Cooking up some fried Hawks!


First Quarter Moments

Hawks come out throwing haymakers, shooting plenty of three point shots. Which leads to a pretty decent lead. The Celtics defense and rebounding have been lax. Need to amp it up and put the Hawks back in their place. 

C's have started to put the clamps on these birds and are fighting back! You have to love this team falling back on playing D and not jacking up threes. Defense was their calling card last season and it's needed now. 

C's finish off the quarter with a BANG! Malcom Brogdon hits the deep deep three! I absolutely love this man. He does everything you want a basketball player to do. He's so damn smooth! 

Second Quarter Moments 

Both Jays seem to have an edge to them so far. Not only tonight, but last game as well. I truly believe that finals loss has left a horrible taste in their mouths. The only answer is to win Banner 18 and I believe they will!

Derrick White along with Malcolm Brogdon have been two of my favorites this season and in this game. They will each continue to contribute in huge ways this post season. You have to love that the C's after that early start have shown the Hawks who owns this series. 

Third Quarter Moments

JB with a monster Jam! Marcus Smart has been very aggressive in this third getting to the hoop. Whenever he has a head of steam he's impossible to guard. Al Horford is doing it on both ends tonight! Blocking shots and getting inside and scoring. 

The Celtics have answered everything the Hawks have thrown at them. Kudos to the Hawks for playing harder tonight. But they ain't winning a game this series.

JB since putting on that mask has been super hero like! The way he soars to the hoop, you would think he's flying! All I can hear is the Superman theme song! Hawks are fighting back, and showing they have heart. 

C's will need a huge fourth to put the Hawks to bed. 

Fourth Quarter Moments 

DWhite getting in the paint and scores easily. For sure one of his sweet spots inside the painted area! He's just a solid NBA player, who happens to love the organization he plays for. 

JB just told Murray to get that weak crap out! Love how much JB has improved playing defense. DWhite with a HUGE three! DWhite is crashing the boards, dude is a Man amongst boys! 

Malcom breaks down the D and finds DWhite inside! It's great watching these two on the floor together! DWhite with another three! Let's Go I love this dude! Scal seems to have a weird Crush on Trae Young. 

Derrick White!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dude is doing a little bit of everything! Scoring! Rebounding! Blocking  Shots! He's even getting some MVP chants! 

JT is dealing assists like a dealer at a black jack table! His passing has improved immensely! I love watching him pass the rock! JT with the block and a rim rocking crowd stomping JAM! C's are ROLLING! It's Gino Time! 




Celtics win! Bleed Green! Banner 18!

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

  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

 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 ...
