His shot selection was also poor some of the time, but mostly he just didn't care much about his percentages.

    You dont believe that, do you?

    You know, Basketball Reference now makes it possible to check half court shots/full court heaves, so you can check up on your lies yourself.

    LeBron's also taken a similar amount in the final 5 seconds of the shot clock.

    Just stop spreading myths. Cant have that shit, young kids read on here and you'll influence them with lies.

    Jordan had one of the best J's in the league. OP just trolling by taking it from his name.

    When you have one of the best Midrange shots and fadeaways the league has ever seen, lead the NBA in PER for playoff careers... you really don't have to rely on a 3 point shot.

    You can have the 3pt %, I'll take the 6/6.

    I do.

    I'm not talking about half court shots. End of quarter threes and a lot more often, end of the shotclock threes. He took 2-3 such shots post 2005. Rarely making them.

    Because he's routinely given 5+ feet of space to shoot and he refuses to take low percentage shots to end quarters or before the shot clock ends.

    Enjoy 2/7, loser.

    half court/full court shots are a pretty clear indicator of that..

    I remember seing specifically that stat you need somewhere, and for now, all you have is my word, that Kobe on average did not attempt more end of quarter/shot clock attempts than LeBron...
