Amid the disappointment of getting bounced out of the playoffs, Jalen Brunson couldn't help but give props and admire Miami Heat culture.
Brunson's game-high 41 points Friday wasn't enough to save the Knicks from elimination in South Beach as No. 8 seed Miami knocked New York out in six games. The Heat had to overcome a 14-point first-quarter deficit to advance as well.
During his postgame news conference, Brunson expressed his respect for the organization.
"You got to give them a lot of credit," he said. "They didn't play like an eight seed at all. They're unbelievable.
