Kyrie Irving has the Dark Knight part down pat, but Anderson Varejao is going to have to work on his Robin.

Irving, nicknamed The Dark Knight by his teammates for wearing a black mask to protect the small fracture in his upper left jawbone suffered on Friday night, scored a career-high 41 points on Saturday night, but Varejao missed one of two free throws with one second left that allowed the New York Knicks to escape with a 103-102 victory in Gotham, er, Madison Square Garden.
