Curry already surpassed him after he won his first NBA title in 2015. And it's no longer a close comparison after Curry won his first finals MVP in 2022.


Curry is the 2nd best point guard after Magic Johnson.

Stockton is the better pure PG, but Curry is #3 behind Magic and Oscar

Stockton 1st in Assists
Curry 46th in Assists

Stockton 1st in Steals
Curry 55th in Steals

Stockton 3rd in Value over Replacement
Curry 24th in Value over Replacement

Stockton is 8th in OWS
Curry is 30th in OWS

I'm fine with people saying Curry is better than Stockton...he's the best shooter of all-time but basketball isn't just shooting and Stockton is an all-time great.

Just goes to show how useless some of these stats are. Stockton was great, but would the Jazz really drop off harder with and average replacement than the Warriors without Curry? Ofc Stockton will have a lot of points contributed for his teams over his career when his partner is the perfect roll man.

the perfect roll man from the perfect passer. Stockton would have thrived elsewhere. One of the reasons they got better in the late 90's was because it wasn't just Stockton to Malone but Horny and an improved Malone could pass the ball and make plays too. Portland wanted Stockton. He might have had even a better career with that roster

They're two different players.

Stockton is the best or second best pure point guard of all time.

Curry is, by far, the best combo guard of all time. Can't really compare someone who plays a lot off ball to someone who runs the offense.

I do like Curry and he should be getting a lot more credit in GOAT discussions, we have to talk close to top 10 all time now, with all his rings. He's also beaten Lebron several times and some people mistakenly put Lebron in the top 10.

Not saying he wasn't the perfect passer. He was in that club for sure. Just saying a less talented team could've lowered his stats massively. Imagine the top scorer of his team being a Corey Maggette type.

Yeah I just said the Jazz were better when Horny and Malone were passing the ball as well. He would have had more team success with Portland. Maybe scored more? Portland supposedly wanted to draft him so the Jazz did thinking they could trade him to the Blazers. I'd guess it took one practice to squash that notion. First time I saw him with the Jazz I thought they should have traded Ricky Green who was one of the best pgs in the league. He was that good

Not talking about the Jazz' performance, but Stockton's perception being ofc dependent on the receivers of his passes. Atleast when it comes to stats. He wouldn't have been a lesser player if the g2g of his team was a triple threat, post or iso scorer, but alot of people who didn't see him play would think differently of him nowadays.

Well that's way before my time. So the Blazers would've had a better version of the already very very good Terry Porter? Pretty sure that would've meant championships.

You can't even grasp the essence of my post to debunk your shit agenda to push Lebron and nothing else that's on your mind.

You think you put a pure point guard like Stockton on a team with off ball maestro Klay and a guy like KD who's equally as able off ball as on tt and isos and your mancrush would suddenly win? You think this point in a way somehow helps your agenda that the 90s competition is ass and the 2010s isn't?

The same boring repeated posts about the same 3 players you attack? Those posts aren't even original in any way. The smarter Lebron trolls made them for years and failed, because you can't compare Stockton's impact in a non shooting based league against someone like Curry who's basically a scorer first and second in a league that guns for high point games. What's your point? That an off ball shooter scores more in a 110ppg league than a pass first pg in a 90ppg league? Really, that's your evidence for your agenda?

There's room for pro Lebron takes over Jordan, but Stockton scoring less than Curry isn't one of those takes.

True the NBA was watered down, because some scrubs along with JR Rider, Tom Gugliotta, Damon Stoudamire and Bryant Reeves played on those expansion teams, while the Heat, Magic and Hornets were already doing well in the 90s.

Of course they did, but you think Jerry Sloan would've allowed for Curry to go off for 16 3pt attempts in a league that took like 5 3pta?

I'm not saying that Curry couldn't have been a star. I'm one of the people that says great talent adapts and finds the notion that you can't slide the bigs of past years or the mid range heavy players just as stupid as saying Curry, Lebron et al couldn't survive back then.

What I'm saying is that you can't judge by Curry's skillset in today's league how he would've fared in the 1998 playoffs. LBJ23 does this. He basically says Curry scoring around 30 in 202x means he would've done exactly that in the 90s. Who says Stockton couldn't be a 20/15/6/3spg guy on the 2015 onwards Warriors then? These assumptions to prove a stupid agenda are futile when nobody can really compare either era or project the stats at hand.

That wasn't my point about Curry. Quite the opposite. I think I made it obvious that I think the Warriors are better with Curry than they would be with Stockton or a stocktonesque Curry.

What I do think is that Curry by himself sliding in for Stockton in a slow 90s Utah offense under Jerry Sloan wouldn't be the same difference maker as he is on the modern Warriors and thus it's a pretty bad argument to make to downplay 90s competition.

Correct. How are you a threat when you don't take advantage of your efficiency?
Stockton had eleven 30+ point games in his career (and 2 more in the playoffs.) Only once did he shoot under 50% in those games which was 47%.

the Jazz were the best offense in the league when they went to the finals. He was a huge part of it. Sloan certainly was out coached in the finals and held the Jazz back.

Stockton could shoot and defend which makes him a lot easier to move from era to era and team to team.

when Stockton came into the league almost everyone was a pass first pg now almost no one is. Most of the ones that are have come from Spain. There'd been a few scoring pg's before that but I'd say Isiah really was the prototype of what was to come. So yes Curry is a pg

Is that supposed to be more impressive than what Curry has done?

Bringing college and Olympics into the discussion? Okay Oscar went to the Final Four twice which is ostensibly a better showing than Steph's single Elite Eight appearance but Oscar's team won the championship the succeeding two years after he had left. Seems like Oscar was on a strong team but still didn't win. Meanwhile Curry was carrying Davidson.

Oscar won a ring after leaving a terrible team? Curry turned a terrible team around and made it into a juggernaut. Then when that team fell apart he helped rebuild it again and won again.

Curry is a 2-time scoring champion. Oscar was maybe once.

Curry has multiple seasons with a TS% above 65% as a guard. You're not going to find many if any who can combine the scoring volume and scoring efficiency that Curry does.

Is that supposed to be more impressive than what Curry has done?

Bringing college and Olympics into the discussion?

Lol thank you for the effort sir. But chef actually needed klay to be relevant in the playoffs. Even lost b2b in the play-ins without him two years ago.

And Oscar needed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Dandridge during an expansion era to get a ring.

Give Stockton Green, Durant and Klay and I think he fares pretty well himself. Curry, Malone and Sloan might not have even made a finals

No
