Muggsy Bogues wants to see Kobe, Curry in 'Space Jam 2'
LeBron James may be a reigning champion and perhaps the best player in the game right now, but that doesn't make him the best person to be cast in Michael Jordan's role in a potential "Space Jam" sequel - at least not according to someone from the original film.

Muggsy Bogues was among the NBA players in the movie whose hoop skills were stolen by the Monstars. Asked Tuesday who he'd like the see in "Space Jam 2," he went another route.
"I heard Michael say he would like to see Blake Griffin star as him, but I would've thought Kobe (Bryant) would kind of fit that mold more," Bogues said in a video shared by the Charlotte Observer.

"And you gotta have Stephen (Curry) in some kind of way. It's going to be hard to create that type of cast again."
Bogues also raved about the job Jordan and the supporting cast did, as well as R. Kelly's contribution to the soundtrack.
"I don't know if they could top that," he said.
Apparently, retired hoopers thinking their generation was the greatest applies off the court, too.
