C's Swat the Hornets


C's visit Charlotte to end this six game road trip. Let's hope they swat em to death. C's also look to inch closer to home court throughout the Finals. 

Overall tonight's game seemed to never be in question. JT and KP led the way with 25 and 20 points. Sam poured in 25 while DWhite had 19. You add Als 15 and I'd say that's some good balance. What's truly something about this team is they are unselfish. They truly play for each other and move the ball that way. I feel they all trust each other to make the shot when called upon. I trust each and everyone one of the starters to hit a game winning shot if needed. 

When the C's play defense, their offense flows so much better. Come playoffs, they will be so locked in on D we should see them play some of their best basketball. I'd love for them to be dominant in the post season. I know that's wishful thinking but it can happen. C's next game will be at home vs the Thunder. I'd love to see some payback for earlier in the year. 

Anyone watching the Mens and Womens NCAA tournament?! I tell ya the UConn men are a wagon, but Bama can score. Expect a very good game from them. In the other game do yourselves and favor and watch DJ Burns Jr. He's a big dude but moves very beautifully out there. Excellent footwork and great touch. Purdue also has their own big and he has something to prove. Locally the Lady Huskies look to advance to another final four tonight. Basketball is beautiful! 

Celtic Pride! Bleed Green!

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 ...
