MJ took way more high percentage shots.
Very possible.
While I'm here, MJ played less than 1,100 games in his career. (regular season)
Kobe's played in over 1,200 with the first 2 years being off the bench of course.
MJ has over 1,000 more shots than Kobe does, playing in fewer games than Kobe.
Kobe of course, known as THEE ultimate "chucker" and MJ, nobody EVER says that about him. Nobody.
Imagine, just IMAGINE, if Kobe played in less games, and had a thousand more shots than MJ, IMAGINE the **** they would say then.
But MJ, naw he's cool. He can shoot it, he's MJ. Kobe, he's a ball hog.
But I digress....
