Kyrie Irving scores 31 to lead Nets past Knicks as crosstown bullying continues

For this game — and most games against the Nets — the Knicks should be happy that James Dolan refuses to enter Barclays Center.

The team owner, who has set the bar at playoffs this season, would’ve witnessed an embarrassment Saturday from his Knicks, who were pathetic for much of Saturday’s 122-115 loss until a too-little, too-late comeback in the fourth quarter.

The Knicks (27-24) dropped their ninth straight to the crosstown rivals, although ‘rivalry’ doesn’t really apply to this matchup.
