Tony Parker has come a long way since 2003, when the Spurs were flinging woo at Jason Kidd, whose Nets Parker had just helped beat for his first championship. The Frenchman is now gunning for a third ring, and his scoring has him on pace to beat out three-time winner and teammate Tim Duncan for Finals MVP.

Parker, 6'2", 25, will also be marrying Desperate Housewives stunner Eva Longoria, 5'2", 32, on 7/7/07.  Said a San Antonio sports columnist: "It's like an Elvis movie, where you show up, you win the leading lady and you win the race, too." (More NBA stories.)
