A prolific passer, Nash ranks third in NBA history in terms of assists made during the regular season and eighth during the playoffs.In the playoffs, Nash averaged 17 points and almost nine assists per game on 47, 40 and 90% splits from the field, the three-point line and the FT line respectively._________________________________________________________________#9 John Stockton - 182 playoff games, two NBA Finals appearancesJohn Stockton was a sharpshooter, and not just a great passer.The all-time leader in regular-season assists, John Stockton also had a solid NBA Playoffs career.

One such example was Stockon's Utah Jazz team. When they were at the peak of their powers, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls put an end to their NBA dream twice.Though Stockton had Karl Malone at his corner, the Jazz lost both their NBA Finals (1997 and 1998) against the Bulls in two hard-fought, all-time great NBA Finals series.Stockton averaged 15 points and 8.8 assists in the 1997 NBA Finals while his numbers in the 1998 NBA Finals were 9.7 points and 8.7 assists per game.
