After four games in the Western Conference semifinals, and without 16-year veteran Tony Parker, the Spurs and Rockets are tied at two games each.
After a whopping 121-96 game 2 victory, the Spurs learned that Tony Parker, the Spur with the longest tenure, would miss the remainder of the season with a torn quad. He had surgery to repair his quad a few days later, which went well. However the Spurs will be without #9, who was playing so well as of late, for quite some time.
While uncertain what the team would look like without the starting guard that has played in 16 playoffs, they responded well in game 3 beating the Rockets 103-92.
