Well, well, well. Look at who just got their championship form back.Yes, all the Spurs needed were some home cooking, some home cheering and the 6th Man awardee to become a starter.
Manu Ginobili started in Game 3 and he started out hot. By the end of the Spurs' Game 3 110-99 victory, Ginobili has logged in 31 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds.
Tony Parker came back with a vengeance with another 31 points and 11 assists, negating Chris Paul's excellent offensive game (35points and 9 assists).
David West had a monster game with 23 points while Tim Duncan had a solid game with 16points.
But for me, the biggest reasons why the Spurs won were the disappearance of Tyson Chandler (foul trouble) and Peja Stojakovic (8 points in 2-7 shooting, as contrast to Game 2's 25points) and the timely offensive contributions of Michael Finley (3-5 three's in the 2nd quarter) and Bruce Bowen (4 three pointers in the 2nd half).
Now we get to see how fast the Hornets adjust to playoff basketball.
