\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a big game.\u201d Knicks coach Mike Woodson said Smith probably won\u2019t play more than 30 minutes. \u201dHe might be the first guy off [the bench],\u201d Woodson said. \u201cA lot of times it\u2019s based on my personnel, my rotations. He\u2019ll be one of the first ones off the bench.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woodson also stated that Kenyon Martin and Amar\u2019e Stoudemire will come off the bench in place of the injured Tyson Chandler.<\/p>\n

The Knicks will start their lineup of Raymond Felton, Pablo Prigioni, Iman Shumpert, Carmelo Anthony and Andrea Bargnani. The Spurs will start Tony Parker, Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green, Tim Duncan and Tiago Splitter. Matt Bonner (Center) is out for the Spurs with left calf tightness.<\/p>\n
