San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has praised his players for their away performances in the playoff final series, while also warning that they need to back the results up with a win at home.
The Spurs pushed ahead into a 3-1 lead over the Miami Heat with a 107-86 victory at the American Airlines Arena on Thursday night, with the in-form Tony Parker notching 19 points.
"I'm pleased that they performed as well as they did while we've been in Miami and that's about as far as it goes," Popovich told reporters after the game.
"Now, we've got to go home and play as well or better."
The Spurs can clinch the NBA championship if they defeat Miami in game five at the AT&T Center on Sunday.
