nahhhh....Top 4.
But he got no rings. I can't put him over Magic, Big O, or Zeke without rings.
He neck and neck with Kidd, tho. -

You do know Malone is 2nd all time in Defensive Rebounds (7th in total rebounds) a two time MVP, 2nd in Field Goals made and points scored plus 1st in win shares ALLTIME...
Malone could have won without Stockton because his tremendous post skills only required that he got the touches. It's not as if Stockton was throwing him lobs on a regular basis on some Payton/Kemp ? ...
Malone is 3rd all time in win shares
My bad.. he is, Kareem and Wilt are ahead of him -

I remember magic said Stockton gave the lakers headaches because he could play fast or slow depending on what they needed, and would strip their scoters of the ball. And Payton called him or ougher to guard than the GOAT.
I'm not sayin that makes it true but I don't think anyone feared Nash like that. He couldn't affect the game on both ends. Matter fact I remember all good point guards dropping career highs on him.
They lost that game Amare was suspended for by a couple points, they were evenly matched with the spurs but that ? suspension changed the whole series, if they got through the Spurs they would of handled Utah and Cleveland, not saying they would have but a game 7 would of been on their home floor -
C'mon bruh -
nahhhh....He's number 4 of all times on my list
1) Magic Johnson
2) Isaiah Thomas
3) Oscar Roberson
4) John Stockton -
Nah, Stockton is not the greatest PG of All Time
That would be Earvin Magic Johnson -
just saw a stat that stockton never grabbed more than 9 rebounds in a game.
j-kidd is a better PG than stockton. j-kidd in his prime would get the rebound and get that fast break started for an easy bucket. only other PG who could do that was magic
1.magic
2.zeke
3.oscar
4.j-kidd
5.stockton -
He is my 2/3 because I consider Oscar a 2 guard. Magic is number one but he was a freak. There is more than scoring in basketball. Kidd and Nash became scoring liabilities. He proved to be more durable than Zeke too but I like Zekes game more

nahhhh....Still aint forgave Stockton for what he did to my 96 Houston Rockets of Clyde, Barkley, and Hakeem The Dream.
Rockets vs Bulls woulda been epic that year. -
think u mean 97.
96 Seattle made it to the west -
nahhhh....Man Rockets vs Bulls would have been epic and silenced the critics on those two championships the Rockets have.

4 shoMan Rockets vs Bulls would have been epic and silenced the critics on those two championships the Rockets have.
Would have been a nice finals.....I saw a couple of regular season games with jordan/hakeem on youtube....Hakeem abused the bulls centers and rodman.... shake/bake on Longley....lol
But you got the GOAT jordan....Bulls would win in 6 games...... -
nahhhh....Magic Oscar Robertson, Zeke, Kidd, Peyton>>>> Stockton. with that said he was a great player
-
nahhhh....hell no Nash aint better than Stockton... Stockton attempted to play defense
-
-
Don't make me chooseMagic Oscar Robertson, Zeke, Kidd, Peyton>>>> Stockton. with that said he was a great player
Gary Payton had some great years but c'mon that's a stretch
-
nahhhh....
He had the whole 90s that's more than a few years and he got a ring -
as much as i liked the glove i would still pick Johnny over him
-
nahhhh....I take Nash in his prime, pure point guard and made a lot of ? ass players rich men, Stockton had Malone and though he helped make Malone great, Malone is still Malone..Nash has Tim Thomas amare (suspension and injury might be why they never won)
Stockton had better D, but if you actually watched Nash it wasn't that he was bad at D he just played to avoid fouls etc because with him in foul trouble his teams were garbage -
nahhhh....Can't count magic because his physical stature makes it not fair, and from a skill set aspect he wasn't as dynamic. Great but also had Kareem and bad D and shaky jumper.
Nash got that 90-50-40 ? like 3-4 times...that's amazing -
nahhhh....MJ vs Dream would've been a powerful NBA Finals match up & 2 of my favorite players ever but I'm rolling with Jordan in game 6. That ? ain't finna lose on the big stage
