lot. When asked if he "really" was saying Stockton was tougher to guard than Jordan he again goes off on how often he played against Stockton. If Stockton regularly "detroyed" Payton as you are saying, he was just as regularly destroyed by Payton. Their numbers against each other are very similar as well as their H2H.

He brings up Jordan whom he played much less frequently, are you suggesting Stockton was better than MJ? What Payton fails to mention is when he played the likes of MJ, he had the entire teams help guarding him, when playing Stockton, it is much more a one-on-one effort.
