In the previous lecture, because many friends lacked the background understanding of the Jordan era, they underestimated the old rogue seriously, so they wasted some ink and ink to render. Let friends know that the old rogue is not easy, the super giants of his time are not easy, and how strong the old rogue's scoring ability is. Later, it will be explained why the old rogue, as a quarterback, is so efficient and what is different.
In this chapter, we talk about Stockton, my favorite traditional point guard. Do you have friends who like him, please shout out loud!! Stockton is 100 percent underrated, and his toughness, his wisdom, is equally incomprehensible to many. Together with Carl Malone, Stockton has built the frontier town of Salt Lake City into a traditional strong team in the NBA era, which is really a hero of an era. Stretching out five fingers, in addition to the empty wedding ring, open a bottle of 82 years of Jiang Xiaobai, but the table is full of cups. Stockton patted the cucumbers of Chiye Farm, pulled the little brother Carl Malone, and cooked wine and nagged the hooligans when there was nothing to do.
"How come your ball was broken by the old hooligan?"
"Why don't you end up helping Russell pack the old rogue...
"In '97 I had a bag, and he passed it on to Cole. ."
"The problem is that you didn't score the last three points...
"Mad, then finally you go to the Lakers to figure something...
"Hey, O'Neill did it too. . . ."
There are many unattainable records in the NBA, and if it's purely data records, I personally think most of the records that are least likely to be broken belong to Stockton and Jordan.
Jordan has 10 leading scorers, 6FMVP, which is the most difficult record to break in terms of personal honors; Stockton holds the record for assists and steals, which is the most difficult record to break in terms of data accumulation, it can be said that it is basically impossible to break, too strong!!!
Old hooligans everyone knows, 198 height, palms are very large, bouncing against the sky, speed against the sky, strength against the sky, physical strength against the sky, body strength against the sky, body flexibility against the sky, key ball ability against the sky, competitive spirit against the sky, mentality against the sky. Winning championships in college, winning in the Olympics, 6 NBA championships, Madd, as far as the basketball court is concerned, the old hooligan has nothing to say, perfect beyond measure.
Stockton who ah, that 185 little white face, bouncing generally, palms are quite large, speed is average, strength is average, physical strength is against the sky, the confrontation is not bad, the body strength is against the sky, the body flexibility is general, the key ball ability is good, the competitive spirit is good, and the mentality is against the sky. The university is not well known, he can succeed, and there are two impossible to break the cumulative record of data??? Impossible!!! Yes, in the point guard position, Stockton is so badly underestimated that he can speak through without words. IMHO, Stokes' general static talent may not be able to enter the domestic county competition.
Maybe personally more traditional, I think the best point guard is Stockton. While the most honorable point guard is undoubtedly the Magician, my favorite point guard is Stockton. Because he is loyal enough, real enough, stable enough, tough enough, selfless enough, hard enough, detailed enough. Of course, he was still very dirty when he played, which I was disgusted with, flawed, and in general, his favorite point guard at that time was him. Why I think Jordan is perfect, because all the teams are very strict with him, even rough, but he defends cleanly and sharply, and never injures any of his opponents. Jordan said: I can accept failure, but I can't accept giving up. In the game, he can afford to lose, he will not lose in a hurry, he is ashamed and angry, blaming his teammates for hitting his teammates and retaliating against his opponents to injure his opponents. How many times Pippen pulled his crotch, Jordan basically did not say anything, how many times Rodman made a mistake, how many games were absent, Jordan just used action to impress. This is jordan's most likable point, and he has hardly ever thrown a pot in public. So he endured for seven years, soaring, fans exploded, and he was the only one. After becoming famous, after three consecutive years, Jordan was actually full attendance, he said such a paragraph: Pippen is injured, Harper is old, Rodman is often absent and older, Kukoc has a limited body and the inside line cannot be tough, and Langley everyone knows a few pounds and a few pairs. I had to go all out because the Bulls' last two-game teammates were really average, and I had no excuses, and there was no way back. Once on the pitch, I have to give everything I have, because with my game, the tickets are extremely expensive, and many people save money in their lifetime to watch me perform once, and I must not let them down.
Stockton, due to the limitations of height, weight and physical fitness, he can't play like Jordan, holding high, flying high, flying in the sky, in the clouds, gorgeous to the extreme. Old Si plays ball, conscientious, real, step by step, step by step, there are boards and eyes, simplify complexity, water to water, practical first. His point guard, which is textbook, is not one of them. First of all, it is extremely difficult for you to interrupt the ball from his hand, when to attack, when to pass the ball, when to speed up, when to press the rhythm, who gives what ball, what situation and what to do, a clear picture, the existence of the big picture, just one word "stable", two words "reasonable". In Jazz games, it's often Stockton who opens the game, teammate Shun, he's crazy to assist, teammates can't attack, he scores efficiently, you defend him, teammates are empty, he's crazy assists, really good at playing!!!
As mentioned in the previous chapter, throughout the 90s, only the Blazers in the West rushed out of the West twice, and the Rockets rushed out of the West twice. The Jazz have rushed out of the West twice, of which the Jazz have a total of 5 Western Conference Finals (92 to the Blazers, 94 to the Rockets, 96 to the Supersonics, 97, 98), the Jazz were the strongest team in the NBA West in the 90s, not one of them. And this team has always been stockton's helm, Carl Malone running hall, and the team investment is a model of environmental protection (similar to the Spurs). Stockton's 19 seasons with the Utah Jazz, the team all made it to the playoffs, really hanging out. If I had to choose a player as the cornerstone, Stockton is a premier presence, unpretentious, rock solid!!
If Jordan's NBA career is a fairy legend, you will not dare to write it with paper and pencil, because his performance is too magical. Then Stockton's career can be called an inspirational history, and you dare not write it with paper and pencil, because he is equally magical, and extremely tragic, tragic to the point that the honor record is soft, the lack of championships, is underestimated by countless fans who only look at honor, underestimated to the extent of the common anger of gods.
In short, Stokes is a contradiction. It seems to be honest and honest, but in fact it is sinister and cunning; it looks like a white-faced student, but it is actually brave and fierce; it seems to be small and exquisite, but it is actually strong and durable; it seems to be the king of assists, but it actually attacks against the sky; it seems that it is not hurried or slow, but it is actually the king; it seems to have no desire and no demand, but it is actually competitive; it seems to be tepid, but it is actually a ball dealer. If Olds hadn't been like this, the Jazz wouldn't have been so good at all. To be fair, Stockton's ability to play hard battles, in jordan's day, I have to give him the top five in the league, the more critical the game the more stable it is, which is much stronger than Malone. The only regret is that around 97 there was a knee injury and surgery, which seriously affected the performance of the 97-98 season on the offensive end, otherwise the Bulls would be more fierce. 19 seasons of career, 17 seasons of full attendance ah (98-99 season due to labor disputes, only 50 games), what concept, partial 97 knee surgery, but also bad luck ah!
But without Jordan, give Stockton a ring or two, I dare to say out loud that Stockton is the best organizational defender, not one. Stockton was number one in total assists and first in total steals. Magicians are third in the total assists list and fifteenth in the magicians' total steals list. Stockton, 19 seasons, averaged 10.5 career assists and an average of 2.2 steals per game. Magic, 13 seasons, career average of 11.2 assists, average 1.9 steals. If the Magicians had also played 19 seasons, the stats would have been lowered. Many would say stockton has a high assist statistic because there is a strongest player with the 13th overall pick, Malone, who brushes with him. The problem is that the Magician is in the Lakers, there are two champions and two fourth-place stars, a total of four brushes for him. Magician Guiwei's personal ability is certainly not to say, these 13 seasons, his teammate bonus is also very important! In its heyday, the Lakers showed time, the offense was too strong, so the magician's data was even more gorgeous. The Lakers' strong lineup in '91 lost 4-1 to Jordan. The Jazz lineup of '97 and '98 can put the Bulls in a desperate situation. What is the city of Los Angeles, what is the township of Salt Lake City, what is the deck of the Lakers, what is the jazz lineup. Thinking about it in other ways, I personally feel that Stockton is greater, even stronger.
Again, the casting of the star is basically doomed to the attribution of honor. No matter how strong it is, Stockton's career and Jordan are 100% overlapping, doomed to be miserable!
Jordan was born on February 17, 1963, and Stockton on March 26, 1962.
In the summer of 1984 , Jordan was selected by the Brisket Bulls with the third pick in the first round , while Stockton was selected by the Jazz with the 16th pick in the first round.
On April 16, 2003, Jordan was retired, and on May 2, 2003, John Stockton officially announced his retirement.
Just by looking at these sets of years, months and days, you know that Lao Si has to suffer, and if you understand the process carefully, you will know how bad Lao Si's luck really is. Rogue Jordan, greasy at a young age. Old Sky has thick hair, but he is extremely unlucky. Stockton, who has 5.3 eyesight and easily pilots an F16 fighter jet, can't control the flying man Jordan for a lifetime, and the old rogue has the NBA's most luxurious private jet, and he doesn't have to drive it. In short, compared to Jordan, Stockton was really depressed and was crushed in all directions. Stockton 100% cashed in on his talent, dedication, self-discipline, on and off the field, impeccable. Old hooligans, fragrant car beauties, spending days and drinks, five poisons, high ball baseball, gambling addiction, flowers and grass, index finger injuries, junk food, love cigars, buy drunken prostitutes, willful retirement, can be described as a bamboo book. Truth be told, the 50% estimate of the old rogue's own talent has not been fulfilled. So unscrupulously hoho talent, teammates are worse than Stockton, but there are 6 FMVPs, yellow robes plus body, known as His Majesty, ranked 95!! Stokes, following the rules, hard work, but can only sing Cui Jian's old songs. Probably this is the essential difference between aliens and earthlings, and there is an insurmountable gap between geniuses and ordinary talents! This gap cannot be bridged by hard work, and the gifted thing really makes no sense.
The old convention, by timeline, was to give our mini rogue Stockton arrangements.
In the United States, Stockton is a small white-collar worker who is not proud of his appearance and is serious. 185 height, 150 pounds of weight, and the crowd is indeed ordinary. Looks good, white and pure, wears a pair of glasses, teaches in college, and works as a clerk in the company. After graduating from high school, no basketball school was interested in Stockton, and eventually Stockton entered a private university, The University of Gonzaga. The college he attended was not famous, Stockton was unpretentious, he couldn't see anything different, I couldn't even check his college data until now, but you can imagine how little he thinks about his entry into the NBA.
'84 is the super year of the draft, Jordan, Big Dream, Fliggy, Old Si these big gods are concentrated in this year. Robertson, Perkins and others also have considerable strength. In the crowded draft, the dwarf Stockton couldn't believe his ears when he was selected by the Utah Jazz in the first round of 16. A pinch, a pain, not a dream.
It has been repeatedly emphasized that in that era, except for a very few stars, the draft luck of the vast majority of stars determined their personal honor and historical status. Most of the stars who have dominated the historical rankings have been lucky enough to be selected by super clubs or transferred to super teams. Fish belly, small balls will be able to make a fortune. Jordan and Big Dream are the model of a fish belly turnaround, so they have the strongest personal strength. Although the Spurs are also small clubs, but they have a different path, the champion David Robinson is at the peak, and he can deliberately swing luckily to get Duncan, and since then he has ridden the dust. Speaking of draft ability alone, I serve the Jazz alone, a 16th pick in 84, a 13th pick in 85, that is, a playoff trip for 19 consecutive years, ask who else!! In the past 19 years, these two people to death, there are few reinforcements, and it is not easy to achieve such a good record.
A few months before the Mini Rogue '84 draft, he tried his way to the Jazz for the first time, and after the end he felt he should have missed the NBA. Look at the strongest point guard magician at the time, 206 tall, calling the wind and rain. Thomas, the point guard of 183, is strong enough, and the fishing technique is already in full swing at this moment. Height is crucial for basketball, stockton has no confidence in himself is also normal, he himself is not clear, jazz in the end what aspect of their ability, the first round can choose him is like a fantasy. The rookie's first-year salary was $150,000, which was a bucket of gold for Stockton. Fearing that he would soon be cut by the Jazz, he rented a cheap one-bedroom apartment in Salt Lake City. In order to save money, swallow chaff pickles, and when you have time to make your own noodles, you can wear chili sauce and also count as a tooth sacrifice. Ultimately, Stockton felt he could be eliminated by the NBA at any time. From his approach, it can also be seen that this person is very clear about his position, doing things based on the long term, and far-sighted.
For the jazz's first two years, Stockton played as a substitute for Ricky Green on the team. This brother is only 183 shorter, also about 150 pounds, which is 77 years and the 16th pick, which was at its peak. It felt like Jazz was taking the medicine according to the prescription and found a substitute for Green. In fact, Stockton, who just entered the NBA, showed extraordinary game reading ability, assists and scoring ability are stronger than Green, just because of the bench, not showing dew. But his progress is there for all to see, and he is ready to go without missing a game. In the first three seasons, playing 20 minutes, 7 points and 7 assists, 49% shooting rate, the efficiency is quite good, this kind of time requires playing to generate electricity. If you give him 34 minutes, the data is 12 points and 12 assists, a proper two-double king, ah, what is valuable is that his offensive efficiency is still so high.
In the 87-88 season, replacing Green as the main point guard, the data skyrocketed, Stockton averaged 34 minutes per game, 14.7 points, 13.8 assists, 3 steals, shooting 57.4%. This perverted data lasted almost 9-10 years, terriblely strong, terriblely stable, and horribly low-key. And Stockton, like Jordan at his peak, is good at hard fighting, stronger, and his playoff stats are stronger than in the regular season. It shows that he usually plays with it, but only tries his best in the knockout round, and it is not difficult to explain why he is basically not injured, after all, he has more than enough strength.
From 1987 to 1996, Stockton won 9 consecutive assists, during which he averaged 16 points, 13 assists and 2.5 steals per game, shooting 53% from the field. '88 and '92 were steal kings. Almost all of his assists record is left by Stockton, and his offensive efficiency is the best in the guard group. And his position, in addition to the early to the peak of the Assassins to take advantage of a few years, the peak of Kevin Johnson has come and gone, the rising star Payton has been conquered by mini rogues, bullshit Skla. For more than ten years, as a point guard, scoring does not lose you, efficiency explodes you, assist ability explodes you, steals explode you, basically no injury. Jazz in those ten years can stand firm, Stockton played a mainstay role, at least in the point guard, more than a decade Stockton to the attack and defense of the two ends of the pinch to death, Jazz steady to earn.
Take an excerpt from a set of Stockton's records online and get a feel for what it means to go against the sky.

Why the short mini rogue, can have such energy, all-encompassing, the reason is multifaceted, let's comb together.
First of all, Stockton's physique is seriously underestimated, and the mini rogue has a fighter jet driver's license, the only existence in the entire NBA. After retiring from the army, he flew the F16 fighter jet alone to take off into the air and hit the long sky, and when he was young, he was a reserve air force, which showed that he was strong. In addition, his physical fitness, extremely fast running, excellent physical coordination, pay attention to practical results. Very similar to Stockton's body shape is actually Mark Price, who was at the peak of the Cavaliers, and the little white Price caused a lot of trouble for Jordan's bulls. Price, who is 183, is known for his accurate shooting and super points. He averaged 15.2 points, 6.7 boards, 1.19 steals, 47.2 percent shooting and 722 games in his career regular season. No more than not knowing, compared to a shock, Stockton is almost twice the length of Price's career, except for scoring 2 points less, other data is completely small. If you only take 10 years of data, Stockton is also stronger than Price. Super durable, high scoring efficiency, defensive online, Stockton is also YYDS.
Once he was snatched by Stockton, after he got up, Jordan didn't have a good way to do it, most of them watched, let alone other defenders, really hardcore. Fouls are not good, this cargo has maintained an 82.6% free throw shooting rate for 19 years, rather than maybe two plus one, it is better to let him score two points.
Second, Stockton's mind was grossly underestimated. Jordan, like Stockton, acts to speak. The old hooligan is burning at one point, spitting out lotus flowers, eyes will be rewarded, and will go back in minutes. Stokes, pretending to be deaf and dumb, silent, boiled toads in warm water, and arranged slowly. Payton was arrogant enough to serve Stockton all his life, and entered the Hall of Fame to invite Stokes as an introducer. Listen to what gloves have to say: Mini rogue, you must not be fooled by his stupid appearance. When I first entered the alliance, I quickly rose to prominence, spraying old hooligans with their mouths hanging in the air. Only to meet Stokes, there is nothing to do, punching on the cotton, arranged to be unclear. You talk to him garbage, he farts when you fart, you scold the mother to find out that he doesn't know what to do, you make indecent gestures to find out that he is cataract, you push him as if he is doing Thai, you score goals he also scores, you assist him better than you do, in short, in vain. Fortunately, when I was at the peak, he was no longer at the peak, and he won the first round in 1993, and he had a knee injury at the peak in 96. Most of the time, I really can't figure him out. It's hard to imagine a small white man, playing so tough, unmoved by any external factors, with thorns all over his body. Nine shots per game, 5 shots, plus 4 free throws and more than 3 hits, 15 or 16 points, and a 52% shooting rate, while brewing the team's offense in good order, I had to obey. You're tough, he's tougher than you, you play yin, he's more yin than you. You have to know how competitive the NBA point guard is, he still worked for 19 years, I have five bodies to the ground, so I chose him as my Hall of Fame referral. Anyway, it is not clear in three words and two words, you and he have really done it on the field, you know that what I said is not false.
Moreover, Stockton's competitive spirit is super strong, and Jordan is a level presence, which cannot be measured by achievement. Those who had been in stockton's position were all verbally swearing, swearing, and dumbfounded. Many players anonymously select the most sinister and dirty star in history, and the white stockton comes out on top, and who dares to believe it now. At that time, Rodman stabbed his knees in one hand to cure egg pain, and the old rogue Jordan retreated, and even the photojournalist on the sidelines was in pain. This is not the same as Stockton a ball down, the only few shots, Rodman painted a picture: Mad, just pasted on the mini rogue, an elbow directly to the top, a burst of soft ribs, as he changed hands and turned, impartially the other elbow directly to me burst the liver, the breath is not smooth how to defend. Holding his breath, holding back the pain, he was thinking of jumping to block his passing route, how could not jump up, a look at the left foot was stomped on by him deadly. It was so easy to break free, and he chased him at a high speed, and his ankle was hooked by an unknown object. Your sister, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? You complain that it is useless, the referee does not blow ah, blow the beard and stare at the referee also.
Taking a deep breath of the cigar, Worm continued to share: I have a general idea about the size of league stars, but Stockton can definitely be accurate to microns. When he defended me, his whole body rested on me, and the hand with his back to the referee was always on my private place, and from time to time he gave you a refreshment and a wake-up call, and after Ma De came off, I usually found where the swelling and pain were unbearable. If I play dirty, Stokes is my uncle, he is really dirty, and the referee is always towards him, omitting ten thousand words...
Big worm noodles have dishes to continue BB: you complain about him, useless, he is definitely a practicing family. I'm not a good stubble either, many people are stronger than me, and they want to abolish the mini rogues, but the concubines can't do it! First of all, people's actions are hidden, their acting skills are exaggerated, and then others are the physique of fighter pilots, and if you waste his actions, you will inevitably be banned, and you will not be able to abolish him and wait for him to retaliate. 19 years of rain or shine, ranked first among the four evil people, nothing is impossible. Lambier, Oakley, Malone and Stockton are collectively called the four evil men, and Mahon is the one who knows a little bit. Stockton is the grandmaster, Malone is actually his horse boy, Malone peak combat strength, even Mahon, Oakley, Mason can't do anything with him, I will pinch the onion and pound the garlic. You go Stockton, and Malone has an excuse to you, nobody's that stupid. This product is an absolute leader in small actions, and it is self-taught. I was older than him and studied under Lambier, but compared to Stockton, I was a weak chicken. In the Spurs year, we were in great shape, and the behavior of the mini hooligans made me disdainful. I arched his ass slightly, his head instantly tilted towards the referee and let out a pig-like scream, and the referee asked me to go to the box lunch and add a ban. I swear to God, I couldn't beat him by one percent, and yet the Spurs were eliminated 1-3.
Let's talk about Stockton's professionalism. As a point guard, there is no height advantage and no physical ability to explode. But Stockton has the physical ability to run undead, the mentality of honor and disgrace, the sensitivity to simplify complexity, the accumulated experience, the guidance of accurate projection, the dribble advance that cannot be snatched, the layup with elbows, and the free throw of a stable horse, there is no obvious weakness. Unreasonable melon eaters will say that there are assists from Malone brushes, and the question is whether every assist is given to Malone? He shoots accurately, has a strong scoring ability, more than 1500 games, and defends him with thousands of people. This has to talk about Stockton's diligence, playing little Stockton came from a middle-class family, the family had no athletes, and the NBA of that era had been ruled by black people. Stockton, who has no height and amplification, is still white, and to go professional, he must be diligent and make up for it. Sculpted day and night, I practiced a hard kung fu. I also played as a point guard in the early days, and under the high intensity of confrontation, the pass accuracy in high-speed running was extremely difficult to master. At every turn, they were knocked into the eyes of Venus, and people turned over on their horses. It's incredible that Stockton can be so stable and tough. The ability to stop jump shots in advance, the ability to shoot archery on horseback, the layup under confrontation, the two-point and three-point accuracy, these are all practiced, and there is no shortcut to work.
Jazz many rookies recall that their favorite boss is Stockton. When he first came to the team, Lao Si would take out a notebook and kindly make a questionnaire. The content includes your favorite way to score, the most comfortable position to catch the ball, and so on. Later, you will find that he has a good memory, as soon as he plays, he will get to the ball, silky smooth and seamless integration into the team.
Finally, a few words about Stockton's big heart. A fighter that can fly, run and hit people, the heart is inevitable, but there are still few as big as Stockton. Personally, I think Stockton's heart is on par with Jordan's.
In the 1997 Western Conference Finals, in the final moments, Stockton received the ball against Barkley, steadily scored a three-pointer, and sent the three elders to the West.
In game 4 of the 1997 Finals, the Jazz were listless, trailing the Bulls by 5 points in the last three minutes, and everyone felt that they had washed and slept. The mini-rogue took a three-pointer and then made three free throws to trail just one point 72-73. Grab the rebound, throw a Big Dipper navigation throughout the field, the ball is held at the same time, and Malone easily makes a layup to kill the Bulls. Under this pressure, it is too difficult to pass accurately. Don't forget, at that time, his knee was already injured, and he took off the board at the back and threw the ball with one hand without thinking, this kind of accuracy I have not seen the second person do. It seems to be an understatement, but in fact it is comparable to the difficulty of Shu Dao, which is the finals.
In game 6 of the 1998 Finals, 45 seconds before the finale, a key three-pointer gave the Jazz a three-point lead 86-83, and the Jazz basically touched the championship trophy. If it weren't for Jordan next, he quickly made a layup and grabbed two points, and shot Malone to catch the ball and shoot the medieval kill. The champion is the Jazz.
Jordan's last two in a row, I don't worry about others at all, but Stockton is afraid to take the ball, because his three-point attack is too fierce, 38.4% high shooting rate, with the ability to kill with one shot. Fortunately, at that time, his knees were no longer good, so he had seriously degraded in terms of scoring, otherwise the Bulls would most likely lose. Malone crushed Rodman, and Stockton's injury has ruined 30% of his offensive strength, but he is still daunting. For 19 years, Stockton's playoff stats were overall stronger than the regular season, and the mini rogues were unquestionably convincing. If Kalmaron has such a mind as Laosi at a critical moment, it will not be grainless, and it is reasonable that Malone has lost Laosi.
As feudal lords, Stockton and Malone complement each other and complement each other, two rogue hard power leverage, the court style is spicy and tough. Utah has been running amok for 19 years, and when it comes to the best duo, it ranks high in the entire history of the NBA. In '91, Thomas couldn't go to Barcelona because Jordan said I didn't have him. He poured all his anger on the honest Stockton and rubbed it against the old man. Malone had a move to the dragon and repented, so that the smiling assassin Xi Ti 40 stitches. Hum ha two generals, foaming at each other, regardless of each other, liver and gallbladder look at each other. After Lao Si retired, Malone was discouraged and went to the Lakers to be late, which was regrettable.
These two people, really because of Jordan, are grossly undervalued. Cliché, no way, no matter how strong you are, Jordan is three grades ahead of you, and it is unfathomable. Stockton has missed just 22 games in his lifetime, missing four of the opening four of the 89-90 season. Knee surgery in the summer of '97, missing 18 games. In addition, minor injuries do not fall into the line of fire. The Jazz's peak was actually in '92-96, and for various reasons, the peak represented was only '97 and '98. At that time, Byron Russell, Anderson defended very well, and the offense was also lawful. Hornasek received the ball in one hand and shot the ball, Malone was still old and strong, but unfortunately, the 35-36-year-old Stockton was still injured, averaging 2-3 points less on the offensive end and 2-3 fewer assists per game. The Bulls and Jazz played several finals until the end, and if Stockton wasn't injured, the Bulls would most likely kneel. Fortunately, Pippen was also injured, and the impact was no less than Stockton, and the only thing to blame was Jordan for hanging, and others had nothing to do. Bulls are really not as strong as jazz, why have Gundam!!
In 1997, I really didn't want Jazz to win, because Jordan had won the King's Mountain with food poisoning and had already been canonized. In '98, I also wanted the Jazz to win once, and whoever won was acceptable, after all, I especially liked Stockton. After work, I am injured and disease-free, and before I participate in the game, I will watch a Video of a Stockton game, after all, as a member of the ordinary physical fitness, Lao Si is my ultimate idol. He made me feel that hard work can be successful, and it is a model of ordinary people's achievements.
Just as during the Barcelona Dream Team in '92, Stockton walked the streets with a camera, and no one knew him, all when he was an ordinary tourist. At this time, Jordan is disguised, but also front and back, overcrowded. Even Buckley was jealous, saying that Jordan was a natural winner. But I think Stockton's life may be more perfect, playing has cashed in on his talent, and his life after retirement is tasteful and free.
In the memory, a major general, a white horse and silver gun, a skilled bow horse, a sword eyebrow star, and a personable person. Simple and unpretentious, wise and foolish, left and right bow dribbling calm, palm strange large one-handed grasp of the ball, not hurried and slow rhythm master, hit the ground direct pass staggered, high throw long pass laser guidance, around the pile block demolition cloud flowing water, COSCO shot open hand blossom, free throw line steady as an old dog, counterattack on the basket weight if light, advance the emergency stop jump shot ten to nine steady, riding archery hand in hand, yin strokes as a vein of its own, notorious as thunder. That's right, he's Andy Lau in the NBA, John Stockton, a superstar who is so low-key that he doesn't want to look in the mirror. On January 3, 1989, Stockton scored 26 points, 24 assists, 6 steals and 1 turnover, and the double twenty (20 points plus, 20 assists plus) appeared only 39 times in NBA history, Stockton did nine times, and double twenty was just one turnover, only Stockton did it.
Finally, let's list stockton's career total data, let us intuitively feel the beastly behavior of this ordinary man.
Stockton had 15,806 career assists, ranking first in NBA history and 3,715 ahead of second-place Kidd. Even if he averages 10 times per game, Kidd will need four or five full-time seasons to catch up with him.
A total of 3265 steals, also the first in NBA history, ahead of second-place Kidd 581. Kidd will have at least four full-time seasons to catch up with him.
Career total: Ranked 34th in NBA history in 19711.
Career shooting percentage: 51.5%.
In the position of point guard, how many cattle people look up to it, far from reaching!!!
So I agree that Stockton is a nash who is better defensive, a kidd who is better at attacking. He was the aggregator of the organizational defenders, with few shortcomings, and the league for 20 years, only to lose to years and Jordan. The statue of John Stockton, located in the Salt Lake City Energy Settlement Center in 2006, stands opposite Malone's statue.
