Don't do Jeff like that, breh.He's a shytty coach, but he was getting 20ppg for the Suns before they traded him for Charles Barkley.

Growing up in LA, my whole family was Lakers fans.Some of my earliest memories is of my uncle going "AWWWW SHYT:damn:" every time Jeff released a jump shot.


He used to kill the Lakers in the playoffs.J was automatic

Yeah, but I'm saying tho... without John Stocton padding dudes stats its mad dudes on the Jazz that wouldn't even have been in the nba... lol
Okay, maybe I shyt on Jeff Hornazeck a lil too hard... he was just the first one I remembered.

Put it like this, without Stockton aint no way they put Jeff Hornaseck's ass in NBA Jam. :dead:

Stockton put a lot of dudes on with those assists.
Half these bums could never have made their own play or got open shots otherwise.
He just gets you the ball 3 feet from the basket regardless of anything elser going on at the time on the court. Its ridiculous. If I was on the Jazz I would of had 8 points a game in the nba, and I don't even play on a rec center league.
:ohhh:

Stockton is the best point guard I ever saw. Magic is a better player... probably... but not a better example of a point guard
.
Stockton just gets shyt cause hes a cac and he wears shorts that a teen girl would wear to 1970's summer camp. :snoop:

All-time steals leader... John Stockton
All-time assists leader... John Stockton

To put it in perspective... He has so many fkn assists that Karl Malone is #2 alltime in scoring... over Kobe, Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain :dead:

If Kwame Brown was on the Utah Jazz in the 90s he'd average 16 points per game just from being on the same squad as Stockton.
There are dudes like Jeff Hornezack that they basically found at a homeless shelter and put in a Jazz jersey with no training, and John Stockton was getting them like 8 points a game off the top.

:mjlol:

The way Steph Curry shuts the PGs of today down with his handles and shooting...:whew:
You try crossovers and shyt for 48 minutes vs Stockton you are just gonna end up with a shytload of turnovers vs the alltime steals leader of the nba.

And if your gameplan is to get into a one on one back and forth shootout from 3 vs John Stockton... :dead:
Its just not a sound strategy... even for Steph. :huhldup:

Sounds like you never actually saw Stockton play if you think he had a chance in hell of guarding Steph.:mjlol:

The Stockton love is confusing to me. He was never a top five player in the NBA and simply wasn't a dominant force like Magic, Oscar and Curry. Not a better player than peak Penny either. Longevity is his greatest attribute

Nah... sounds like you never saw him play if you think he couldn't.
He has more steals than all-time great lockdown defenders like Jordan & Pippen for a reason.

Players are judged by 5 categories: points, assists, rebounds, blocks, and steals.

John Stockton is the all-time leader in 2 of those 5 categories.
Thats not an accident.

Unlike curry, Stockton guarded his man. Curry would be trying to guard jeff or some shyt getting lit up by him.

Most nba players you can't guard them 1 on 1, Stockton would need help on curry, while curry would need help on jeff.

Stockton wouldn't run from the matchup

Steph has too little longevity to be 4th best PG all-time but I fully expect him to reach that level when it's all said and done.

1. Magic
2. Robertson
3. CP3
4. Nash
5. Stockton
6. Jason Kidd
7. Frazier
7. Payton
8. Thomas
9. Curry
10. Billups

At this rate, it's just a matter of time before Curry passes Isiah, Payton, Frazier and Kidd to me.

I think Stockton deserves to be there but he got luck with that pick and roll with Malone.

Zeke is one of the most overrated players in league history

No longevity, inefficient and a poor defender. Has only one season leading a top offense. His legendary status is because he won alot but the problem with that is that those squads were defensive oriented teams and Isiah had nothing to do with that.

I wouldn't put him above Magic and Robertson but he's clearly still ahead of Curry career wise. Curry obviously had the better peak and will bridge that gap even further this season and will obviously pass him all-time with a few more seasons under his belt.

Peak is great, I value that alot. Probably more than others generally do but when someone can put together the amount of quality seasons that Stockton did you have to account for it. If anything I find Stockton underrated.

Who other than Magic, Robertson, CP3 and Nash can you put above him career wise? I much rather have 19 seasons of Stockton than 13 seasons of Isiah Thomas. It's not even debatable to me.
