NEW YORK -- Jalen Brunson said he was feeling the weight of expectations as he struggled to find any rhythm at the start of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.
Brunson, who called his play "horrific" following an 0-for-7 display from 3-point range in Game 1, started Tuesday by going 1 for 6 from the field against a Jimmy Butler-less Miami Heat squad. But that's when Brunson looked within and turned around his bad night.
"Honest to God, I started not to feel sorry for myself," he said.
