Last note on Parker: You're not stumbling into an NBA championship on the road. It just doesn't happen. You're not getting crazy shooting barrages from role players like San Antonio got in Games 3 and 5; on the road, you need one of your best guys to be THE best player on the floor. The '85 Lakers had Kareem and Magic. The '93 and '98 Bulls had MJ. The '06 Heat had Wade. The '11 Mavs had Dirk. For San Antonio to win the le, Parker has to come through like he did in Game 1 … or Tim Duncan needs to have one of those Flashback Duncan Closeout Games (more on this in a second). There's no other way.
