NEW YORK (AP) Brook Lopez scored 24 points and the Brooklyn Nets dominated the second half to beat the Knicks 121-110 on Thursday night, their second victory over their New York rivals in five days.

The Nets made five straight 3-pointers during a 38-point third quarter, turning around the game after they were just 2 for 16 behind the arc in the first half.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson added 20 points and 10 rebounds for Brooklyn, which beat New York 120-112 at home on Sunday and earned a split of the city series after the Knicks won the first two meetings. Former Knicks star Jeremy Lin had 15 points and eight assists in his first game at Madison Square Garden this season.

Kyle O'Quinn came off the bench to score 23 points for the Knicks, who still haven't won consecutive games in 2017. Derrick Rose added 22 and Carmelo Anthony had 17.
