These Raptors May Be Extinct


 These Raptors May be extinct after tonight's game, but we have the Unicorn in uniform! Not exactly sure why the C's decided to play most of their guys. Tonight's game has no bearing on anything! If I was the C's I'd be resting everyone! 

This Raptors team and organization has fallen hard. They had that one magic in a bottle year with KLeonard, and luckily caught the Warriors because of injuries. Since that time, they are no longer relevant. They may be in the play in, but to me that means nothing! 

It's looking more and more like the C's could match up with the Miami Heat if they beat the Hawks in the play in. If not it will be Atlanta. Who do I prefer we face...  It doesn't matter! Whether it's the Heat or Hawks I expect the C's to crush them. These playoffs should show this group out to destroy each and every competitor. Yes the Heat gave them fits last year, but the C's won't fall into that trap again. 

This Celtics team had been ultra focused to start this season, had a lull, yet seem to be ready for the post season. If they aren't than there is truly something wrong. This run should be led by the Jays! They better lead in all facets, because the rest of the team is stout and built to win. It's going to come down to DEFENSE!!! If they buckle down and get dirty they will bring home Banner 18. 

As for this game.... It is what it is. A meaningless game against a team that sucks. Kudos to JT for officially having his signature shoe dropped. That's quite an accomplishment for a player! I know I only buy the best, and JTs kicks are on my radar. I've personally always bought kicks of my favorite players. JT is next on my list. 

Let's all hope and pray JBs hand heals up for the playoffs in about a week. 

Tonight felt like a Geno night from the start!

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 ...
