Most NBA players have a go-to shot whether it the bank-shot a la Tim Duncan or the "sky hook" made famous by Kareem Abdul Jabbar. For San Antonio Spurs' Tony Parker it has been the "teardrop" shot.

Since arriving in the NBA at the ripe old age of 19, TP has been going to the shot whenever he gets into the lane.

He drives, lofts it high, has the ball sail over the big men in the paint with a high arc for the basket. For years, he has tormented shot-blockers with the teardrop that many fans associate his with the move.

Currently, Parker and Stephen Curry are fighting it out in the West semifinals and both have effective teardrop shots, however, Parker will like to let you know, he is the originator of the move.

After losing home-court advantage in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs on Wednesday, San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker had an interesting comment regarding the series between the Spurs and Golden State Warriors.

“If you want to win in the playoffs,” said Parker after game two, “you have to win on the road.”

Parker and the Spurs did just that Friday night as the series shifted to Oracle Arena where ESPN added a noise meter to track the volume in the arena. Only on Friday, the noise meter never had a chance to rise often as the Spurs controlled the tempo and momentum for almost 48 minutes of the game.

"It's a huge win for us,” said Parker (32 points, 5 assists) of defeating the Warriors 102-92. “It was a must-win situation. I thought our team was very focused. By far our best game of the series."

Though the game was competitive, the injury bug bit both squads Friday night. Warriors guard Stephen Curry (16 points) sprained his ankle in the fourth quarter and was limping excessively. He finished the game, but was hobbling the entire way.

The matchup of the game for Game 3 will be between Tim Duncan and Andrew Bogut.

Tim Duncan scored 23 points and 9 rebounds in Game 2 while shooting 9-20 (45%) from the field. Duncan will likely have to be more of a factor on the offensive end in the post, which would force the game to slow down to the San Antonio Spurs' advantage. Bogut was the opposite and has been for the entire series so far. He's averaging 5.8ppg and 7.7rpg the entire playoffs. In game 2, he only chipped in 6 points (2-3) and 11 rebounds. He hasn't been a factor so far and that may be key in this matchup for the Spurs to defeat the Golden State Warriors on their homecourt.

What Duncan must do on offense:

The San Antonio Spurs (5-1) will look to reclaim home court advantage tonight as they face the Golden State Warriors (5-3) in Oakland for Game 3 of their Western Conference Semifinals series. However, the Spurs will have their work cut out for them as they went 0-2 in Oakland during the regular season.

The Warriors are coming off their first win in San Antonio in 16 years beating the Spurs 100-91 in Game 2. Tony Parker finished with 20 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals to lead the Spurs in a losing effort. Klay Thompson finished with 34 points to lead the Warriors to a rare win in San Antonio.

And as the Spurs will look to escape Oakland with a win against the very confident Warriors, here are five things to watch for during tonight's contest:

Aside from making a statement on the basketball court for the San Antonio Spurs, Tony parker also likes to make a fashion statement off the court.

It is no secret TP loves fashion and he shows this with his choice of watch - Tissot. And as the playoffs are well underway, Tissot and Parker have unveiled the latest line of watches titled "Tissot PRC 200 Tony Parker Limited Edition 2013."

Here is how Tissot describes TP's new watch.

The San Antonio Spurs selected Adam Hanga with the 59th pick in the 2011 NBA draft and have been eager to see how he can develop overseas.

Fans have been excited to see him in a silver and black uniform, especially with his highlight videos online. They may have to wait a little longer, however, as Spanish site ZoomNews.es reports the team may think Hanga is a few more years away from becoming a contributor, although it may be a possibility they'll look at him with the team having an opening behind Kawhi Leonard.

Hanga has a different view than some striving to go to the NBA also.

You've seen them and perhaps you have done one - photobombs. The Internet sensation creates lots of laughs but this well-timed, glorious "photobomb' of San Antonio Spurs' Tim Duncan has to rank among the best.

A Spurs and Lakers fan posed for a photo but on the TV in the background is Duncan seemingly being tender with the Spurs fan while resting his hand on his shoulder.

Check out this great, well-timed photo of TD being gentle in an inadvertent photobomb.

One of the best perks of being an NBA player?

The San Antonio Spurs lost Game 2 to the Golden State Warriors last night in San Antonio as the series (1-1) shifts to Oakland for Game 3. The Warriors not only stole homecourt advantage, they also snapped a 30-game losing streak in San Antonio and look confident heading back home.

One can point to numerous reasons why San Antonio dropped Game 2 from allowing themselves to have to climb out of another double-digit deficit (16 points), no answer to stop Klay Thompson (34 points) and Stephen Curry (22 points) to poor performances from Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.

But as the scene shifts to Oakland, are Spurs fans concerned about the series and San Antonio's chances to advance? Apparently feelings are split.

After the game, I asked fans on Twitter their feelings about the series. Here is what some fans are feeling after the Game 2 loss.
