“You go back to last year and our home record (19-14), and I remember around here (people saying), ‘Oh, why aren’t you playing well at home?’ ” Rizzo said. “Well, we were used to 30,000, 40,000 people screaming and drinking beer snakes in the bleachers and going crazy, and then we just have empty seats.
RJ Barrett, who scored 21 points in the Game 4 loss, couldn’t be found in Game 5 and shot 5-of-14 from the floor and just two-of-six from downtown. Derrick Rose, who tallied 91 points through the first four games, left his cape in Chicago in Game 5. He shot just 3-of-11, unable to solve the Hawks’ defense. Immanuel Quickley gave the Knicks some life off the bench, but it was too little, too late.

On Wednesday afternoon, following the Bears’ organized team activity practice at Halas Hall, Dalton made it clear his focus and mindset didn’t change on the last weekend of April, when Justin Fields entered the picture. Yes, Fields immediately claimed the title of “franchise quarterback of the future” when he was selected with the No. 11 pick. But Dalton is locked in right now as the Bears’ steady veteran starter, responsible for playing at a level high enough that the team can oversee Fields’ development at a reasonable pace.
“Nick is a true pro and understands it, (he) is still very competitive,” Nagy said. “In all these meetings, it’s just really special to see how they’re trying to help Justin out and teach him how to play quarterback and how to watch film and study this offense. But also Justin helping them, too, with what he sees, so it’s been really good.”
John Doe 1, a former Hawks player from the 2009-10 team that went on to win the Stanley Cup, sued the Hawks on April 30 seeking $150,000 in damages based on claims Aldrich “turned on porn and masturbated in front of him,” then “threatened to injure (him) … physically, financially and emotionally if the plaintiff did not engage in sexual activity.”
They appeared to go ahead on a ball that popped out of Kim’s glove in shallow left as he collided with left fielder Tommy Pham, which initially scored Patrick Wisdom from third.
