Always give me a chuckle when I see the LeBron-lovers post a picture of Stockton and Malone as an example of the "easy" competition Jordan had to face. I'm no fan of either, but Malone is (now) the #3 all-time point scorer, #2 all-time defensive rebounder, #7 all-time rebounder and attempted and made the most free throws all-time (ahead of LeBron in everything but points). Stockton is the all-time steals leader (21% ahead of SECOND PLACE), all time assist leader (30% ahead of SECOND PLACE). Both are Hall of Famers.
