John Stockton missed only 22 games in 19 seasons. He made it to the playoffs every year of his career. Made it to 5 Western conference championships and 2 NBA Finals appearances. He has the most steals and assists in NBA history which no one will ever surpass. All this to say, he's a legend.

He was sort of the perfect point guard. He could defend extremely well. He could score and score with very high efficiency. Obviously his career assists and steals records might never be broken. He rarely missed games. His ability to score was very, very underrated.

[@austin31bennett]

Stockton is my second favorite player behind Tim Duncan. Don't care if people call me boring. Boring is beautiful and Stockton is the purest point guard of all time on both ends of the floor. And just like Duncan, he stayed with the franchise and never complained. Consummate professional. Absolutely love rewatching those 97/98 Finals matchups with the Bulls and getting treated to both the GOAT and Stockton battling.

[@wh5027]

As someone who watched and loved that whole era, what people today don't realize is Stockton was a deadly shooter also, he just didn't shoot often and always looked to pass 1st unless he was wide open or the game was on the line. He shot very little. He could have easily had a higher scoring average if he jacked up shots like today's PGs do.

[@Mmacrossfirekenai]

Stockton did not shoot enough especially in crunch time that was the only criticism

[@stevewilson9778]

Today's point guards play more like shooting guards, fr. Especially guys like Kyrie, Lillard, and to a lesser extent, Steph Curry. I'd also argue that Westbrook would have been more suited to the SG position.

[@corkystorky]

the very first time I saw Stockton played (on tv), he made 4 straight perimeter shots, and I was like whoah that dude sure is amazing, he made it look easy

[@mycole1990]

He played straight to the point, no pun intended.

[@mehmetsemihdellal]

Stockton is the definition of 'point guard'

[@gltwn]

an overlooked point with Stockton is that he played with the all time leader in free throws, Karl Malone, which diminished his assist totals a lot. I heard Chris Ford make this point on the Simmons podcast circa 2007. Stockton should have had more assists, because on a lot of the plays Malone was just looking for the foul. Chris Ford made the point that Stockton got screwed on a lot of his assists due to this factor.

[@steefvanburen7985]

Could be a good one. If the player who gets fouled makes a freethrow, and so adding a point to the score. The player who assisted before the foul should get rewarded with a assist. Without that assist he wouldnt have got to the line anyway.

[@markcothran2615]
