The Spurs won despite being without key parts Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili. Tim Duncan and rookie George Hill came up big in the 77-75 win. Duncan had a game-saving block against Rockets guard Aaron Brooks late to clinch the win for the Spurs.

ts, but the Spurs had three players with at least 20 (Manu Ginobili with 30, Tim Duncan with 22 and Tony Parker with 20). Bryant got called for three personal fouls in this game, something sure to anger Lakers head coach Phil Jackson enough to make him tear in half a copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

The Spurs are down 2-0 to the Los Angeles Lakers in the Best-of-Seven Western Conference finals.

Leading the way in scoring for the Spurs was Tony Parker with 32, Manu Ginobili (recently named as the NBA’s sixth man of the year) with 29 points and Tim Duncan with 18 points and 17 rebounds. Duncan did, though, struggle from the free-throw line as he hit only two of six shots. Amazingly enough, Duncan wasn’t called for any personal fouls (that might change when the series heads to Phoenix).

The play of Chris Paul, Deron Williams and Tony Parker grab most of the headlines, and the Kidd for Harris swap has also gotten Devin’s name out there. But then there are guys like Mo Williams, Jose Calderon and Rajon Rondo who are on the cusp if not already arrived.
