Documentary on the legendary John Stockton. Content originally aired on KJZZ 14, however I cannot find this on sale anywhere nor can I find it available in an official capacity. - Sport
As a Houstonian I grew up as a Rockets fan during Olajuwon era, but the second team I respected the most is the Stockton/Malone’s Jazz team. I really wish they had won a championship. They were such a great team. I love John’s humility and hard work ethic.
Stock, Malone, Barkley deserved it.
Houston were something else altogether at the time, Robert Horry, Olajawon, Sam Cassel, whoop, the names just kept coming...
When I first met John Stockton at a local college game where he was cheering for his nephew playing against the Lewis Clark State Warriors I knew him as a 2nd cousin once removed that everyone in my family had previously met before me. I introduced myself and told him who my mom was whom he met a few times before. He then told me that aside from being my 2nd cousin once removed that he knew my Dad's sister and her husband who would visit his mom and Dad in spokane one week every summer as he was growing up and until the day she (my dad's sister) passed. He also told me that his grandmother and my grandmother from my mom's side were good friends growing up and he actually knew more about me and my family than I did about him outside of basketball. Such a cool and down to earth guy and I'm blown away that had I never met him He would have known who I was by name anyway. He is still very connected to many other closely related people I grew up with. Very small town down to earth kind of guy who is as humble and approachable as anyone I've ever met. He still sees and keeps tabs on people from both sides of my immediate family in Spokane volunteering for the local food bank and running basketball camps for kids and of course Spokane's (his current home and childhood home is in Spokane) annual 3 on 3 tournament each year and asks about me and my family when seeing our other mutual relatives there. Again, such an amazing and humble guy. Blows my mind. Also, His parents owned "Jack and Dan's Tavern" in Spokane valley from 1961 until 2006 when Jack retired. Still the best place to watch a Gonzaga game or Jazz game where you'll likely run into friends and family of John Stockton if not John himself, if you ever get the chance to visit.
I had no idea of the depth of the relationship between John Stockton and Karl Malone. Karl's eloquence and honesty about his long time friend is at once both moving and uplifting. Well done Karl Malone.
I was so happy when Stockton hit that jumper. When I watch it now I get teary eyed. Damn I’m getting old. The Jazz always punched above their weight.
I was today years old when I found out there was a documentary on John Stockton. Thank you for this.
Jeff hornacek is so fine!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
#Stocktonisalegend he's so underrated and I miss the Stockton days! 😢😢
#1 assists
#1 steals
GOAT PG
Amen.
nobody will pass him... not in our lifetime
Greatest ever. Us utah jazz fans are so lucky to have had like 19 years of best point guard ever, most assists and steals, and best power forward ever, 2nd all time scoring.
A black kid from the south, and a white kid from the northwest happened to team up in the middle. Salt lake city, utah. They represented us, tried for us. We loved them and they loved us.
That's why they have statues outside our arena, and why we named the streets that intersect our arena are named after them.
The most underrated player...
And almost 20k points... goat
"I can't give them all I can because John won't be there..." probably the best way to describe how John Stockton affected the Jazz whenever he was on the floor.
Yeah he's #1 in assists and steals but my favorite stat is that he played every game of the season in 17 years of his 19 year career. That's unheard of
He had microfracture knee surgery at 35 just 6 weeks before the season started. This surgery ended the careers of so many great athletes, like Terrell Davis, Penny Hardaway, Chris Webber etc. He missed the first 18 games of that season, then played every single game for the next 6 years before retiring. The dude is literally Wolverine.
John Stockton forever. I studied in Utah just because l loved The Jazz so much.
Love from Japan. Btw after all years Karls English is hard for me to get. 😆 not used to the southern.
I always watch these when they pop up on my CZcams. I get all weepy because I was a utah kid in the 80s and 90s.
Bob Cousy, Pat Riley, Walt "Clyde" Frazier, Calvin Murphy, Earvin "magic" Johnson, Kenny Smith, Isaiah Thomas, Jason Kidd, and Steve Nash. Stockton never had to talk about himself. But look at the people who respect him and speak in reverence about him and for him. A very beautiful thing.
One of the best point guards who knew the position and made the sport worth watching!!!
Reality is there r only 5 stats that matter in basketball Points , Assists , Rebounds , Steals , Blocks ...JS is number 1 in 2 of them in NBA history and no one in our lifetime will ever beat that.
Loved that backcourt. Hornacek was no slouch. And the 2 in combination was like a demonstration in basketball skills and floor IQ...
Hornacek was one of the best catch and shoot players of the 90s.
They can never be another John Stockton in this today basketball generation again.
There's too many cocky, soft thugs today.
I have a feeling John still has 80% of his NBA earnings.
Sounds about right
Facts..
Yep. I mean, him and Hornacek were in a friggin minivan 🤣 I don't doubt that he has him a decent house, a nice car & truck, and a very nice retirement fund to spoil the HELL out of his grandkids 🙏❤️
Anyone seen how his daughter plays?
More heart at 5'8" than a 6'6" center.
38:43
The greatest point guard ever
Seth Kasso I thought so too, until I realized the man COULD NOT DRIBBLE WITH HIS LEFT HAND. Watch The Nba Storytellers video about Stockton.
Completely silly... he went by Jordan using his left hand... watch all the videos and not a silly compilation of cherry-picking by that guy, needing to make nonsense up to garner views.
That video was stupid as hell, I'm with Greg....complete nonsense.
+Dre Jones That was the joke, genius. He smoked Jordan dribbling with his left hand.
*JOHN STOCKTON HAD NO LEFT HAND*
He was the reason why I had to have no.12 on my jersey when I was in my highschool ball team.
John is so fucking fine!!! He is so fucking cute!!!!
Telly Hudson wat bitch
I was a forward and had 32
Wilt said if he was starting a team he would start with Stockton
Fucking right he said that
Ive seen the video of Wilt saying it its on CZcams
Because Russell had Cousy and much success.I guess Wilt figured if I had the same type of PG, I would have the same team accolades as Russell
Really good interview here with John Stockton who rarely does them. The interview starts at the 6:01 mark.
John discusses his short shorts (6:16), the 97-98 season (7:33), dream team (10:56), his durability (9:40), Chris webber remarks on toughness (12:08), karl malone (14:40), missed shot vs. Bulls (16:48), Tim Donaghy scandal (21:50), a retirement that caught some off guard (28:38).

So would I
Isiah Thomas and John Stockton had a great relationship.John saw Isiah play at a tournament while they were in H.S.John was AMAZED at how good Isiah was and realized he had a long way to go if he was gonna be a top level player.The respect continued all the way to Isiah walking John up to the stage for his HOF induction.The person you choose to walk you up is a HUGE honor.That alone tells you what John thinks of Isiah and John probably knows he owes alot to Isiah making him the player he was just from the 1st time he watched Isiah play.
I am not a basketball fan, its not a big sport in my country, but i am a fan of greatness.
Thank you for this upload.
I'll never forget when he hit that shot against Houston!
Aaron Racer John Stockton sends the Utah Jazz to the NBA FINALS!!!!
Me neither😢...but could you imagine a Rockets/Bulls finals
That's why he's my number #1 baby... I had his t-shirt when I was 14/15... He is so so so CUTE!!
My gosh he is so fine!!!!
John is an Aries ♈!!!! Aries is extremely extremely extremely competitive!!!! He's a fire sign... Very passionate
Grew up in Chicagoland and was a teen for the best years of our lives as basketball fans - with our Bulls. Have to say, the only times i really thought we might lose in the playoffs was Reggie's Pacers and the Stockton-Malone Jazz. Despite all we'd seen of MJ and how tenacious he was in the finals, that Jazz team really had us doubting ... especially that second appearance. Really respected that team.
I'm a number #32 man to my core, but #12 is the GOAT at his position. Stock is that cat who nobody wanted on thier team, but shred you alive and take his kid's out for ice cream after the fact.
#12 hands down.
Karl is an underrated all-time player too.
The rebound and pass at 1hour 6mins & 6 secs! what a PLAY!!
What's this?? My all-time favorite player forever? Yes, please. Thank you.
promeitheus amen. Ditto!
If your the greatest PG ever your automatically in the discussion for greatest player ever and Stockton should be considered for that
@Stephen Forfer Goodrich was good player but we talking about the goat .
Stockton averaged 13 points per gm
However he didnt start till he was 25 so all them mins lost plus he played till he was 41 so played 5 years beyond his prime so if he was a starter from rookie and retired at 38 his average wudda been around 18-20 plus 50% shooting
I rather Stockton shooting 50% 15 points than Iverson getting 35 points on 40% shooting
Stockton is not the goat became he never won a ring but he remains the greatest basketball player ive ever seen
@Stephen Forfer hard to judge guards of the 60s n 70s b4 the 3 point shot it was really a different gm
John contributed, with shots and assists, more than 50,000 points
Thank you for this gem 💎
That sculptor on the ladder has a gorgeous ass!!!😛😛😛😛
What ppl don't realize.To be the all time leader in steals you also have to THINK like a PG on the defensive end.You look at the passing angles the passer has and determine his options and anticipate where the ball is going so you're thinking one step of the passer and receiver.
yeah there is no doubt i had not ever seen someone gaurd and anticipate the passing lanes as good as JS.
I used to tell people ..he didnt gaurd his man really ..he gaurded the entire opposing team.
The best pg to ever play the game!
Trashcal Killa lmao there’s a guy that goes by the name Magic 🤣🤣
To be fair magic had james worthy and Kareem. Stockton had malone and hornacek but when the Jazz were best they had to play the bulls. Magic had to go through the celtics. Stockton magic kidd and isiah r the best imo
@@nof6015 magic is the best player than played the pg position but stockton is the best pg.
We can say Magic is the best PG of all time, but he was a freak of nature at 6'9" able to look over defenders.PURE PGs ( 6'4" and under/ pass first) Stockton slightly over Isiah ( because he was more offensive minded).But you have Oscar, JKidd( PURE),Gary Payton, Bob Cousy, Tiny Archibald ( forgotten),Mark Price, Walt Frazier and the MOST UNDERRATED PG OF ALL TIME Maurice Cheeks.
@@missayawk my point exactly he was six nine Stockton was only six one.
not gonna lie don't have time for a video atm but still giving it a like an a comment lol best Pure Point in history
John Stockton, my all time favorite basketball player. Such a class act.
Thanks for the memorable videos man😎👍🤙🇵🇼
Glad I saw this. Thanks for posting it
the Goat
Love this man. #StocktonForever
Para mí siempre será el mejor de todos los tiempos!!
Thanks for the memories.
This was special. I was so lucky to watch this era of basketball.
One of the best of all of mankind....absolute class act that absorbs nothing without including the others who played around him.
Tenacity, humility, and class. Players like him and David Robinson come to mind as role models to be lifted up. God had to make John Stockton a bit shorter and a bit lighter to keep things fair on the court.
Two greatest PG Magic and Stockton.
Utah always has the toughest players Stock and Mailman and now Joe Ingles
John Stockton and Karl Malone playing basketball together is the very best basketball there is
IMHO the GOAT of PGs!
Goat
I think yall are missing the deeper picture here ..
Listening to John and Karl speak about thier connection ..even before they were together in Utah .. i realize that they had what is called a soul bond.
They were soul brothers.
Back in 1997-1998 , everybody like Michael Jordan . I was the only one like Stockton .
I liked Stock too... I rooted for him n Karl.
I always rooted for John.Number one he was humble, always professional,in shape, played hard,played smart.Along with Maurice Cheeks ( SO UNDERRATED) are my 2 favorite PGs.
Me also
I was also rooting for Utah back then
I think all die hard hoop fans respected #12
I really wish Karl Malone was a better father. He was such a great player and seems so personable. It just tarnishes his legacy and his kids childhoods.
No one is perfect. Fatherhood is not for everyone.
Walks in Looking like an accountant
And says how may assist you sir?
Then steels all your shit.
My all time fav player
My number 1 baby!!! My john Stockton!!!! Can't get his Jersey for nothing
Telly Hudson he’s my goat
Awesome!
@@Shepo666 he 7 all time to me. Wilt is my GOAT
@@silk3142 I can see that respect to wilt
The greatest playmaker of Utah Jazz has ever been contributed
My favorite!
Respect
Find someone who loves you as much as Karl Malone loves John Stockton.
This is gold.
One great asset for John's great passing, ball control was his big hands.
Stockton > Magic
even Magic agrees with that!!
Whatever you’re on I need 🤣🤣
No Eric
@@M1Anut assists, steals, longevity.....
John was an Aries ♈!!!!!!!.... The Ram Enough said...
Love me some Stockton
John is an inspiration.
When Jordan has the ball, he's dangerous. When Stockton has the ball, he makes the team a danger.
The GOAT PG
Mark Eaton looks like a giant Steve Buscemi in mr. deeds lol
Damn those things are fast lol
# 1 in character jp
I feel like John would've been one of those great military officers that was drafted as a teacher to WW2. Kinda like Tom Hanks on Saving Private Ryan but more real life like the hundreds & thousands that did it for real and the many that were posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
Pistol Pete and Jordan both have retired and come back as different players according to insiders.
John Stockton. God bless!
Stickton anf Malone. My go to guyd in nba jam TE.
goat
John is the legend
If he is in his prime today...
He would be a 15-5-18 player
Most. Consistent. Point. Ever.
ストックトンが史上最高のポイントガードに間違いない！
The greatest player pound for pound under 6ft 2in
I thought Alan Titchmarsh was presenting a John Stockton Documentary at first
The Best White and Black Man Combo in NBA History, Hands down John Stockton and Karl Malone
respect the legendary best pure point guard ever JHONNY STOCK!!! he would have back to back chips if Mike wasnt born...
As quiet a person as there ever was in professional sport.
Quieter even, when it was time to stand up and say,
"I don't deserve this spot over the reigning back2back
Champion; Isaiah Thomas. "
If Stockton had a fault as a basketball player, it was probably that he was a bit too unselfish. I remember in the finals against the Bulls and MJ, Stockton was taking over, wasn't missing a shot, and then he started passing to his teammates and it wound up costing them the game. I believe that they would of had a good chance of beating the Bulls, if Stockton had been looking to score more. Watch the games and judge for yourself. And the one year that they were in the finals, after Barkley had nearly broken Johns back, it was about 4 games into the finals before he was back in shape and playing like his old self.
Yes thats true .
I started seeing that in about 1993 and it increased after that.
Sometimes he should have continued scoring himself. (..and the Jazz fg% would have been even better o.o eventhough they normally lead the league in % already)
That can be a hard line to define sometimes ..no matter the player.
“They are not thaaaat good” lmao
Absolurely forever stockton....flutie equivalent. Best pg.....passing puts him there amazing human being
Is that LOTR music??? 1:07:40
1:48:40 he was trying to tell you something.
They just dont have the guts tonsay it outright apparently.
They put the Music of the Lord of the Rings!... for the King of pick and Roll. 😊
Where was Sloan for this?
Now I want to know what play 55 is 1:40:36
Mark Eaton needs a podcast.He looks real comfortable with a mic in his hand.
They are one of the top Duels of long time and then I can think of Michael I can think of Western Barrel on I can think the Pick 3 in Boston Paris and mikal as far as been together a long time I really can't think about you more than you know
What the hell is the budget for these seats
*JOHN STOCKTON HAD NO LEFT HAND*
czcams.com/video/hQq_miApSzs/video.html
Never missed playoffs
Off topic, but Derrick, you look like some I met almost 40 years ago named Anziano Trujillo...
Stockton and isaiah thomas are the best point guards in the history of basketball not only in nba. Stockton defines as a pure point guard. Thomas a point guard and a scorer.
The best PG not to win a title. Blame the Bulls especially Dennis Rodman and Luc Longley
Sad to see Stock and Mailman not winning a Chip, It's MJ and Scottie's fault.
No it is Dick Bavetta's fault. He waived off Eisley 3 pointer in game 6 of 97-98 finals and let in Harper's 2 pointer . And did not give offensive foul against MJ when he pushed off Byron Russel.
I'd like to see Stockton to wilt
Don't say Statute of limitations to Malone, he gets real nervous
John Stockton was so good Lord Of The Rings stole the music theme from his documentary.
"it's stockton mf'er" - nick and nate diaz 🤣
Why are they talking about him like he passed away or something?
I blame Russell for the jazz not winning the championship
He just could not guard MJ
Tellem Large Marge Sent You It’s ok, nobody could.
I blame Rodman, the only player that could effectively handle Malone.
