Re: Gary Payton says Stockton was harder to guard than the GOAT
i agree with gp actually.Jordan maybe be the GOAT but you could get him mad.and when some1 is angry he s bound to do stupid decisions
Stockton was a cold blooded bastard.He was a great dirty defender and he was so calm.I remember Webber i think on open court said that he threw down Stockton on purpose and he didn t even blink.What a boss

Payton didn't even guard Jordan in the first two games the Sonics lost in the finals. He was defending Pippen.

You must be thinking about Kobe, doe. We talking about MJ here. No one, not even GP, could get in his head. You can pull that shit with Kobe, but MJ didn't let anyone take him outta his game.

Re: Gary Payton says Stockton was harder to guard than the GOAT
Basically what he is saying is he couldn't get into Stockton's head. Jordan was a major trashtalker and Payton was able to goad him into losing his cool. So Stockton was more of a mental challenge.

Kobe said Melo is the hardest to guard.

He often calls him a bull( referring to his strength) and is clearly speaking to the diversity of his offensive game.

Re: Gary Payton says Stockton was harder to guard than the GOAT
So the greatest perimeter defender of all-time says someone other than MJ was the hardest player to guard and it gets dismissed as "trash talk"
Once again the Jordaneers get butt hurt and have to defend their idol

Re: Gary Payton says Stockton was harder to guard than the GOAT
ish will never get or respect players who arent high volume scorers. GP is a emotional player who says he needed reaction to his actions to play his best. and John wasnt giving him anything to work with. in a documentary John said he never spoke to players of the other team during games. Wade mentioned how hard it was to play against the Spurs in the finals because they were like silent killers. he said that he doesnt know how K.Leonard's voice sounds after playing 7 finals games.

Again this Jordan troll always has to bring up Kobe in a non-Kobe thread and remind people Jordan is better. Then gets butt hurt because Payton rattled him. Yes Payton did rattle him and yes I was old enough to watch him play

Re: Gary Payton says Stockton was harder to guard than the GOAT
the only time you talk is to say gg after it's over or if someone is really talking shit then you can be like "bitch."
He's basically saying Stock would bust his ass when he talked shit (and in a legal way.) Dude's a beast. I really think he's my GOAT PG.
Obviously, every person is affected by trash talk, tho. lol. Some people are more than others. If you hear it, it's affecting you. But he was saying Stock never broke the system, and if you can talk shit to everyone in the NBA and there's one guy who you can't get to act wild, then that's your hardest match up. Pretty simple logic there.

Jordan averaged 31/8/4 on Payton for his career, and that includes the crummy Washington years.

Stockton averaged 14/3/10 on Payton for his career.
