Most underrated player of all time
you're probably right. i was a rodman/bulls fan, and yea i knew he was a passing-'god', yet i could never have imagined that he also has the all time steals record! or such stats:
(taken from some1 with a dumb username)
John Stockton is the last NBA player to record 1,000 or more assists in a season, way back in 95. There have only been nine 1,000 assists in a season, seven by Stockton. Chris Paul is the active leader in career assists. He trails Stockton by 7,098 assists for #1. If he plays for 7 more years and averages 1,000 assists a season he still would not get to #1.
@Fau Q That's why he is underrated...people nowadays just don't know.
@Fau Q Fine...he's not as well known as he should be...is that better? And Michael will never be underrated or not well known because he's Michael Jordan...the GOAT...Nobody will ever be saying that about MJ...
@Fau QAlso... You're
And idiots
As a Utahn, I always love when people give love to John Stockton. He deserves it. The day his records are beaten, is the day when we discover a phenomenal new player.
Any player that breaks his assists record will be half dead when they cross the finish line 20 years after their career starts, they'll hardly be new then ha
My thoughts exactly 😂😂😂
It will never be beaten
Stockton broke all time assists record at 9,522. Then extended it to 15,883
In his prime 8 years, compared to those other greats, he led in 3 of 4 categories. Astounding.
Except they forgot to include rebounds for obvious reasons. Stockton was great but hes clearly not better than Magic lol
@@brianwilliams5662 I didn't say he was. Reading comprehension is key.
@@markbrinton6790 LOL!!! The internet is priiceless. Did you forget to notice the word THEY in my first post. Idiot lol
@@brianwilliams5662 hey nimrod, your "they" only applies to your first sentence. In fact, your statement should have been stand-alone. Not a reply to me. See how that works? Oh, and priceless has 1 i, not 2.
@@markbrinton6790 LOL!!!!! Dude your IQ is literally below 70
I grew up in Utah and watched him almost all the time on local TV. He was so consistent! He was rarely hurt and he played the right way! Him and Mailman had some of the best work ethic! He wasn't a diva one bit like some of todays players.
Actually he was hurt a lot but he played through it. Maybe the toughest guy that ever played the game.
He wasn't a diva, but he certainly wasn't a nice guy, he refused to sign autographs for fans.
Isn't Stockton the all-time leader in assists and steals in the NBA?
Yep, 2 more records that will never be broken
I didn’t watch the whole video, so I didn’t know if it was mentioned or not.
By a considerable distance too
Untouchable records.
And every talks about everything else.
Gary Payton once said John Stockton is the toughest player to ever guard (tougher than MJ)
Because he never get into trash talk with Payton.
Gary hates MJ STILL. Actions speak louder than words
Makes sense, kinda like how Tim Duncan is hard to defend because players don't know how they will approach his calm demeanor.
@Hal Jordan ok ? Jordan just crushed everybody in the 90's . .
@@parkerxjr and still its easier to guards 1 jordan than 1 stockton that can make everyone score
@@ianbellen6212 tim Duncan is a 3 time finals mvp . Very different from stockton
9:20
"I never thought of him as a pass first point guard. I thought of him as a guy who took the best opportunity all the time."
That is the key to becoming a great passer. You have to be a threat yourself to draw attention and create space for your teammates. Don't try to make great passes - force the opponent out of position, and your passes will look great.
Smashing! Too bad you're not a current PG or better yet a current Coach!
Not that they'd understand or even listen to you as a coach, unless you handed em a wad of cash pfffflt
Facts. Stockton was lethal quick. Could get to the rim on anyone. Even MJ. His shot was more than dangerous
Also recall that his fame was disrespected in Barcelona LOL, other Dream Team members had mobs of people following them around, John and his wife freely strolled around with nobody having a clue who he was haha
Utah didnt get much national air time
Plus he just looks like a nornal spaniard guy, not reason to be follow around unlike the giant black men that people where not use at all in spain in 1992, even if they were not big into nba 😂
That's a blessing. I'm sure mark price didn't turn many heads either
The other players were jealous that he was able to do that
I don't know how that's disrespectful...a 5'10" white guy in the middle of Barcelona is hardly a spectacle... Especially next to a 6'8" black guy
My favorite player to watch as a teenager growing up in Utah. Such a quiet, classy guy who really knew how to play that position. I wonder if we will ever see someone like him again. I sure miss watching him play.
Barkley said it best. He’s the “Perfect Point Guard” he knew when to take his shots as well. And he worked on his long range game and improved significantly every year. If I started a powerhouse legends team rn. I’d pick Stockton over Magic. Not because I love Stockton more than Magic. But Stockton is the kind of player that will not blow you away with mind blowing stats, although he has proved he can score among other things, but he’s gonna give you his averages 13, 10 and 2. And it will NEVER dip lower than that. It will always be those stats day in and day out. And he might even exceed it because he can. And as we saw, All-time in Assists and steal by a considerable margin and yet always overlooked. Love Stockton, for me, he’s the best Pure Point Guard that has ever played.
Exactly. People can't believe me when I say it. But here is what I say to them? You're All Time Starting Five isn't necessarily the same thing as your GOAT list. (And you could pick all centers for your 1-5 on that list, right?) Even if you consider Magic to be a better overall player than Stockton, there are still more reasons that not for picking John over him. Because almost anybody's All-Time team is gonna have guys like, MJ or Kobe at their 2, Bird, Barkley, Dr. J at their 3, Malone, Duncan, McHale, at their 4, and Kareem, Wilt, Olajuwan at their 5. So being that our teams are going to be loaded with scorers, what the hell would we want (or need) a 6'9" PG? (who kind of depends on getting away with a lot of carrying?) And with that large of a bounce, a more proper-sized PG (like Stockton) would easily steal the ball from him. Hey, we have to assume that our All-Time teams won't be playing against slouches, right? (I mean, otherwise, what's the point?) But it all comes down to Stockton being the best ever at distributing the ball, always making the right play or pass for the team, and all the while having no ego about any of it! (God knows there would be enough with our four other guys. lol).
Stockton has 3265 steals in his career-Jason Kidd is second with 2684,Jordan third with 2514.Among active players today,Chris Paul is 9th with 2122.For him to tie he’d have to average 163.28 steals a year for the next 7 years
He is the greatest pg. His assist and steals records will never be touched and thats a fact.
@Nicholas Pagano dusagree : best assists average ever on a season . Clutch player . Excellent on both sides of the court . More efficient scorer than kidd. . Facts .
Facts, but besides his records: freaking great defender, efficient shooter close to average 50-40-90ish figures, a dog in defense And Led By example. No Athletic? I see footage of this bloke cutting defenses like butter. Only haters would not consider Him An all Timer, and in today's Game? Hmmm
respect the legendary best pure point guard ever JHONNY STOCK!!! he would have back to back chips if Mike wasnt born...
Boils my blood when i see people leave Stockton off of their Top 5 GOAT PG lists.
@@jrsmith1998 just shows that those who don't consider him great, they don't know basketball.
Realize this, my friends. One player on the dream team owns an all time record in the five basketball statistical categories. Actually one player on that team holds two of them: steals and assists. The other three statistical categories are held by non dream team members.
Kareem: all time points
Olajuwon: all time blocks
Wilt: all time rebounds
Stockton: all time assists
Stockton: all time steals
And that bum has no rings
Embodiment of The Perfect Player.
One of a kind, & it couldn’t happen to a better human being.
This was awesome. I remember the bulls facing the jazz and Stockton causing headaches 😂.
When Mark Jackson was Stockton's backup, class was in session.
If someone double team by MJ and Pippen, and he still can dribble and assist like business as usual, then i know he must be a hall of famer.
John Stockton was a coach's dream at both ends of the court. He shied away from glamour and headlines and wanted just one thing, to win.
HE was tough....it's like fighting an old boxer with skills and toughness
Rocky 6 .
John Stockton is #1 all-time in steals and assists by a MILE. That speaks for itself. Dude was a baller.
John Wooden said that Stockton was the only player he would pay to see play. That says something incredible about Stockton's basketball IQ and fundamentals. Unfortunately, so many fans are seduced by flash and high ball-hogging scoring that they ignore the greatness of not only Stockton, but many others as well.
Stockton's weakness:. Too unselfish. Loved those Jazz teams.
I really appreciate that you did this video so people can be reminded or possibly gain new perspective. You really did the man proud here and he certainly deserves it - what a cerebral-spectacular player. Thanks!
His assist record might be one the most unbreakable records in professional american sports
Him and Malone deserve a title but they just happen to play in the same era as MJ.
supratrd900 watch a Utah Jazz game and all you will hear is Stockton to Malone, Stockton to Malone!
Life isn't fair, you get what you deserve
Johnnie Stockton deserves a title. Not the mailman. Johnny Stockton in his prime had one weakness. He didn't shoot enough. Johnny Stockton was the real super star of the Jazz, not Malone. Malone was a product of Stockton excellence. Stockton needed a real Sidekick. The Mailman sucked in the finals. When everything was on the line, the mailman never delivered. Johnnie Stockton with Shaq would have been a great duo or Stockton with David Robinson or a Stockton/Barkley
The jazz were robbed in 1998 .
@@alainverse6126 Not robbed it would've been a game 7 if Howard's 3 counted but doesn't take away the fact the Jazz had no answer for MJ. He just dominate and that's the cold hard fact. Don't be delusional. The Bulls would've taken game 7. This same Jazz team couldn't even beat the same Bulls a season ago before 1998. Sloan coach team just struggles against a Phil coach team.
He’s underrated
For most of his career he was the second best player on a small market playoff contender
Still he had made the most of his career
He played all 82 games in 16 of his 19 seasons with Utah
He had the most assists in a season his first season as a starting point guard
He also has the most assists and steals in league history
He was also one of the original players on the 92 Dream Team 🇺🇸 that took home the Olympic gold medal 🥇
I would argue that he was never the second best player on that team. Malone needed him more than he needed Malone.
Charon58 He was the anchor of that team for sure. Not to mention, his ability to play the passing lanes, afforded Sloan the ability to stack the paint. Which he routinely did. Hence why Utah was a monster on the glass.
I played PG through highschool, Stockton was simply It, the Guy, the standard. reading This hatred amazes me, I bet these guys never played ball in their lives, only video games. He is the definition of a PG, and on today's Game we would see more scoring from this beast. All timer
Don’t think JS is underrated. He’s pretty respected by anyone who knows basketball
He still is. Most people who think they know basketball or only watch post 2000s still are quick to put him around #5 as all time pg's. Its really sad.
I'd put Stockton at #3 all time behind Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson.
I think it's silly to say his disrespected, as some of the comments might. People often argue he's better than Isiah, Frazier, and Kidd. Still, top 5, I disagree with video, moderately.
@@joshuashamai2876 He's #4 to me: Magic, Robertson, Isiah, Stockton.
And those kind of people aren't majority. So he really comes as underrated. For anyone who doubts his greatness, there's always many of the greatest players ever and their opinion on Stockton. Beside I. Thomas :D, not many of them don't put him as the greatest point guard ever.
one should notice instantly the curse of handles and over dribbling in the nba these days..stockton compared to these guys cant even handle the ball yet he leads in steals and it is very hard to get ripped from the ball..maximum efficiency with minimum effort..this is best bb..larry bird was a true master of efficiency as well
But he COULD handle the ball, he just didn't need to take extra dribbles. Same with Bird as you mentioned. It's not lack of handles, but rather lack of giving a shit about flash. Every dribble he took had a purpose behind it.
@@williamkoscielniak820 Geniuses are lazy.
I've watched John Stockton for years. One thing I noticed is that his passes aren't just on target, but he passes to the absolute best place where his teammate can make a play. He never made his teammate bend too much, reach too much, or go off balance. Every pass was exactly where it was needed to be used. That, to me, is the most useful part of a point guard. Steve Nash came closest to that skill. Then Magic Johnson.
I wouldn't even look Nash's way if Stockton was on the table
1. He was on the Dream Team. The famous clip from the documentary where a fan in a Dream Team t-shirt starts talking to Stockton and not even realizing she's standing next to one of the players shows the discrepancy between casual fans and the players themselves. The guys he played with all know how great he was. ua-cam.com/video/6iBhNppSBeE/v-deo.html
2. Gary Payton, a great defender, says Stockton was harder to guard than Jordan. ua-cam.com/video/LJCwyh0fDGw/v-deo.html There are plenty of player interviews on UA-cam where other great players laud Stockton's play. He had and has the respect of his peers, and he knows how great he was and how hard he worked.
3. John Stockton is the real honey badger: John Stockton don't care. He is the ultimate old-school cool, Steve McQueen of the NBA. It's enough for him, which makes him even cooler. Nothing wrong with pointing this out to the young fans now, but you'll have to be like Stockton himself: don't expect any reward for it.
One thing you don't want to sleep on: in the first half of his career, he was quiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick
He was always quick. Had a deadly first step.
Anyone who really knows basketball does not UNDERESTIMATE Stockton
Good video, that 8 year prime stat comparison is eye opening. Good job man. Stockton is the greatest, he was so clutching too, hit a lot of game winning buzzer beaters, including against the Bulls and Jordan.
John Wooden's favorite player and the greatest point guard of all time. 'Nuf said.
When you go up against john stockton, its not 1v1, its you vs the entire utah jazz
John Stockton is the greatest point-guard ever. And I would say the greatest basketball player ever pound-for-pound. He was a David among tons of Goliaths. And anyone who never gives up is the best ever and that's what makes anyone great, including Stockton, is getting back up when you get knocked down.
He literally played against Giants!!! I also believe he played against tougher players and they have today.. there were better players back then they are today..
@@gotonamelastname9517 100% agree!
He is not the greatest PG ever. He isn’t even top 3-4 PGs ever.
Stockton literally has more first round exits, than he has conference finals appearances.
Not trying to discredit Stockton, but he is not the player you are all claiming him to be.
The offense ran in Utah, was predicated on a pass first point guard running pick and roll. His assists numbers are bound to be high, if their offense revolves around him throwing passes of the P&R to Malone.
@@twistifyyy you know nothing about basketball then if you don't think Stockton is top five for point guards
@@twistifyyy you can't name anyone better. Trying to tear Stockton down because he ran the offense better than anyone? That's just dumb.
Love this series man.. brings me a tremendous amount of nostalgia when you cover some of these legendary/forgotten players from those days. Really appreciate your efforts.
Absolutely my favorite player of all time
Love this Clip Bro! John was a savage! And one of the hardest workers in the NBA.
A player with the greatest anticipation while playing under control at the same time which enabled him to excel as a complete player and set unbreakable records.
Always enjoyed watching Stockton play, selfless, team-focused, tough as nails, great awareness... Personally, he'd be my first pick for the 1 spot...always
5:37 He's especially disrespected whenever Isiah's in the conversation. Stockton fans would point out his All-NBA selections, PER, assists titles, steals titles, etc... while Isiah fans would mention the championships, Finals MVP, 40+ point performances against the Jazz, Karl Malone being a great scorer for those assists, etc...
Yep yep, but the 40 that stood out the most to me is the night Malone dropped 40 on Isiahs face..with that beautiful elbow drop. 40 stitches
I'm really enjoying your channels. Thanks for making this great video on John Stockton. I have a lot of respect for you to recognize true greatness where others can't see it.
You know, I used to hate Stockton for the longest time since I grew up as a Bulls fan and disliked the fundamental, "boring" kind of game the Jazz played. But when looking at his stats and what he did with what I consider a low quality supporting cast (minus Malone), it's pretty impressive. I'd even go so far as to put Stockton on my all-time starting 5/best pg of all-time too. Great shot, best passer and stealer by a long shot, and super tough by all accounts. You can't go wrong with a superbly well-rounded game like that, even if it's not flashy or whatever.
Well put,well said,will pass your channel info to some who appreciate real talk,thank you!
John Stockton. The Einstein of basketball. "He was playing chess while the others were playing checkers." That quote says it all.
John Stockton is the all-time leader in points accounted for (points + points from assists) in NBA history, almost 2,000 ahead of Kareem
The time Steve Nash had back to back MVP seasons.
John Stockton had better stats across the board including shooting percentage, assist, steals, points in 8-9 straight seasons.
John Stockton doesn't get his credit because he was in the same draft as Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan was the face of the League, rightfully so. The NBA was at an all time lowest ratings before Jordan came in. They was trying to go international and they knew Advertising Michael Jordan was the only way they could do that...
And it worked.
Stockton is one of the reason that made MJ what he was. The grit and defensive challenge he gave Jordan was a drive that pushed flight23 to his greatness...and them with it
And I always thought that Stockton was the real leader of the Jazz those years, not Malone... The Media always focuses on Karl Malone, don't get me wrong he is actually one of the best power forwards who played in the NBA, but he didn't have the assassin instinct that Stockton had it... That's why I consider him as not just the leader of the Jazz those years, but also one of the best point guards and the pure point guard you can watch and have the pleasure that played this game.
I've been thinking bout him and how good he was too, I'm glad you made this video. The brotha deserve a lot more respect for his game on and off the court.
If numbers matter, assists and steals, then Stockton is the GOAT.
When brain and basketball match in one single guy.
Jeff Hornacek was his stunt double
😂😂😂😂
Back in the 90's,watching NBA games on the tv gives a die hard fan small option to see a replay except when he gets to the top 10 plays of the week.I would be always disappointed to not find him there.Gladly the dvds came in the 20s but still his recorded plays were rare.Only in 2015 that i heard in the internet of the praises he gets from his colleagues.If you are looking for executions of pick and roll and you have players who are not as tall as your opponents,get a hold of his games and enjoy how he turns the Jazz into one of the greatest teams in the NBA.
next time I have an argument about a guard 1 I share this
Thanx
A Duo like Stockton and Karl Malone may never be seen again because it takes selfless esp that in this day and age is sadly rare. Thank God I was alive when they performed their magic.
The Mailman didn't Deliver on Sundays
Raised and living here in SLC. As a kid in the ‘80s, I loved going to the Jazz games, especially when Chicago came to town. Grew up a huge fan of MJ and Scottie, but by the time I got into high school, I was so ready to see my hometown team be the first to sink the Bulls in the finals. Unfortunately, it never happened. That ‘97 Jazz team was astounding. Stockton’s talent, toughness, and intellect are unrivaled. He’d be my first pick for all-time best PG any day, no question. Great video and tribute to one of the greatest b-ball players of all time.
Just for kicks, look up the Dream Team games where he plays alongside Bird, Mullen, Magic, etc. Some of the finest passing I’ve ever seen.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Says hes a huge fan of MJ and SP but rooted against them in the finals. I think you have no fucking clue what a huge fan is
Let me tell you how underrated he is. One year later only 58000 views on this popular channel!
In my opinion, John Stockton is the best point guard ever! Magic is second.
Best shooting guard is Michael Jordan. Kobe is second.
Best small forward is Larry Bird. Pippen is second.
Best power forward is Tim Duncan. Charles Barkley is second.
Best center is Hakeem Olajuwon. Kareem is second.
Best center is Shaq, I can't think of anyone more dominant then him
@@jakedooley5300 Wilt my dude. Averaged 50 and 30
I’m a Bulls fan and I’ll be the first to admit that John Stockton is an all-time great.
thank you for spitting mad facts right here people always argue he does not have a championship like bruh that does not always matter
You are my favorite nba you tube guy of all time if you start by saying john stockton is your favorite point guard of all time. Good job, mate! From Utah
I liked his style. No trash talk, didn't get phased by it either. One of the most durable players ever. He didn't seem to be as flashy as Nash, but he had more accuracy with his passes. He was a great defender. Perhaps the only complaint was his lack of 3 point shooting. I wished I could have watched him play. I think part of the reason he isn't talked about as much is because he's quiet. I don't see him in the news like I do Kobe or all these other retired players.
My Favorite player and of course point guard! Kids this is how you play the point position. Try to make the best decision for your TEAM to put them ahead.
best episode so far. another level :] although a bit to short.
made playoffs all 19 seasons he played. in 16 of those seasons he played all 82 games. His consistency, iron man toughness, focus, decision making and IQ 2nd to none. He is THE prototype PG.
All time leader in assists and steals. There’s not a close second.
Stockton to Malone. I heard that phrase so many times and it never got old.
Stockton was so good man and some people think that Stockton could not play in this league today please he shot 51 percent from the field and 38 percent from 3 back then a guy who could shot like that today plus his court vision passing ability mastering the pick and roll and he was tough too and would play through i juries as well and still give you the business has no idea
Easily the greatest point guard to every play the game. Smart, durable and just fantastic in every way.
Great video. Thanks for recognizing this truth.
Seeing the draft table I could say that maybe this draft year was probably the best in the history of the NBA, Hakeem Olajuwon, Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, Sam Perkins, Alvin Robertson, John Stockton, Otis Thorpe, Kevin Willis, Jerome Kersey... This draft you can make a team that really can be fearful for anybody... The only thing that can pass through my mind, how you beat a team with the defense in the zone, the rebounding the perimeter defense of this virtual team... Stockton would averaged like 20,0 assists per game with this team....
In this 'I shoot' mentality of modern NBA, John Stockton's assist record may not broken, MAY NOT be broken.
Hes the best man that guy bleed basketball. Him and magic are the best pgs

You are a very intelligent young man
Stockton is my favorite point guard and if he had more great players around him he would have definitely won championships.
Yep John Stockton was definitely underrated but had skills undeniable. I believe he was over looked at times because he was low key and just went on about his business like a blue collar worker. Him and Malone had the hardest pick and roll to defend.If him and Malone had a better supporting cast as the other greats did they could had a couple of championships.
That record will never be broken
Leads history in assists and steals. Enough said
My All Time Team is...
C - Hakeem
PF - Duncan
SF - Bird
PG - Stockton
SG - Jordan
that is my exact all-time starting 5
Ervin "Magic" Johnson...the G.O.A.T. point guard...
Humble greatness can sometimes be hard to spot & remember.
John Stockton and Tim Duncan are my favorite players ever.
It was so much fun watching that Jazz team!
Johnny Stock wasn't flashy, didn't talk trash, didn't give interviews he was tought by coach Sloan that being a NBA player is nothing prestigious it was a job and that's how you treat it. And that's exactly what Johnny Stock did, went to work busted his arse and went home to the wife and kids. I always wondered if Johnny Stock would have been si and played so tough and physical if coach Sloan wasn't his coach. Jerry Sloan was a tough SOB and a man's man. No off court antics or publicity Johnny Stock was just a blue collar man going to work to make a living just like any regular person. When everybody talks about Stockton to Malone everybody forgets it's coach Sloan and coaching staff that had that pick and roll down to perfection.
Jerry Sloan coach of the year every year!!!
Stockton was absolutely the best and most amazing true PG to ever run the game on an NBA court!!
Grind , grind, excellence. John stockton.
That Stockton to malone for the all-time assists really brings backs some memories
Stockton and Malone also got away with a lot of fouls just as Jordan.
Played 4 years in college , his first 3 years as pro as a back up pg , never complained never demanded a trade always have 100 % , an absolute credit to himself and one of the great players all time and thee greatest character in sports history , basically the opposite to all the stars of today that are never happy and always demanding to be traded , I love u John Stockton
This is the best video on youtube. Fact.
I 100% agree that John Stockton is the greatest pg of all time, I've said this since 95', and being from Houston, I considered him a legend well before he ended our season in 98'! Magic was great, but even Wilt Chamberlain picked Stockton over magic lol I think the 84' draft was the greatest ever because it had a top 5 player at pg, SG, pf, and center!

@@rawdogmaterial365 Isiah had 3 other players that could run the point and they often did. He even had a guy coming off the bench that could run point! Stockton is the most pure pg to ever live and with a better defensive team, he would've won at least 1 ring
Stockton is the ebst PG ever cause he is (was) in nba jam. That's it!
He's heating up, he's on fire!
The programmer of NBA was suppose to release the version with Jordan in it.
He made the mailman so much better.
Gotta give respect to Stockton & Malone for their consistency and longevity. They're really compatible to Mike and Scottie on the collective consistency. Unfortunately, the ring or no ring issue will follow Stockton. And that's bullshit. That's why videos like this helps. I can't say he's the best though. I think that could be Zeke aka Isiah potentially. But, he gets that for leading his team to back to back titles. Along with his winning at every level going back to St. Joe. But Stockton does and should in the top PG category of all time!
respect the legendary best pure point guard ever JHONNY STOCK!!! he would have back to back chips if Mike wasnt born...
I think Malone, as good as he was, was the achilles heel with the Jazz team. Malone can score and give you numbers, yes, but in a championship game every team has that player. The problem with Malone is he is not a clutch player, when the chips are down he can not rise up to the occasion...... basically he's a choker and doesn't have the nerves or killer instinct to set that dagger into the hearts of the opponents. Malone is a great player, but I wouldn't want him as my #1 player if I'm playing for a championship.
Stockton fulfilled the true role of point guard
