Boston Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown talked about responding to getting challenged and punched in the face following last night’s 111-105 Game 2 home loss vs. the Miami Heat.
(via CLNS Media):
Reporter: “We saw it in the third quarter in Game 1, and then the last six or so minutes tonight. What does this team have to do when you get challenged, when you get a punch to the face, to respond and have an answer when the lights get brightest and the stage grows?”
Brown: “Be mature, be poised in those moments. This is a veteran team. They are good at exposing your weaknesses, they’re good at feeding off of indecision. Continue to be aggressive and just continue to be yourself. It’s a challenge mentally, it’s a challenge physically, they’re disciplined. We’ve got to overcome. We’ve got to find a way to win one, and then we go from there.”
