The John Stockton Thread

[MHSL82]

Is this cheesy? Or not? On a card, it says "It's clear the Jazz needed no 'assist-ance' to 'steal' John Stockton in the first round of the 1984 NBA draft."

I don’t know, but I’ve never heard that before. So I’m OK with it.

@MHSL82, why didn't you tell me Stockton had the 2nd highest FG% by a guard in NBA history, during a season?

I think you'll like how these mention Stockton's shooting.

I told you that year. Sure, I wasn’t very old and we didn’t have internet, but you weren’t listening or you forgot.

Stock had a higher career FG% than Jordan, Pippen, Olajuwon, and Duncan, among others.

He had the same career FG% as Hornacek and 0.1% less than Malone (51.6 to 51.5)

John Stockton is underrated and ignored by modern young fans because his look and his skin color.

Wow.

I really like the 2nd card's words because it foreshadows one of eventual playoffs game winners.

Is he doing a between the legs pass in this pic?

Also, why didn't you tell me the steals race came down to the final day? Must have been exciting.

Also some of these Fleer cards have REB+AST per 48 minutes. Kind of a unique stat.
