Sacre blur!

Tony Parker was truly a flying Frenchman in Game 2, blowing by Cav defenders time and time again for 30 points. After putting up 27 in a similarly electric Game 1 performance, Parker has got to be considered the front-runner for Finals MVP, even though three-time winner Tim Duncan has had two very good games of his own.

This was one of the finest performances the Spurs have ever put forth...at least it was until that absolutely miserable 4th quarter, when the Cavs cut a 27-point lead to as little as eight on several occasions. This near catastrophe will either be the turning point that lets the Cavs back into the series by finally providing them with the confidence they've sorely lacked so far, or will intensify the Spurs resolve to go for the throat and end this series as quickly as possible.

I am certainly hoping for the latter!
