POINTS OFF TURNOVERS Golden State 12 San Antonio 23 TECHNICALS: Golden State 0, San Antonio 0

(Sports Network) - The San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors head back to Alamo City for a crucial Game 5 Tuesday night with the Western Conference semifinal series knotted 2-2.

The Warriors tied the series on Sunday evening with a 97-87 overtime victory at a raucous Oracle Arena. Golden State finished regulation on a 10-2 run and tied it with a Klay Thompson runner with under a minute to go.

The Warriors thumped the Spurs in the extra session. They won that 13-3 as San Antonio missed eight consecutive shots over the end of regulation and overtime.

"This is the greatest group of guys I've been around, a bunch of warriors, no pun intended," said Golden State coach Mark Jackson. "We won this game the last 17 minutes by not turning the basketball over. With four minutes to go, they had 82 points. We are a defensive-minded team."

The Warriors truly did overcome a lot to win Game 4.

Steph Curry, the blossoming star, was hobbled with a sprained ankle, but still managed 22 points.

Golden State had 18 turnovers, which led to 18 Spurs points.

But the Warriors clamped down defensively late and were led by a rookie and a bench leader.

Harrison Barnes shot 26 points and attempted a career-high 26 shots. And Jarrett Jack, who finished third in Sixth Man of the Year voting, scored 24 off the bench.

"I'm not surprised by anything," Jackson.

One thing that is somewhat surprising is how poorly the Spurs are shooting the ball. They shot 35.5 percent from the field in Game 4, and other than a 50 percent night in Game 3, San Antonio has been below average.

They are shooting just 42 percent for the series.

"We've never shot this poorly for this many games in a stretch," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said after practice on Monday. "Hopefully, it's an aberration to be that bad in that regard, but you can't count on that. You have to count on your defense, aggressiveness and physicality."

Manu Ginobili led the Spurs on Sunday with 21 points, followed by 19 and 15 rebounds from Tim Duncan. He was named to his record 14th All-Defensive team on Monday, finishing as a second-team forward.

"It's pretty impressive," Popovich said. "It just shows great professionalism."

Tony Parker, Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard also scored in double figures for San Antonio in Game 4.

The Spurs would seem to have an advantage both being at home, where they finished 35-6 during the regular season, and in pedigree. They've won four NBA titles under Popovich, but this Warriors team is relentless.

They snapped a 30-game losing streak in San Antonio, which dated back to Valentine's Day, 1997, in Game 2.

"What we're realizing is, the foundation was laid even last year, in the middle of a 23-win season," Jackson said. "Nobody let go of the rope, when it seemed crazy that this day could really happen.

"And we're not done."

Game 6 will be Thursday night in Oakland. Broadcast time is 8pm on 1200 WOAI. 

SAN ANTONIO (May 13, 2013) – The NBA today announced that San Antonio Spurs forward Tim Duncan was named to the 2012-13 NBA All-Defensive Second Team. Duncan leads all players in NBA history with 14 All-Defensive Team selections over the span of his 16-year career with the Spurs.
 
Duncan’s 14th All-Defensive Team selection ranks him two of ahead Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett who have each been selected to 12 NBA All-Defensive Teams. Also trailing Duncan on the list are Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (11) and Scottie Pippen (10). The NBA introduced the All-Defensive Team in 1968-69.
 
In 2012-13, Duncan averaged 17.8 points, 9.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.65 blocks (third in the NBA) in 30.1 minutes. His 8.1 defensive rebounds per game ranked fifth in the NBA.
 
Duncan’s 2.65 blocks per game is his highest average since the 2003-04 season when he averaged 2.68 blocks. It is also the highest average of any NBA player 36-years-or-older since the NBA started keeping track of blocked shots in 1973.
 
Duncan anchored the Spurs defense that ranked eighth in both opponent field goal percentage (44.2 percent) and opponent points in the paint (40.0 points). The Silver and Black finished the regular season with a 58-24 record and clinched a playoff berth for the 16th consecutive year, the longest active streak in the NBA.
 
Duncan has been named to the NBA All-Defensive First Team eight times in his career (1999-2003, 2005, 2007 and 2008) and to the Second Team on six occasions (1998, 2004, 2006, 2009, 2010 and 2013).
 
Comprising this year’s First Team are guards Tony Allen of the Memphis Grizzlies and Chris Paul of the L.A. Clippers and forwards LeBron James of the Miami Heat and Serge Ibaka of the Oklahoma City Thunder. Rounding out the First Team are centers Tyson Chandler of the New York Knicks and Joakim Noah of the Chicago Bulls.
 
Joining Duncan on the NBA All-Defensive Second Team are guards Avery Bradley of the Boston Celtics and Mike Conley of the Grizzlies, forward Paul George of the Indiana Pacers and center Marc Gasol of the Grizzlies.
 
The voting panel consisted of the NBA’s 30 head coaches, who were asked to select NBA All-Defensive First and Second Teams by position. Coaches were not permitted to vote for players from their own team.  Two points were awarded for a First Team vote and one point was awarded for a Second Team vote.
