Before the game

Spoiler-free context

Defending champion Houston had entered the playoffs as the sixth seed, while San Antonio owned home court and newly crowned MVP David Robinson. Hakeem Olajuwon's dominance through four games had transformed the series into a direct argument about the league's best center.

  • The series was tied 2–2, reducing the conference finals to a best-of-three with Game 5 in San Antonio.
  • Houston was attempting to return to the Finals without home-court advantage in any round; San Antonio was pursuing its first Finals appearance.
