ROTATION: Starters -- Guard Raymond Felton, Guard Stephen Jackson, Forward Gerald Wallace, Forward Boris Diaw, Center Tyson Chandler. Bench -- Center Nazr Mohammed, Guard Flip Murray, Guard D.J. Augustin. PLAYER NOTES: --C Tyson Chandler spent about six minutes in the second quarter guarding Mavs power forward Dirk Nowitzki and the results were promising. Nowitzki didn't score and Chandler didn't foul. Coach Larry Brown has been looking to use Chandler at power forward in select situations.
--F Boris Diaw played about five minutes of regulation, plus the overtime, with five fouls, guarding mostly Dirk Nowitzki. He said the foul situation didn't cause him to guard Nowitzki any less aggressively.
--G Flip Murray, who had a big role as recently as five games ago, DPN-CD'd Saturday versus the Mavs, while D.J. Augustin played 15 1/2 minutes.
--F Stephen Graham's defense is keeping him on the court. He shot one of five versus the Mavs, scoring just two points, but he played over 16 minutes to offer another option to guard Dirk Nowitzki.
