Tuesday he did it with his jumper, Wednesday he did it with his passing. Jeremy Lin dished out 13 assists as the Knicks rolled to 100-88 win over Sacramento, giving the team its seventh win in a row.
Lin distributed the ball all over the court as seven Knicks ended up in double figures—the last time that happened was April 5, 2009, at Toronto. Landry Fields had a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds while Bill Walker and Steve Novak had 14 points each. Lin said, "As a point guard, my field goal attempts have been really high and I don't think that's necessarily good. I think it's more of my job to distribute and get people in rhythm." The win brings the Knicks back to .500 at 15-15.
Deron Williams had 26 points and 11 assists, but the Nets fell to Memphis 105-100. New Jersey actually out-shot the Grizzles, but they also were out-rebounded and committed 20 turnovers. The loss is the Nets' seventh in a row and drops them to 8-22.
