Jaylen Brown leads Celtics to 2-0 lead over Magic, answers the call without Jayson Tatum

BOSTON — Jaylen Brown is tired of talking about his knee.

The first question he faced following an electric performance in a 109-100 victory against the Orlando Magic in Game 2 of their first-round playoff series was, naturally, about the right knee that he bruised in mid-March. Though he has played sporadically ever since, Brown has been impaired, missing seven of his team's final 14 games and receiving pain-management injections in the final week of the regular season.

So he wanted no part of this line of questioning.

"Just another game to be played," he said.
