Discuss please
He was an elite regular season performer at the ages of 25-34. Monster stats. High level stuff.
He was a good to very good playoff performer, but obviously wouldn't be the lead guy on a championship. No different from any other small PG to be honest outside of a 6'9 dude who could play all 5 positions.
I just stole DoK's theory and ran away with it in this thread.
Overrated honky.
Underrated honky
Lots of people tend to overrate him and rank him in the top 15, but he was an elite player.
Disagree. Overrated player, but his contributions to honkidom have been overlooked for far too long.

Stockton was the original Chris Paul without all the injuries.
To be honest. I think Isiah is a bit overrated.
Underrated. Fantastic floor leader, tough as nails (and a dirty streak to back it up as well), fantastic in the half court, great shooter.
If he had a half-decent big, like a Robinson, Barkley, Kemp, or maybe even Ewing instead of an overrated pedophile, Stockton may have been able to win a ring during the Jordan baseball years or in 98, during the tail end of Jordan's reign.
Barkley
lol ambchang
neither, he got the praise he deserved, he never wont a ring though, but was part of the dream team, and a solid contributor i might add, but he was an elite player during that era, and you have to respect him for that
Neither. He's a HOFer who never rang. He's rated about right, and in the top 10 PGs of all time.
underrated
Stockton today would be rated just a little bit lower than Chris Paul. He hated to lose and would do anything to win. He is rated right about where he should be.
I agree. I would only put Paul over him in today's game. He was a great player.
I have never seen that in my life.
Generally I would say he's underrated. I think he made Malone a lot better than he really was.
Stockton was clutch
He never rang because of that choker Malone
dont u think most people would agree that malone was the reason utah was so good..
Malone was a massive choker who lived off of Stockton's pick and roll.
Malone was good, but people who try to say he is > Duncan or Barkley, should just kill themselves.
the pass gets delivered but he has to finish, malone was a ing beast, you guys realy arent giving him enough credit.
And he was able to finish because the passes were made where he almost couldn't miss. Except he did miss....when it counted the most.
Used to read insidehoops forum, 9 people out of 10 would put Stockton in their top 15, some in the top 10. I figure they represent a large portion of average basketball fans born in the 80s
Barkley...ran into mj
lol ambchang
Ewing...ran into mj and olajuwan
Kemp...ran into mj
Robinson...ran into olajuwan
I don't remember the Lakers ringing in the 90s. Magic did get to the finals in '91 but....oh that's right....he ran into mj.
