Built to compete with the Eastern Conference’s elite during the offseason, the New York Knicks are trying to still figure out how to break into the top group after the past two games.

Donovan Mitchell scored 27 points, Evan Mobley added 21, and the Cleveland Cavaliers bullied the New York Knicks from the start Friday night, winning 142-105 in a matchup of two of the Eastern Conference's top teams.

The Knicks dropped to 0-6 against the three teams with a better record than them — and for the fourth time, did so in humbling fashion.

Jayson Tatum scored 25 points with 10 rebounds and nine assists to lead the Boston Celtics to a 118-105 victory over the New York Knicks on Sunday. Tatum just missed getting a triple-double for the second straight game after earning one in a victory at Philadelphia on Thursday.
