Spurs coach Gregg Popovich seems to have the edge when it comes to coaching adjustments in the series. After losing Game 4, Popovich responded by starting Manu Ginobili and was able to get more scoring and penetration in the lane by Parker and Ginobili, which led to open perimeter shots and left Miami's defense scrambling. "At this time we're going to make another adjustment," Wade said. "It's going to be very small. But that's not what's going to win the ballgame. Just like the adjustment they made with throwing more isolations at Tony Parker didn't necessarily win the ballgame, but it helped. It changed things. "So we have to go back (and) we have to make adjustments. But more so than that, it's a lot of mental mistakes we made (Sunday) night. If we make those mistakes in Game 6, it will be the same result. So we have to be more locked-in from start to finish." USA Today Sports

Green hit six three-pointers in San Antonio’s 114-104 victory over Miami on Sunday, helping to deliver a 3-2 series lead as the teams head back to South Florida for Game 6 on Tuesday. His remarkable three-point run now includes 25 makes through the first five games, already an NBA record. He’s currently shooting an unconscious 25-for-38 (65.8) percent from deep in the Finals, yet somehow still manages to find sufficient daylight to launch. “I can’t believe he’s still open at this moment in the series,” Spurs guard Tony Parker declared after Game 5. “They are still trapping me and doubling [Tim Duncan], and Danny is wide open. He’s shooting the ball well. If you are going to leave Danny wide open, he’s going to make threes.” SI.com

He took just four shots in the second half, missing all of them, and didn't have a free-throw attempt. The Heat defended him aggressively on pick-and-rolls, and Parker said he felt a little tired. "It was kind of weak," Parker said of his injury after Game 4. "I didn't know what to expect. So the first three, four minutes I was testing it, and the first half it felt OK. And the second half I think I got fatigued a little bit. But overall I'm just happy I didn't make it worse. "That was the goal, to not try to get hurt, because Pop was not really happy, meaning I wanted to play and took a little risk. So I'm happy I'm not worse." Yahoo! Sports

Now it is the Spurs' turn to dwell on what they didn't do. And what the Spurs said about Ginobili was not unlike what the Heat were saying about James and Wade. “We need him to be a little more aggressive, be a little more selfish,” Tim Duncan said, “and hopefully we can find him a way to get him to do that.” And from Tony Parker: “We need to help him try to get his confidence going.” San Antonio Express-News
