The New York Knicks’ eight-game winning streak had just been snapped by the Toronto Raptors.

“We took a step back tonight, I took a step back tonight,” Jalen Brunson said after one of his worst performances as a Knick – a forgettable seven-point, five-turnover showing he felt led to his team’s downfall Wednesday. “We can’t take two, three, four, five steps back. We have to take another step forward, get ready for Friday.”
