SAN ANTONIO — The young Memphis Grizzlies looked like they finally figured out how to beat the aging San Antonio Spurs.

Not quite.

Solid defense and experience in the clutch won out again.

Tony Parker scored 32 points, hitting two of San Antonio's three baskets in the second overtime, and Michael Finley blocked Memphis' final shot as the Spurs pulled out a 106-103 victory last night.

"Memphis is a young, athletic, deep team," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "They play everybody tough."

The Grizzlies weren't nearly so tough in their last visit here, when the Spurs rolled to a 109-89 win back on Nov. 28. This time, rookie O.J. Mayo and his teammates stretched the Spurs to the limit and had plenty of chances of their own to win.

"They know how to win," Mayo said. "Mostly at this point we're still learning how to win. Which is OK."

The Spurs have won five in a row and 11 of their last 13, with Parker leading them in scoring nine times during that stretch. San Antonio also got its third win of the season over Memphis.

Parker's two baskets put the Spurs up by four before Mayo hit a 3-pointer for Memphis with 71 seconds left. The Grizzlies had a chance to send the game into a third overtime when Mayo drove the lane in the final seconds, but he couldn't get off a clean shot. He dished to Rudy Gay, but Finley was able to swat the ball from behind on the layup and San Antonio's Roger Mason came away with the loose ball.

Kurt Thomas, who scored the Spurs' first basket of the second overtime, added a free throw for the last point with 0.5 seconds left on the clock.

Tim Duncan scored 29 points for the Spurs before fouling out in the first overtime and Manu Ginobili scored 20.

"It was huge for us to get this win tonight," said Duncan, who was held to just five rebounds. "Tonight, we just found a way to win."

The Grizzlies, who snapped a four-game losing streak against Indiana on Friday night, fell to 2-12 on the road.

ATLANTA — Joe Johnson scored a season-high 41 points, Josh Smith also set a season high with 24, and Atlanta withstood Ben Gordon's 3-point barrage to beat Chicago.
