KEY GAME INFORMATION
MEMPHIS: GUARDS: The Grizzlies will scale back MIKE CONLEY's minutes a bit. He's a quality starting point guard, but seemed to lose some pep as last season wore on . . . TONY ALLEN figures to see more playing time now that O.J. Mayo is gone. He's an outstanding defender who will be the fifth option on offense . . . JERRYD BAYLESS figures to become the new sixth man and Allen platoon partner. He'll also spell Conley at the point, leading to solid minutes for the combo guard . . . Second-year man JOSH SELBY has a chance for a rotation spot after starring in the Summer League. He has big offensive upside . . . WAYNE ELLINGTON seems like an emergency plan for the second unit . . . This is likely a redshirt year for talented, but erratic, rookie TONY WROTEN. FORWARDS: RUDY GAY is going to lead the Grizzlies in touches and shots. He's not shy about looking for iso situations . . . ZACH RANDOLPH had trouble getting back into the flow after his knee injury. It's always been a fragile balance with Z-Bo, and he could be an odd man out going forward . . . MARREESE SPEIGHTS should be the offensive focal point of the bench unit as their sixth man . . . QUINCY PONDEXTER is a versatile defensive piece who will see solid minutes off the bench. He's a non-factor offensively, though . . . DARRELL ARTHUR suffered a non-displaced fractured in his leg in late September, and will not likely be ready when the season begins. A rising young big, his role will depend on when his athleticism comes back. CENTERS: The Grizzlies are at their best when MARC GASOL is getting touches and shots on the offensive end. Whether or not Gay and Randolph are willing to share is a concern, but Gasol has to be aggressive when the ball is in his hands . . . HAMED HADDADI will continue to play limited minutes off the bench.
NEW YORK: GUARDS: RAYMOND FELTON will start at the point, which seems like a colossal mistake. He had his career year in New York under Mike D'Antoni, but the Knicks have gone away from the pick-and-roll system he thrived in . . . Don't be surprised if JASON KIDD is overtaking Felton in minutes played by midseason. He's limited athletically but still a heady passer . . . Resident chucker J.R. SMITH should see big minutes early before IMAN SHUMPERT steps in as the defense half of their shooting guard platoon as soon as his knee is recovered mid-season . . . RONNIE BREWER will be Smith's defensive complement while Shumpert is out . . . PABLO PRIGIONI is a game manager who provides insurance at the point. FORWARDS: This is once again CARMELO ANTHONY's team, as the Knicks will run their offense through him. It's going to be a lot of iso, and a lot of scoring opportunities for Melo . . . AMAR'E STOUDEMIRE doesn't fit nearly as well in this system as he did in former coach Mike D'Antoni's. He ended up forcing a lot of shots a year ago, and his durability is a major question mark . . . STEVE NOVAK will continue to come off the bench strictly as a three-point shooter. He's one of the best long-range bombers in the NBA, but he's too much of a defensive liability to play more than 20 minutes per night . . . Swingman JAMES WHITE will also get some minutes at the two or three spots with his 6-foot-7 frame. . . CHRIS COPELAND had some solid years overseas, but will be lucky to break into this rotation . . . KURT THOMAS is in player/coach mode. CENTERS: TYSON CHANDLER is indispensible on the defensive end as long as sieves Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire are also in the frontcourt . . . MARCUS CAMBY can't defendin space like Chandler can, but his ability to rebound and protect the rim will come in handy as the second unit is no better defensively than the starters . . . RASHEED WALLACE came out of retirement, but has a long way to go, especially with his lack of conditioning, before he contributes much at age 38.
PREVIEW
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PA SPORTSTICKER PRO BASKETBALL PREVIEW (MEMPHIS-NEW YORK) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Grizzlies-Knicks Preview* ==========================

Memphis (47-23) at New York (42-26), 7:30 p.m. EDT

The New York Knicks are 10-4 at home against Western Conference opponents and the Memphis Grizzlies are 10-4 on the road against the East.

That's not the only similarity ahead of Wednesday night's matchup at Madison Square Garden between teams that will likely be missing key big men as the Knicks try for a sixth straight victory.

New York (43-26) won 100-85 at Boston on Tuesday as Tyson Chandler missed his seventh consecutive game with a bulging disk.

Chandler did not rule himself out Wednesday, but said he would "most likely" miss the contest in order to get two more days off before the Knicks play again Friday.

"When I get on the basketball court, I'm going to play defense and rebound and look up, so that's kind of my problem area right now," said Chandler, averaging a team-best 11.0 rebounds. "It's not something that I'm really worried about for long periods."

Memphis (47-23) will be without Marc Gasol for a third straight game. Gasol, second on the team with 7.8 rebounds per game, is out indefinitely with an abdominal injury.

His loss is a major one for the Grizzlies, whose plus-3.8 rebound margin is the NBA's second-best mark.

Memphis will play for the first time since Monday's 107-94 loss at Washington while New York will try to improve to 10-6 in the second half of back-to-back games.

The lack of rest shouldn't prove detrimental for a Knicks team that averages 40.8 points from its bench for the league's second-best mark. That depth was evident as J.R. Smith scored 32 of the reserves' 47 points against the Celtics.

Smith felt the key to victory was New York's defense, which forced 20 turnovers that led to 17 points.

"We credit everything we do to our defense," Smith said. "When we get out and run, no one can really run with us."

Carmelo Anthony made 10 of 30 shots for 29 points for New York, which extended its lead atop the Atlantic Division to 2 1/2 games over Brooklyn.

"It's tough for a lot of teams to come here and win (but) we're playing for something," coach Mike Woodson said. "They're playing for something, too, and they're a little beat up, like we are. And I just thought tonight our defense set the tone early and it was a nice flow for 48 minutes."

The Knicks will now try for their first six-game win streak since beginning 6-0.

That perfect start ended with a 105-95 loss at Memphis on Nov. 16. It was a feisty contest that featured six technical fouls, including infractions on Woodson, Smith and Anthony.

The Grizzlies could be still smarting after allowing John Wall to score 47 points Monday. It's the most one player has scored against Memphis since Kevin Martin had 48 for Sacramento on Nov. 2, 2009.

"When somebody has it going like that, there's really nothing you can do. You just put a hand up and hope that he misses," said guard Mike Conley, who scored a team-high 23.

Memphis is trying to avoid its first five-game road slide since a six-game skid Nov. 15-Dec. 6, 2010.
