    I have a proposition for you nba video producers: how about you shorten your videos a bit. I mean, seriously, you don't have enough video footage of decent quality, to fill all these 1 minute long videos…
    no srsly, what the… I think John Stockton had a little more to say about that night!

    i saw the typo on the video title and i thought, "it's just one typo, right? a professional organization like the NBA couldn't possibly misspell the same word more than once?"

    but then i read the description.

  11. @uxy1

  12. @679steelers9

    I think John Stockton is picked low because he's from Gonzaga.

  26. @michaelm2998

    Stockton would have been a #1 pick in the 50s & 60s

  27. @lukesmith9692

    That shot was the Jazz's best moment ever( over Barkley)

  28. @omgzfuup

    Stockton is a legend

  29. @nancyborden5860

    Darn, John is so handsome.

  30. @holden6104

    To this day, I don't understand how a guy who looks like the 40 year old virgin went on to break records in the NBA. I regret so much that I never watched this guy play.

  31. @StuUngar

    Were they yelling boo or boo-urns?

  32. @marvinchavez4951

    Who's here after Jalen Suggs hit the game winner vs Ucla?

  33. @Skazellino

    Still to this day the best pick in Utah Jazz history. That Scout knew his shit for sure.

  34. @Vanhook4456

    Gonzaga Legend 509🐐

  35. @moonrayz4

    "I just hope….I can make it easier for the coach to give Ricky (Green) a rest when he needs it.." Mission accomplished, I'd say.

  36. @Joseph-lz5er

    And the year later they drafted Karl Malone. Two future HOF's and legends drafted back to back years. Incrdible.

  37. @NathanL613

    "I play basketball to relax." Legend!
