I suppose all 3 have the potential to be the best player of all time. Neither are better than MJ and I agree that if you think they are, you probably never really watched Jordan anyway. Either that or you don't care to analyze him the right way(watching games and not ESPN) but prefer stats over everything.
Sorry to count you out but I thought 25 was a nice round number.

I hated Jordan but the guy is quite simply a notch above these guys, perhaps two.
And he didn't have to join up sit Magic Johnson to win, he just went out there and beat him in the Finals.

The only thing Kobe was more skilled than Jordan in was shooting. And that is just range. Jordan has him beat in shot selection and efficiency by a country mile.

If he had he would have been a superior player. LeBron? His peak play (08-09) has already surpassed anything Jordan ever did as a player. Now he just needs the longevity to surpass him overall.

Yeaaaaaahhh, Idk about that. Jordan wasn't the greatest shooter early on his career but by the 90's he was the deadliest mid-range shooter in the game. You may be able to make an argument about Kobe being a better long-range shooter, but that's probably b/c MJ didn't fall in love w/the 3 like Kobe has been prone to do throughout his career.
But I'll give you that one. Kobe is perhaps the better 3 point shooter.
MJ mid-range > all

Nowhere near the will - which (for me) is what separates MJ from all other players.

Foot-work, shooting ability, ball-handling, craftiness (hesitation moves, pump-fakes, ball-fakes, etc). Just a more skilled player.
