Kyrie Irving puts on a show

Kyrie Irving paused.

The Jersey Kid was back home, addressing the sellout crowd at Barclays Center before making his highly anticipated debut in Brooklyn — the place where he wanted to play, alongside the players he wanted to play with.

Irving had envisioned this moment since he was a fourth-grader growing up in West Orange, rooting for the Nets as they made back-to-back appearances in the NBA Finals.

Now, it was finally here — and his emotions took over as a result.

“Oh man, I’m sorry. It’s just hitting me now,” Irving said before composing himself.

Irving razzled and dazzled his way to 50 points in 38 minutes on Wednesday night — his staggering stat-line also featuring eight rebounds, seven assists, one block and no turnovers. Yet he fell while trying to crossover dribble on his team’s final possession of overtime before missing a desperation midrange shot at the buzzer, and the Nets lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves 127-126.
