"He picked up where he left off before he left All-Star break," said San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich of his All-Star point guard Tony Parker on Tuesday.
After 48-minutes of basketball, Parker guided the Spurs to a 108-102 victory over the Sacramento Kings in a game in which Parker scored 30 points and collected 11 assists. Parker received help from his Spurs teammates like Danny Green (21 points), Kawhi Leonard (15 points), Manu Ginobili (12 points), and Boris Diaw (10 points). However just because the Kings were a team without a winning record didn’t mean they didn’t compete, as Isaiah Thomas, Tyreke Evans, and Marcus Thornton forced the Spurs to earn the victory by keeping the game competitive all the way down to the final minute.
Here are some key points in the Spurs’ 43rd victory of the season, and one that made them 5-1 on their current Rodeo Road Trip.

For years the San Antonio Spurs were known as Tim Duncan's team. Everything went through Duncan, the offense and defense along with laying down the foundation of the Spurs' philosophy of treating every player on the roster the same. He was treated and coached the same way the last guy on the bench was. The team was a slow paced team, looking to drain the shot clock as much...
