Their scoring is pretty similar. Stockton put up higher assist number and was the much better defender. Besides, Nash was helped a lot by the rule change.

I would say they're pretty equal, with Stockton being great offensively with the better defense and Nash leading some of the best offenses the NBA has ever seen.

if they Stockton's team (jazz) vs Nash's team (any)

i will expect Nash be held out of the court bleeding.

john stockton is better offensively and defensively

the max apg in a season is stocktons

and the max spg is stocktons

stockton 17 ppg 14 apg 2.9 steals 3 turn overs

nash 18 ppg 11 apg .8 steals 3.8 turnovers best season

now you tell me whose better?

stockton went to the finals did nash ever get get there? no , if stockton had the 3rd and 4th and 5th players nash did , they may have beaten the bulls... maybe not....

stockton went further with a worse team.....nash had marion amare joe johnson quentin richardson jim jackson

stockton had malone and ostertag and hornaceck

thats why malones stats are better then amares also

malone was being spoonfed

NinjaSeal · 03-12-2012, 08:20 AM

the extra apg by stockton over nash result in why malone has more points then amare

so if you said nash...you dont know basketball
