Stockton was a true sportsman. He wanted to win and above all else he wanted his teammates to be successful.
So true.. he had no ego or boastful pride. Stockton was VERY DEDICATED to his faith. If not a b ball player he probably would have spent his life in the ministry. Putting others above himself was how he was deep down in his soul. He had no want or need for the limelight. His nickname was the boyscout. Other players would tease him because he didn't party.. didn't have I ne Night stands with women.. he would rather be at church
All time leader in assists and steals by a mile... His records would likely never be broken.
And The Goat 30 seasons 😁 he want all the records
But still underrated some how
Honestly assists was the most important stat to me. I knew that my athleticism wasn't in par with how good my high school teammates were. So everyday after practice, from 7th grade all the way to graduation, i practiced my passing. Now i wasn't a horrible shooter, and could drive to the basket fairly well, but compared to my team and the competition i might as well have been a lifetime G league player (which isn't a jab at guys who have been). But the one thing i had over everyone was my ability to get the ball to anyone anywhere on the court. And John Stockton is the man id have to thank for that
19 years only missing 22 games is unbelievable. I would love to see your guys reaction to the famous "The Dunk" John Starks on MJ.
Starks played one season in utah and tried to get Stockton benched! Starks could throw the oop to AK while Stockton couldn’t
As a 90's teen from Utah, Stockton was the MAN! I think we just took for granted that he would always be there. Grew up watching greatness and now in my 40's, the fast break 3-point game is sooooo boring by comparison. NBA needs more post-ups, drives in the paint, show-stopping fast break dunks.
I do the same thing comparing things but a true fan that loves the game of basketball shouldn't compare. Old NBA vs new NBA, you should love it all.
It's like you know my life...lol. Same story hahaha
Career assists:
1. John Stockton - 15,806
2. Jason Kidd - 12, 091
Career steals:
1. John Stockton - 3,265
2. Jason Kidd - 2,684
Stockton set 2 records that will never be broken. His career FG was 51%.
The man could play.
"Stockton held the NBA career record for assists and steals with 15,806 and 3,265 respectively." Hard worker student of the game, ability to control a game.
Loved your video gentlemen!
You didn't mention he swept the Lakers four strait in the 98 wcf, a team with Shaq, Eddie Jones, Nick Van Exel, and Kobe Bryant, a team that was expected by a lot of people to win the championship, to go all the way, got swept by the Jazz, they couldn't handle the brilliance of John Stockton.
I would say John Stockton is more like Jason Kidd than Steve Nash because of his defense although he is more of a shooter like Nash. So in a sense, John Stockton is the best of both worlds. He can defend like Kidd, shoot like Nash and pass like both of these guys whilst being durable like a nail.
And let's not forget he's clutch unlike Chris Paul, that 33 bpm heart rate is doing him wonders.
I was I was into basketball in the early 90s for me Jordan and Stockton stood out on the rest
19 years with the same team, all-time leader in assists and steals, co-MVP in the 1993 All-Star game, and a two-time Olympic gold medalist. A lot of people put too much on Championships but to me, while a championship would've been nice, the other things I mentioned prove that John Stockton was the best point guard in the last decades of the 20th century and into the 21st. Jordan was a talented player, I will give him that, but the Bulls relied on him too much to get those 6 championships.
Stockton made assists a sexy stat. I used to love watching Stockton to Malone.. man that was fun.
9 Times an NBA player had 1,000+ assists in a season. 1 Time by Isiah Thomas, 1 Time by Kevin Johnson, and 7 Times by John Stockton in 7 season in a row. From 87-88 to 95-96 season he never had less than 1,011 Assists in a season. That is just INSANE!!!
Them dudes said he had a Malone to pass to.... John would've made any big man shine... To me it was the other way around, Malone wouldn't have scored the points he did without John. Several hall of famers who were bigs openly admitted they were envious of Malone having Stockton as a teammate.
I've never heard about how low Stockton's heart rate was. Obviously, that means that nothing made him nervous. I've seen the size of his hands at the old NBA store in NYC. I'm 6-1 as well and his hands were probably 30%+ larger than mine. Above all, Stockton was an extreme competitor with an off the charts bball IQ. For a small white guy from yesteryear, the closest comparison I can think of is Mark Price. He was great too.
His resting heart rate is a true story. And also if you look he never broke a sweat
Stockton 19 years, all time assists, games, steals
He reminded me of pistol Pete. John had what we call "soft hands" .. an almost delicate yet precise way of handling the ball that would throw defenders off.. almost like his hands were ninjas.. if ya get what I mean
Yeah cp has just over 10000 ast. Stockton is never gonna be topped. You’d have to be incredibly durable and consistent till your 40.
Stockton and malone is one of the greatest pairs in nba history. Brothers and they WERE THE TEAM for almost 15 years. Stockton was so fast and agile that no one could catch him bringing the ball down court.. he'd then pass it to malone waiting in the paint.. and Carl "the mail man" malone is probably.the physically stongest guy to ever play. He wasnt as tall as shaq.. but in prime, Malone was built like freaking lou ferigno.. guy could bench 500 lbs.. no one could stop his inside drive. He was like a cannon ball rolling through.. damn i miss those guys
His assists were what made him so hard to guard.
Watching a Jazz game back then was just listening to the announcers go "Stockton to Malone... Stockton to Malone" the whole time.
I've always said there's a few point guards: Magic and Curry, that are better PLAYERS than Stockton, but Stockton was the best PG
there was 3 reasons that made stockton underrated first his teammate, you can mostly said that malone was the only " great player" in his team, second his playstyle was very " basic" but refined to a point where a simple coil could be better that a diamond and 3rd his body and personality to never come in the spotlight! He was just doing his job then returned to his familly! but listen to any great player that had played against him they would all said mostly the same thing " he was a demon on the court with the look and atitude of an accountant!" it's was stocktons was my favorite player end that i liked rodman, they are not the most " flashy player and they are mostly good on their field but in dire situation they was the ones you can always count on to be at their best in their field (for rodman it's defence some peoples called him the "energiser bunny"!!
Portland was his bad day at the office team, the Blazers eliminated him four times in the post season, from the Drexler days to the wallace days, the Blazers knew how to play Malone and Stockton better than any other team for some reason.
🏀 John Stockton made everyone who he played with better and more effective, and that's not even debatable.
Gary Payton said for him, Stockton was harder to guard than MJ
Basketball in the 80s way more exciting than today game is boring today all u see is 3s no post up game not real basketball
Check this out: ALL TIME ASSISTS
1 John Stockton 15,806
2 Jason Kidd 12,091

My team = 1 - Stockton, 2 - Jordan, 3 - Bird, 4 - Durant, 5 - Hakeem.
I have almost the same team as yours with Tim Duncan at power forward.
@@dysfunctional4912 I think your right about Duncan.
@@brianclevenger5521 But I'm glad that people mention John Stockton as their starting point guard also, he's a very underappreciated player at times, while he deserves to be mentioned as one of the greatest point guards to ever play, but certain basketball fans will "bury" him (along with Karl Malone) due to the lack of championships, which is unfair.
@@dysfunctional4912 Stockton, Thomas, Nash and Kidd were my favorites to analyze. Magic may have been the greatest, but I never considered him a pure #1.
One of the 75 all time greatest players in the history of the NBA but dumping the ball to Malone because that was what was expected cost them championships according to Isaiah Thomas. They lost many playoff games by single digits where a Stockton 3 or a 2 plus would have made the difference.
Jason kid would have to lead the league in assists for 4 more seasons or more to catch Stockton. Think about that.
Stockton 600 ahead in steals alltime and 3500 ahead of number 2 Jason kidd in assists
Stockton very underrated
he was pretty damn good..
when you play 2k and you cant broke his record it just proves how good you are
Wonder if John turned the heat on yet?
Stockton, 19 seasons, 22 games missed.
lebron James, 19 seasons, and how many games missed due to injury or load management? Doesnt seem like the same accomplishment.
Let be honest, its much harder for bigger players to remain healthy
Stockton longevity was amazing but he was a 175 pound guy he could take it longer
@@Motorata661 lebron has missed over 140 games in his career..
Kareem Abdul Jabbar missed 80 games during HIS 20 year career.. and neither Kareem, Malone nor Stockton, took defensive plays off to CONSERVE themselves, EVEN at the tail end of their careers.. and before you say Lebron DOESNT do that, i'll post a quick video
th-cam.com/video/_ZlvjFqb5kE/w-d-xo.html
ppl swear lebron gets UNFAIRLY hated on. he DOES, BUT there IS MERIT to it. ive seen REAL IRON MEN athletes play.. REAL DURABLE athletes.. Lebron is not one.
@@Motorata661 so I guess Lebron's "durability" pales in comparison to Kareem and ESPECIALLY Karl Malone.. they played hard ALL THE TIME AND FOR A LONG TIME..
@@Motorata661 142 games.. thats almost 2 seasons.. and how many defensive plays has he taken off? too many to quantify.. phew.. are we done being honest? oh wait, let's throw some love.. despite my low opinion of Lebron's game, I STILL put him FOURTH all time, ahead of Magic but BEHIND, Jordan, Bird and Kareem. kobe 6th..
@@Motorata661 damn, Karl Malone is the TRUE beast.. 18 seasons, playing extremely physical basketball, and only missing 10 games? Damn shame he aint win a ring with stockton.. damn shame.
He averaged 16.8 points 14.2 assists 2.8 steals 3.5 rebounds for 4 straight years. Shooting 54% compare that to nashs 2 mvp seasons and nashs stats those years aren't as good.
Don't laugh atheletic vs hi iq and toughness. Even a black ameican in nba cant do that in his time and in these time.
Of course he's not getting caught in assists. A person would have to average 10 assists per game over 18 seasons while playing 80 games a season. Not going to happen. Lol
He had the ball in game 6 against the Bulls and turned the ball over. If he was so good he would have drove to the basket and tried to score or pick up the foul. The Jazz were winning 86-85 and Mister assist choked. 😏
No, Malone turned it over. Stockton passed it to Malone in the post, and then MJ blindsided Malone and knocked the ball away.
Sexy girl watching Stockton Malone I watched a few others love the Seattle's the bulls were awesome blazers were cool Celtics bird hard to beat but my all-time favorite still stocked him alone I do not care what anyone else says and never be a combo like it or individually they are both just f****** outstanding players top tier some of the best
