Kyrie Irving and Brooklyn Nets took on New York Knicks at the Madison Square Garden on Wednesday. The Nets came back from 21 down to sweep the season series. And Kyrie got into it with a Knicks fan at halftime, while walking to the locker room.

Irving poured in 24 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists. He also had an altercation with a fan at halftime. The fan said some words to Kyrie and he wasn’t impressed. He came back to confront the fan and shared a few words with him.
