I was a die hard Chicago Bulls fan and watched (with respect) John Stockton play. It always amazed me how much power he had against the Bulls in such a small package. I admired his precision teamwork with Malone. I found myself becoming a fan of the Jazz because of his play.
Its amazing that he crossed over Jordan a few times and took it to the hole on him. Stockton might be the smartest player ever. And his toughness. That's what made him legend.
This is the man I modeled my point skills after. He was the first truly unselfish point guard I ever fell in love with watching. Him and Magic man, special times.
You know Reggie would have tremendous respect for John. He too was scrappy, never backed down and irritated foes as well. And you would LOVE to each either on your team. And they didn't whine about physical play, either one of them.
When John Stockton says there is something wrong and missing from the modern game, you better believe it, he knows what he is talking about and can appreciate tough basketball in comparison to the easy mode game they play nowadays
Any era. All of the greatest players of all time could kill in any era. The from Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Bird, Iverson,Jordan, Duncan, Lebron, Shaq, Magic and the list goes on. They are just great
Jon Luci growing up jordan was my favorite player .. and Stockton was 2nd. .. when Jason white chocolate Williams came in the league, it was crazy .. everyone was talking about him.. the nba was back, his jerseys were #1 in sales .. ESPN would do highlights of him every night .. the first time i saw him play vs Stockton., i think It was the 2nd time they ever played .. I was thinking like shit., he’s going to kill Stockton .. but I was wrong .. Stockton locked him down .. and was running circles around him .. it was crazy how bad it was .. Stockton should go down as the player who did the most, with less, in nba history ..
Met JS in 1984 at a promo. Wish I would've kept the autograph. Unimpressed and surprised at his size and manner. Soon we all in SLC knew his heart and toughness. History says the rest. Coach Stockton in the NBA would make it a better league. Plus I'd just like to see him competing again. What fun and excitement it would be. The 'pastey gangsta' would live again!
John Stockton looks like a middle age white man govenor or your dentist you would never think oh best defensive point gaurd of his time and was a beast on the court and could shut down jordan! Lol i probably still wouldent reconize john in a suit i think he was my doctor or something lol
Frank Mackenzie imagine if Dominique Wilkins didn’t force his way out of Utah when they drafted him in 82’. People forget the Jazz drafted him, and then he forced a trade to Atlanta where Utah got next to nothing for him. Wilkins was drafted in 82, Stockton drafted in 84, and Malone in 85, talk about a missed opportunity, could of been a dynasty. Sad thing is not one of them ever won a ring, and if Wilkins would of stayed with the Jazz there is no doubt in my mind they would of won several titles.
Cleric L8....... hindsight is 20/20!! The franchise with the biggest record of missed opportunities (to me) is Portland!! Passed up on Jordan and Durant!!!!
I don't the he was labeled dirty because he fought through pick in rolls. I think he was labeled dirty because he did all kinds of dirty shit to the players he played against. Arm/body/uniform grabs, leg trips and kicks, elbows in the back and sides of the body. It was endless. Hell, he was on the receiving end of one of the biggest holds ever when the Jazz beat Rockets in game 6. The reason Stockton was wide open with no Rocket within 10 foot is because Malone grabbed a Rocket and never let him go.
I love listening to Stockton talk. He's so modest and humble, more than anything he's respectful. The game needs more guys like him.
or do you mean, don’t have “these people” in the league?
Good luck.

I miss good basketball.
🏀 John Stockton made everyone who he played with better and more effective, and that's not even debatable.
Stockton most steals, most assist. Records that will never be broken..
@Barry White that's true, however it most likely won't be 1 guy who breaks both, if it ever happens.
@@markbrinton6790 however, however, also however and however
@@daniellyznicki7277 wow, great insight. Didn't your mom tell you no internet past 11 PM? Get to bed you dolt.

Reggie is excellent in this role...proper levels of both confidence, respect, and knowledge.
I really want him to have a podcast. He's great. Simple questions and let's ppl answer
John Stockton thank you for being just awesome to watch for 2 decades!!
Stockton was a great player
No doubt
He is Point Great
And..... in other news, gravity works, the sun rises in the east and water is wet!!! 🤦♂️

Reggie is one of the best analysts in sports. His Jumpshot was something amazing to behold.

' 92 Dream team. There will never be another. Magic, Bird and Jordan on the same team.
The 3 Greatest players ever

Mick A well said
Larry bird said "I think I'm gonna have 43 tonight" lmaooooo
And scores 43. LOL
My baby!!! My #1 baby!!! My little cutie John!!! Will ALWAYS be my #1 point guard.. Plus he is so so so cute & fine!!!
What?
LB was such a BOSS
One of THE BEST point guards to ever play.
John Stockton is underrated amongst point guards.
When John Stockton says there is something wrong and missing from the modern game, you better believe it, he knows what he is talking about and can appreciate tough basketball in comparison to the easy mode game they play nowadays
john was dirty
not a lot floor generals in this era cp3 and rondo are the only ones who come to mind
2in10se get over yourself.i have an opinion on john stockton and there it is.bitch ass didnt win any chips anyway
i agree we need someone like Stockton in the modern game. Stockton was the best pg for a reason and its hard to find a pg like him
The NBA is now pick up basketball. Point guard means you have the ball most of the time. No center, weak post.
“Man Reggie I hate to do this to you” hilarious
How I would love to see Stockton play in the modern NBA today!
You basically do with Chris Paul
Chris Webber commented that J Stockton was busting their ass every game
Prime Stockton would be a beast today!
Any era. All of the greatest players of all time could kill in any era. The from Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Bird, Iverson,Jordan, Duncan, Lebron, Shaq, Magic and the list goes on. They are just great
Stockton prime was his whole career.
all-time greats.
To me, the craziest stat in all sports, is a tiny white guy is the all time leader in steals and assists in basketball history
Jon Luci growing up jordan was my favorite player ..
and Stockton was 2nd. ..
when Jason white chocolate Williams came in the league, it was crazy .. everyone was talking about him.. the nba was back, his jerseys were #1 in sales .. ESPN would do highlights of him every night ..
the first time i saw him play vs Stockton., i think It was the 2nd time they ever played ..
I was thinking like shit., he’s going to kill Stockton ..
but I was wrong ..
Stockton locked him down .. and was running circles around him .. it was crazy how bad it was ..
Stockton should go down as the player who did the most, with less, in nba history ..
@@dayra6425 John Stockton would run guys down with his right hand ONLY, what a monster
Damn Reggie is better than Dan
1:46 only John Stockton and Bird could fit into that picture
I agree with JS, It is less of a game today than it was then.
i miss the physical NBA, where breathing on a guy was not a foul.
Stockton was is total badass .Many players and ex players downplay him.No matters he was one of the best!
Best of Best. Iconic Team. My favorite was Bird and Drexler. 👍👍

Great show
Reggie shoulda teamed up with Stockton and Malone.... Coulda been sweet
Wow!
awesome
Two cool cats and great stars!
There is something missing in today's game, for sure.
LB. “Ithink I’m gonna have 43 tonight”. what a BOSS
Just behold that DT1 lineup.
Utah Jazz Mt. Rushmore: Stockton, Malone, Sloan and Hot Rod Hundley. If you go players only: Stockton, Malone, Adrian Dantley and Darrel Griffith
Pete Maravich over Darell
@@stephensandin451 Pete only played a few games in Utah before being traded, doesn't stack up to Griffith's resume
I would have to go with Larry over Reggie for the 3 point contest too lolm
John Stockton looks like a middle age white man govenor or your dentist you would never think oh best defensive point gaurd of his time and was a beast on the court and could shut down jordan! Lol i probably still wouldent reconize john in a suit i think he was my doctor or something lol

he sounds like Chris "Captain America" Evans
The game has changed so much.
The modern nba is soft and garbage
Reggie is much nicer than Patrick
Patrick is boring
Agreed!! Patrick has that envious I couldn’t do it way about him. Reggie is a smooth interviewer and just enough humor.
If only dominique wilkins played for utah..... I heard he refused to play because utah is a small nba team
australia almost beat usa a couple days ago
Hoops2018 bunch of inmates.
Yeah they did a few weeks back
Imagine is Jordan went to Utah as a free agent....
Frank Mackenzie imagine if Dominique Wilkins didn’t force his way out of Utah when they drafted him in 82’. People forget the Jazz drafted him, and then he forced a trade to Atlanta where Utah got next to nothing for him. Wilkins was drafted in 82, Stockton drafted in 84, and Malone in 85, talk about a missed opportunity, could of been a dynasty. Sad thing is not one of them ever won a ring, and if Wilkins would of stayed with the Jazz there is no doubt in my mind they would of won several titles.
Dominique tried to join jazz in 98
Joe Cook.... haha!! Too little to late!!
Cleric L8....... hindsight is 20/20!! The franchise with the biggest record of missed opportunities (to me) is Portland!! Passed up on Jordan and Durant!!!!
6:56 it is missing something. Stockton is being too nice.
Nothing like a good pass no1 else on floor seen.
Steph Curry would be Dell Curry if he played in the 80s-90s
I bet Cheryl would've hosted the show better.
I don't the he was labeled dirty because he fought through pick in rolls.
I think he was labeled dirty because he did all kinds of dirty shit to the players he played against.
Arm/body/uniform grabs, leg trips and kicks, elbows in the back and sides of the body. It was endless.
Hell, he was on the receiving end of one of the biggest holds ever when the Jazz beat Rockets in game 6. The reason Stockton was wide open with no Rocket within 10 foot is because Malone grabbed a Rocket and never let him go.
Let's be honest here, Stockton was a dirty player. It's just that at the time, dirty is the norm. Every team has at least one of them.
You obviously didn't grow up watching basketball in the 80's-90's. Stockton was nowhere near "dirty."
You are an idiot who clearly does not understand basketball...in the Stockton era basketball was many times more physical than it is today
basketball in the 80's-90's was real physical and tough, nothing like today and the prima donnas
MsSparklesNGlitter Calling someone an idiot when they have a different opinion. Classy.
Seriously..idiot. Dirty? Please. Go set a pick on Olajuwon or Ewing. Then tell me he was dirty. Educate yourself before you say dumb comments
