When asked about the no call in Game Four, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich had a quizzical response, denying that he knew anything of the league's statement. "I don't read that stuff, so I don't know," he said. "Doesn't do me any good to read it." ... Former Lakers F Robert Horry, who was instrumental in the team's run of three consecutive titles earlier this decade, struggled throughout the series. As a result of his sporadic play, he saw no action in Thursday's finale. ... G Barry, who was coming off a career night in which he scored a playoff-high 23 points in Game Four, didn't have nearly the impact in Game Five. Barry scored 11 points in 23 minutes off the bench.
