John Stockton's 1995 season ranks among the most statistically extreme in NBA history — measured only against its own season and position-group peers (robust z, never blended across eras).
John Stockton's 1995 season, re-projected onto the 2026 league — its within-era standing expressed in one modern currency (VAL), so it ranks beside today's best in NBA history.
Ranked against the single greatest era-translated seasons in every sport by z — robust standard deviations above John Stockton's own era's positional peers, the one dominance measure comparable across the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB.
The season chip above measures John Stockton's single best year. This measures the whole career: every rated season's standing against its own era's peers, summed. A season at the era median adds nothing and a below-median season subtracts — so this number is time spent above your era, not time served.
