@John doue Quebec The question comes down to what is the core of a point guard. Defensively you want someone that would fight around screens, be a hard nose defender and to get steals from good reads, not trying only to get that. That pretty accurately describes Stockton. Offensively, it's more subjective, if we are taking this as a pure point guard then you are looking for someone who is a willing and efficent passer that makes lots of consistently good passes, having a career assist to turnover ratio of 3.72. He ran the offense well, something you would hope from a pure point guard, and when he was shooting he was efficent (from all places on the floor as well). But what about a more shooting oriented point guard, well he still shows some of the fundementals of how to be an effective on ball point guard. In that way you could see him also as a blueprint, someone to look at and try and integrate what they were good at into your own game.
Gotta love how he stole the ball right after the missed dunk by K. Malone and the unnecessary extra pass by J. Malone and dished the assist... And by the way let's never forget that Stockton holds not only the record for the number of assists, but for the steals too... and he has the best shooting percentage for a guard! And yes he could dunk the ball :D That man was a beast!
stockton busts out 12-15 assists on an average day. that just doesnt happen anymore. "stockton to malone" was probably the three most used words in the NBA in the 90s.
The greatest thing about Stockton's passes were that they were always in the flow of the game, and within the offense, and not forced like some of today's PGs that just try and rack up assist numbers for their stats.
And what a block from Stockton on Robinson. 1991 Stockton was so much faster and played more minutes. Cant believe this team couldnt win first playoff series against Warriors I think.
Great new interview here with John Stockton John discusses short shorts, the 97-98 season, dream team, his durability, toughness, karl malone, Coach Sloan, the missed shot vs. Bulls, Tim Donaghy scandal, explains his controversial vaccine stance, more ua-cam.com/video/DAKIsvcnGLQ/v-deo.html

Stockton would have been a beast in Fantasy basketball. Assists, steals, high %s and in my league we play double doubles as a category so that would be a nice bonus.
T. Bailey's still with the Jazz, so this should be from 90-91 season. As a Skiles fan, I don't argue on which one's better. Two PGs had completely different supporting casts. Partially I see that the Magic got lucky with Denver filled with so many injuries that year, and teams went to OTs. Denver's starting big men were pretty sad that day. Skiles also got lots of help from some unsung names like Jerry Ice Reynolds. Without those difficults shots, assists wouldn't have been completed.
That game didn't go OT. Sorry. This game's from Jan. 15, 1991, Utah won by 22. At that point, SAS was at 24W-8L but had to go w/o Terry Cummings that day. Greenwood and S. Green absolutely struggled against Mailman...
They say “ back in the day was tougher to play in than these days” 🤣…. Looks about the same to me bro. Same kinda non existent defense as now. How many times did Stockton pick the ball up after dribbling and no one tried to strip the ball and let him pass it cmon. Steph would’ve killed defense like this. And the athleticism ain’t even close to now. These days everyone is fast and strong. At one point Stockton was on the break and a spur was steps behind him and gave up, these days they definitely challenging that 100%. I see a lotta lazy play I don’t see today or they’ll be benched. And shot making abilities these days are next level, current nba players take the game serious these dudes was smoking after games and getting drunk.
+bernard james It's all about Bball IQ and accuracy. Caling the right plays, waiting for the right time, controling the tempo, dominating on defense, Stockton did all that with a pokerface every night. He was like a general commanding his troops.
The purest point guard of all time. He should be called the blueprint.

CP3 just hit 9K assists. Stockton has 15K to put that into perspective! This record will never be broken 💯

"Jerry Sloan wants them to foul to give Stockton a chance!" Haha yeah right
I miss Stockton so much and this style of basketball. You gotta love it baby.
You can see and listen to him @ the Voices for Medical Freedom Vlog / podcast. Still a brave man.l

How the fuck does one get 28 assists in the NBA level. Good lord.

Purest Creator and Passer Ever. The Best Pure PG Ever!
20 points, 28 assist, 8 steals.
More john Stockton!!!!
Basketball art.
The Minivan Assassin!! Please post more videos of Hot Rod and Boone on commentary.
4:07 "John Stockton at his ever-lovin best!" - Love it.
Should have had 30 amazzing stuff
Hot Rod Hundley..... If you don't know that name, you are not worthy.
Nooooo Jeff Malone! That's the one time you don't pass!
And Jerry Sloan with the classy move..
Jeff Malone what are you doing???
fav pg
Glad your back at the videos!
5:55 Where the hell did he come from?
What a hell O_o
I can't believe that dude passed off the ball, did he not know?
So this is how the mighty handcheking looks like?
Tied 3rd for most in a game, but 1st for under 40min in a game. Incredible
should have been 29 ! cmon malone ! lol

Back when basketball was real.
Not todays flop flest trash
King of Play Maker.
Awesome!
He could have got 31 if Malone didn't pass and stockton didn't sit
at his best
Best point guard AND shooter...sloan shoulda made him shoot more often..
28 assists...I mean, WHO DOES THAT ANYMORE?
He could of had a quadruple double this game
Shoot I might have been at that game. I gotta check my ticket stubs.
My childhood hero was mark Eaton. Thurl was always nicer.
greatest shot blocker of all time?
Yes. Big Mark's career average 3.5 BPG will never be broken.
どうやったら28もアシストができるんだよw
Is 28 assists the highest mark ever?
No you hea

3:55 HE BLOCKED DAVID ROBINSON oO
There have been a few better players but none as perfect as Stockton. He almost did nothing wrong on the court.
it only happens in 2k now
he had 29?
I love this jazz team but I never enjoyed listening to this commentator ever - don’t like his commenting style

with all due respect....some of these i wouldn't call assists...

lebron passes way better, stockton used to stay up waiting for open guys, rondo lebron cp3 are all better passers than this guy and even magic johnson
+bernard james It's all about Bball IQ and accuracy. Caling the right plays, waiting for the right time, controling the tempo, dominating on defense, Stockton did all that with a pokerface every night. He was like a general commanding his troops.
Djacommo Knox agreed, but straight up passing, the accuracy, difficulty, speed of the pass, he aint nowhere close to the top, magic johnson neither
+bernard james uh wrong. And aint? Nice use of a non existent word.
cp3? you loose all credibility.
mark brinton no
Just no
