Knicks’ road woes reach new low in brutal late loss to Pistons

DETROIT — Kristaps Porzingis made buckets this time — aplenty.

But it wasn’t enough because the Knicks always find ways to lose away from the Garden.

Friday night, they blew a four-point lead in the final 1:14 to ruin Porzingis’ bounce-back 29-point night and lose 104-101 to the Pistons at Little Caesars Arena.

Before the game, Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy mocked the league for giving the Knicks, who fell to 2-10 on the road, a home-heavy early schedule. It’s the second heartbreaking loss this season to the Pistons, who rallied from 21 down to ruin their home opener.
