Speaking after the game, New York Knicks forward Julius Randle said they would be back. “Disappointed. We wanted and expected more. But we’ll be back,” Randle said of the season. “A lot of good moments. There are a lot of moments of growth that we should be proud of. We’ll take time to re-evaluate and figure out what we can do better to move forward.” He said.
The Miami Heat will face off against either the Boston Celtics or the Philadelphia Sixers, who are set to battle it out in Game 7 later today.
