Enes Kanter knows what Porzingis was going through

Enes Kanter was witness to another Knicks’ loss Friday at the Garden — their 12th straight and 13th in a row at home. It was a night that featured chants of “We Want Kyrie’’ for free-agent-to-be Kyrie Irving — along with “Let’s go Celtics.’’

Kanter is glad Kristaps Porzingis no longer has to witness the pile of defeats. Friday’s 113-99 setback to the Celtics was their 25th loss in 27 games and dropped the Knicks to a league-worst 10-41.

Kanter says he “knows the answer’’ to the question of why Porzingis, who was traded Thursday to Dallas, was disgruntled with the organization and wouldn’t commit long-term.
