters in July 2021.

Maybe no one wants to smell Lebron breath all day filming.

The more information that comes out about the game, the more of a pussy he seems like

Maybe because these guys think Space Jam is MJs deal and it's weird with Lebron.

I was six when the first one came out and love it to this day.

I don’t understand why people give a crap that they are making a sequel/rebooting with the best player of this generation. A lot of the kids today never saw Jordan play and if they did it was with the Wizards.

Now I will admit I think Lebron isn’t the biggest draw as a human being. He isn’t very likeable to a decent portion of the population, myself included at this point. and that’s coming from someone who was a huge fan of his for a good portion of his career.

He's a writer. He doesn't want his soundbite to get turned into clickbait by a bunch of news aggregator sites and then him not get any of the clicks. So he's saving the juiciest info for his own article.

I really don't understand the hate LeBron gets, though I guess MJ would have gotten a similar amount of hate had he come up in the social media generation.

Jonah Hill would be ideal for the role of Brian Windhorst if they ever made a movie about the relationship between Lebron and Brian.

Well that actually makes sense.

I took it as him not wanting to “aggregate” a monstars squad

Because they are 30 year old fat weirdos that think the new movie is targeted for them
