If Jordan scored the most yet his percentage wasn't that high, that means he missed more shots than the other superstars mentioned. I wish they had the ESPN stat +/-. That is an amazingly valuable stat that would settle the arguement.(If you haven't seen this stat, check espn full box score)

You're manipulating the data how you see fit. Jordan is the all time leader in PPG, the single most important stat in basketball. Jordan was the greatest. Shooting percentages aren't nearly as important as points scored.
