Jalen Brunson did all he could with a 41-point effort, but turned the ball over with 16 seconds remaining and his Knicks down by two points. The Heat won Game 6 96-92 and will face either the Celtics or 76ers in the Conference Finals.
New York performed well in the first quarter, but stumbled the rest of the way. Brunson got next to no support from his teammates and a mere 12 team turnovers proved too costly. It doesn’t even matter that the Knicks were without shooter Immanuel Quickley again. Some hard decisions need to be made this offseason and next year’s team could look a bit different.
