Malone to Stockton 1997 NBA Finals – Utah Jazz vs Chicago Bulls
I think Utah can live with him taking the jump shots at least to start. Beautiful pass. Yes, Car Malone with the nice 10 on the 24 poster tag. So huge defensively forcing misses. Stockton back door. The Jazz have led by as many as 10. They’ve had that 10-point lead on a couple of occasions. Beautiful back door feed in the first half. Full 74. We have five minutes to go in the fourth. And Michael has the strength, the tongue hanging out, and the look. Stockton again.
The phrase goes “Stockton to Malone”, but there were plenty of great plays where Karl Malone assisted John Stockton. John Stockton was a great cutter, and Karl Malone drew a lot of attention out of the low post. Here are some highlights of this duo from the 1997 NBA Finals.
