Start a franchise with Isiah Thomas or John Stockton?

Great college starter

Thomas, but it's a tough call TBH.
Both were very skilled, but Thomas was more of a winner.

Thomas because of better leadership, grittiness and better scorer when needed

Isiah. Awesome PG who can be the go-to scorer in the 4th. Plus, he is flashier and will get more fans into the stadium and more jersey sales meaning I'd be making $$$.

Isiah was a true franchise player. Stockton was a great distributor and defender, but lacked the scoring skills.

As great of a playmaker Stockton is, I'd argue Zeke is easier to build around.
Oh, and he's just the better player if we are strictly talking talents.

Thomas is the better player to start a franchise, Stockton is the purest point guard of all time.

Give me Isiah.
If i'm a franchise with a middle of the pack payroll i'll need less guys, and therefore less money, to build a contender around Zeke. He takes car of the scoring and playmaking role which I think would be more valuable to have. Even if you couldn't surround him well for a few years, he could probably still carry you to a low seed playoff birth; I'm not sure Stockton could make a team a winner by himself

Isiah easily. CP3 and Isiah's a closer comparison.

Id rather have Stockton. You want your PG to run your offense, hit open shots out to three point range, and not be a liability on defense. It basically boils down to how many difgerent types of team would either of the PGs be successful in. I think Stockton would fit better in more situations

Lol, Zeke could do everything Stockton could.

Not even close.
Thomas: 29% career three point shooter, 45% Field goals.
Stockton: 38% three pointers, 52% field goals.
Stockton and it's not close.
He'd have two championships if Jordan didn't happen to enter his prime.
