A game a day after he played 46 minutes. Remember this whole Lin thing didn't start against Derek Fisher but against Derron Williams where Williams was 7-19 for 11 assists. There was also the revenge factor which shouldn't be overlooked in sports, it seems Avery's gameplan was to keep the PG involved in the game in an effort to get him tired.
