Mark Jackson Just Can't Let It GO

I am only 23 so I never saw him play in his prime but I have seen plenty of games since he retired to have an opinion.
 
Ya maybe you guys are right. When I think of Stockton I just never really think "one of the greatest shooters ever". Looking at the numbers though I guess I should start thinking that.

Random question though. Was Stockton ever criticized for not shooting enough in the same way Mavs fans criticize Calderon? Stockton only took 1.5 threes per game and I realize the game has changed but that still seems a bit low for such a great shooter.

Yes. I would take it further by saying I'd rather have Stockton shooting in clutch than Malone. Malone often stank when the game mattered most.
 
Thanks for the link Colton. I just got it off of Hoopshype so I just copied and pasted.

And some stats...

Mark Jackson's career was hi-lighted by his single and only appearance in an all star game. In 1989 he had four assists in 16 minutes off the bench. The east lost by 9. Stockton had 17 assists for the west, the west won.

Did you New York traded him away. Twice.

Denver nuggets acquired him by trade twice, and promptly waived him before the season started on his second go around with them.

When Stockton was first drafted, he couldn't shoot a lick. He was never a pure shooter, but he became very efficient with a learned jump shot. He worked hard to be a good shooter. Oh yea, Mark Jackson is an idiot.

Good info. The guy sounds really sleazy...like Don King level sleazy.
