Spurs 102, Warriors 92: Tony Parker scored 25 of his 32 points in the first half to help San Antonio slide past host Golden State and take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference semifinal series.
Tim Duncan added 23 points and 10 rebounds and Kawhi Leonard had 15 points and nine rebounds for the Spurs. Game 4 is Sunday afternoon in Oakland.
Klay Thompson scored 17 points to lead the Warriors. Stephen Curry added 16 points and eight assists and Andrew Bogut had 11 points and 12 rebounds.
The Warriors trailed 79-78 with 10:06 to play before San Antonio got back-to-back 3-pointers from Danny Green and Parker. Golden State made another push to get within five on a basket by Harrison Barnes with 2:47 remaining but Manu Ginobili hit a jumper 50 seconds later and the Spurs sewed up the game with five free throws over the final 34 seconds.
Golden State recovered from a nine-point halftime deficit to tie the score at 65 on Curry’s 3-pointer with 6:20 left in the third quarter. But Ginobili scored eight points during an 11-0 run that gave the Spurs a 76-65 edge en route to taking a 10-point lead into the final stanza.
Parker was 11-of-14 shooting in the first half as San Antonio led 57-48 at the break. Thompson had three points at the break after scoring 29 first-half points in Game 2.
San Antonio shot 65.2 percent from the field in the opening quarter and Parker had 13 points as the Spurs held a 32-23 lead.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Parker’s 25 first-half points is the fourth-most in a half this postseason. Two of the higher efforts also came in this series – Thompson’s 29-point half and Curry’s 28-point half in Game 1. … Warriors All-Star F David Lee (hip flexor) made a cameo during the second quarter and had five points in three minutes. … Curry was 5-of-17 from the field and tweaked his problematic right ankle with about five minutes to play.
