I thought Dennis Johnson was a pure point guard that brought the ball up. Thinking about this really changes my view on those teams. Are both scenarios that comparable to Scottie Pippen (real point guard) and John Paxson (spot up shooting guard). I'm just wondering to what extent those fowards played the role of point guard.

First of all Scottie Pippen is a "real point guard" he's a point forward as well, when was he ever a real pg? And Stockton a spot up shooting guard? You're talking about the all time assist leader being a shoot guard? He was a true PG who could play the pick and roll game like no other
