Jordan is a different beast. Jordan shot the ball at a 50% clip. Kobe shoots it at 45%. Jordan was a much more efficient player.

Taking into account FTs and 3pt extra worth, it's closer, but Jordan and LeBron are just better than Kobe.

TS%
Jordan: 56.9%
LeBron: 57.1%
Kobe: 55.5%

It doesn't seem like much on its face, but when you shoot as many shots as these guys do, that extra 1.5% makes a big difference over time.
