Bran has protected his percentages and been allowed to barrel through defenders his entire career; the media and the NBA made him because they need stars to carry the league for monetary purposes.

The ONLY reason he ever shot a decent percentage from the outside is because defenders give him 5 feet of air space; they know the stiff arm is coming if they get near him. (And he's allow to stiff-arm because the NBA has to protect their investment)

Kobe is by far the superior scorer and player. He's a product of hard work and skill; not bending rules and media creation.

Bran knows even with the bending of the rules and media creation, he isn't good enough to win championships; that's why he left his own team two separate times in his prime to form two all-star teams; something that's unprecedented and never been an option for true competitors.

I wouldn't quite agree on LeBron and his percentages. Prett much every player protects their percentages to some extent, but he has shown on multiple occasions to not care so much. For instance (this is just one example, not gonna write an essay) LeBron had that run of 5 straight games of at least 30+ points on 60%+ shooting in 2013 and ESPN was (typically) going crazy. Then in game #6 against the Thunder, he had like 39 points on 60% with the game in the bag, but then launched an unnecessary 3 to drop to 59% shooting and just laughed it off.
Overall I can understand your assessment, although I don't necessarily agree with all of it
