KEY GAME INFORMATION
SAN ANTONIO: GUARDS: TONY PARKER may not be ageless, as he'll sit a handful of games during the regular season. But when the 32-year-old is on the court, he still gets into the lane whenever he wants . . . He can't do anything off the dribble, but DANNY GREEN is one of the league's elite spot-up shooters . . . MANU GINOBILI will need some regular-season maintenance as far as playing time goes, especially coming off a stress fracture in his leg. He's essential for the postseason . . . MARCO BELINELLI will have a significant role off the bench due to his ability to defend, shoot and do some ball-handling . . . It might be a lost regular season for NBA Finals star PATTY MILLS as he works his way back from shoulder surgery. He hopes to make his season debut in mid-January . . . CORY JOSEPH will pick up a few more minutes while Mills is out. FORWARDS: There's plenty of buzz surrounding KAWHI LEONARD after his Finals MVP performance, though it seems unlikely they'll make him the centerpiece of this offense as long as their vets are still going strong . . . Thirty-eight-year-old TIM DUNCAN is still one of the better power forwards in the league. Just like Parker and Ginobili, he'll take the occasional DNP-CD. His rebounding and shot-blocking rates continue to surge. The only real disappointment last season was that his FT shooting slid back towards his sub-70% career mark . . . JEFF AYRES is one of the new anonymous big men at the end of the San Antonio bench. He'll see a handful of starts when Gregg Popovich rests his star players . . . KYLE ANDERSON is too much of a defensive liability to see major minutes as a rookie, but his versatile skill set suggests he could be Boris Diaw's heir apparent . . . MATT BONNER will hoist some threes during the regular season. CENTERS: Popovich rotates his centers depending on the situation. TIAGO SPLITTER, the more traditional 5, will likely take the bulk of the minutes again . . . BORIS DIAW will play when the offense gets stagnant, especially when opponents go small.
LA CLIPPERS: GUARDS: Head coach Doc Rivers pretty much hands the offense over to CHRIS PAUL, who is very much in his prime. He has a chance to lead the NBA in assists and steals again . . . He was banged up during the regular season, but J.J. REDICK fit nicely next to Paul when healthy . . . JAMAL CRAWFORD will reprise his sixth-man role. He can still fill it up, though he'll lose a bit of playing time if Redick stays healthy . . . JORDAN FARMAR is still hanging around L.A., this time to back up Paul. He'll run point for the second unit . . . C.J. WILCOX is arguably the best shooter in the rookie class, but he's not guaranteed to grab a rotation spot. FORWARDS: He still has flaws in his game, but BLAKE GRIFFIN continues to evolve into a more complete player. His improved shooting, both mid-range and at the line, is a testament to that . . . The Clippers failed to land an upgrade at small forward, so MATT BARNES might be the starter by default again. He's a good glue guy, though his streaky shooting is a frustration . . . The Clippers retained GLEN DAVIS in free agency. "Big Baby" can do some damage against opposing second units during the regular season. CENTERS: Rivers made DeANDRE JORDAN into a full-time player last season. He's a rim protector and rebounder who has made some strides defending in space, but there's a reason the Clippers spent on another big man . . . SPENCER HAWES gives them a different look at the 5-spot, and he can play alongside Jordan as a floor-spacer as well.

*Spurs-Clippers Preview* ========================

By KEVIN CHROUST STATS Writer

San Antonio At La Clippers, Game Five, 10:30 p.m. EDT

If Gregg Popovich has a recipe for the continued playoff success of his 19-year tenure with the San Antonio Spurs, it seems closely guarded.

One of the ingredients, however, is undeniably winning Game 5s, and the Spurs can return home with a 3-2 lead if that trend continues Tuesday night against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Dating to the Spurs' first championship in 1999, they've gone 23-8 (.742) in Game 5s while posting a 124-79 (.611) in all others. That includes six straight Game 5 victories over the previous two seasons and a 15-1 mark during the team's five title seasons.

The gaudy mark in Game 5s stands in stark contrast to Game 4s, San Antonio's worst at 19-26. That was confirmed in Sunday's 114-105 home loss as San Antonio missed a chance to make Tuesday's contest a clincher.

Chris Paul broke out with 34 points and shot 11 of 19 after being held to seven on 3 of 11 in the Clippers' 100-73 defeat in Game 3. He's scored 20 or more six times in eight games against the Spurs this season.

He also committed two turnovers Sunday after having six in Game 3.

"We tried to come out aggressive, on both ends, offensively and defensively," Paul told the team's official website. "We've got to find a way to not let things like Game 3 happen for us, and respond like this. The great teams come out that way regardless, and hopefully we learned something."

Despite the loss, the Spurs drew some encouragement from their own point guard. Tony Parker scored 18 points after being held to 5.7 and 25.0 percent shooting in the first three games while playing through Achilles tightness.

"He's starting to feel a lot better," forward Tim Duncan said. "It's great to see him going to the basket, make some plays for us. That will pay big dividends for us with the rest of the series, something else they will have to game plan for."

Parker's inconsistency against the Clippers, however, has spanned the season with 12.5 points and 37.6 percent in the eight games.

Guard play as a whole was a huge advantage for Los Angeles in Game 4 with Paul, J.J. Redick and reserves Jamal Crawford and Austin Rivers combining for 82 points.

"I could sense it right away, it was a different feeling the first five minutes of the game," Redick said. "Tonight, we were the aggressive team from the start."

Blake Griffin also bounced back from a poor showing in Game 3 with 20 points and 19 rebounds. He's averaged 25.0 and 11.8 in his last eight against San Antonio.

The Spurs got 26 points from Kawhi Leonard, while Duncan added 22 and 14 rebounds. Leonard has probably been the series' most consistent offensive player, averaging 24.8 points and shooting 60.0 percent and 56.3 percent from 3-point range.

Popovich, however, expects more out of the Defensive Player of the Year along with Danny Green in guarding Redick, who was 6 of 12 after going 10 of 32 in the first three games.

"No matter who we had on him, both Kawhi and Danny, didn't do a very good job of playing him the way he needs to be played, so he had the better of them through the whole evening for sure," said Popovich, who has guided the Spurs to wins in four of their last five road playoff games.

The Clippers are 1-7 in Games 5 and 6 since returning to the playoffs in 2012.
