Anyone for a Clip of some good Basketball tonight?

By

     It's time for some post holiday basketball! 

     1st Quarter 

     JB looking good! So far the Star of the team has been as advertised, hes getting to the hoop and getting his shot. Question is can he carry this team to a win? This writer hopes so. JB needs to learn how to finish games like the greats tend to do. He needs to be a closer when JT is not around. 

     Lack of D, where is it? 

     Tonight's D has a lot to improve on. It's been very lackluster to start. Not sure if the Celtics are still hung over after that slap to the face loss to the wolves. The Clippers are looking like all stars out there. 

     2nd Quarter

     Defense starting to pick up finally, switches are being made effortlessly, active hands and overall great communication seems to be spurring the Celtics this quarter. Defense wins games and at this point we just need wins. 

    GWill is leading the league in corner threes, did anyone ever think they would think that? This writer didn't even think he had a place on this roster originally. He's proven himself to me, and to all of the Celtics fans around! Dudes a three point corner shooting machine! 

    3rd Quarter 

    RWill is a baller, his game continues to evolve. His offensive game is growing like a flower ready to bloom. Defensively he's awesome, blocking shots, getting rebounds and even making steals. With solid minutes his game is constantly growing. He has been one of the most efficient Celtics this season. 

    JB continues to roll as this third quarter progresses JB has stepped up and his teammates have followed, as we watch Mr 3 GWill nail the shot. The lead is dwindling. JRich being back has been very nice to see. His play elevates when the Celtics need him. 

     4th Quarter 

     Anyone for some defense or ball movement? As this fourth quarter starts can the Celtics get it right? It starts on D, then we need some solid ball movement, let's set some screens, and get guys cutting to the hoop. Once again we are playing to the level of a mediocre team. Please get it together! 

      Finally they have brought the fight! Hauser hitting a three, Thomas is hustling his butt off. Romeo diving on the floor, getting rebounds! Let's Go! 

     This season is spiraling out of control.

A sorrowful farewell to Kitty's Restaurant (North Reading, MA) as a family tradition

By
  Time to say "Goodbye" to Kitty's Restaurant - my   family's destination and tradition for six generations and more than 80 years. My memories of Kitty's go back to the early-1950's . I would accompany my dad and grandfather on fishing trips to the Ipswich River in North Reading, Massachusetts - followed by a visit to the restaurant on Main Street. In later years, my wife, Linda, and I would eat there with our two kids, Marc and Lisa - and years later - with our two grand daughters - and still later - with our great grandson, Carson. Author and family at Kitty's approx. 10 years ago Kitty's never disappointed. The drinks were big and well-made . The food was terrific - as were the portions. The service was exceptional and we became well-acquainted with the waiters and waitresses. It all worked so very well for many decades. My grand daughter, Courtney , was particularly fond of the restaurant. She was born with cystic fibrosis , and during her fr...

Wemby versus Kareem as rookies

By
 We already know that the Spurs Victor Wembanyama is going to be an NBA phenomenon, but will he surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar by the end of his career. It is highly likely.  I did a "per-36-minutes" comparison between the two stars, mainly because Kareem logged 43.1 MPG in his rookie campaign - while Wemby has been held to only 29.4 MPG. Kareem: 24.1 PPG - 12.1 RPG - 3.4 APG - .518 FG - .653 FT Wemby:  25.9 PPG - 12.9 RPG - 4.5 APG - .463 FG - .796 FT No blocks, steals or 3-pointers were looked at since they were not tracked in Jabbar's first year in the NBA. It should also be noted that Kareem was 22 years old at the time, while Victor started at age 20. Two factors favoring Wembanyama ultimately surpassing Jabbar on any "Best-of-All-Time" charts are his point guard skills , shared by so many European players.  and the fact he is being mentored by Gregg Popovich. His potential seems astounding. But the question remains. Can he garner six Titles and six MVP ...
