Was there ever a point you felt like you might leave? Any superstar pitches to join forces? Reggie Miller: No. And if Michael Jordan ever would have called me and tried to sway me to come to Chicago, I would have told him to go f— himself! “I’ll be coming to see you on I-65 or whatever that highway is there. I’ll be down to see you.” I never came close to going anywhere else. Contemplating, or other teams sniffing around, like the Knicks, possibly. I already had a storied history against them, right? I couldn’t go there.

Earlier this summer, Damian Lillard joined LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Klay Thompson, Diana Taurasi and a host of other professional NBA and WNBA players, as well as the likes of Don Cheadle and Sonequa Martin-Green for the filming of Space Jam 2, the sequel/remake of the Michael Jordan vehicle, which was originally released in 1996. James takes the lead role this time, with Lillard presumable picking up one of the roles filled by Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing and Larry Johnson in the original.
It’s James Jordan’s name and son Michael Jordan’s fame that will bring audiences to IMDb TV’s “Moment of Truth,” but the docuseries has little to do with them. The five-part documentary, set to begin streaming Friday on the Amazon-owned website, is really about justice, incompetence, inconsistencies and allegations of corruption.
The focus of “Moment” is the judicial muck of North Carolina’s Robeson County, where the crime’s investigation and prosecution have a lot for which to answer, and the fate of Daniel Green, one of two men convicted in connection with the murder committed while they were teenagers. “The crime and the murder of James Jordan is really the gateway to a larger story that we’re telling in this series,” Matthew Perniciaro — a director, writer and producer of the documentary — said by phone Wednesday. “That larger story is focused on corruption in law enforcement and systemic racism in the criminal justice system.”
