Hornets A Buzz


 🍀

     Cs are author without Jaylen Brown tonight. I'm cool with it because he needs the rest. That knee needs rest and I'd even let him sit the first round of the playoffs. Cs will be ready for whoever comes their way come playoffs. I am curious how the west matchups shape up. Those teams are fighting for the three through six seeds. I mean even in the East some seeds are up for grabs. Once everything boils down I'd love to know our readers predictions. 

     Al Horford starts off the game with the BLOCK! Cs have found themselves missing a few too many shots early on. DWhite bags the first shot for the Cs. He liked it enough he scores again. DWhite nails the three with a hand in his face! Cs are a bit sloppy with the rock. I can't wait for DWhite to hit the playoffs and show everyone what he has. 

      All I want from the Cs is to get out of this game healthy. Looking like Luke and PP will be the first two off the bench. DWhite earns the first Tommy point of the game. What a block from DWhite! He's a a defensive wizard! White with another block! What a quarter he's having. I'm ALL IN with the Celtics going back to back. 

🍀🍀

      I love this team and really want to see them go back to back. They will have to be locked in defensively. If they are they will prevail. The way their defense leads to offense is a thing of beauty. This Hornets team is a complete mess. Kudos to MJ for selling when he did. These Hornets are competing and have a lead. 

     As I've said before I am not worried about facing the Cavs. They have played really well all year but they are nothing special. In the second round I would not be surprised to see them lose to the Pacers or Bucks. Out West I see the Thunder winning, unless Jokic goes nuclear in these playoffs. Crazy they fired their Coach and GM. Just like the Grizz firing their Coach. 

     Al Horford never seems to age, he's just solid. He a rock and pillar for this team. A guy who came here all those years ago and set his mark on Boston. He left briefly but once he came back he seemed even better. He's a definite lock for the Hall of Fame someday. Cs are in a tight one vs the Hornets. 

     Cs use the second to finally turn things up and totally blow the doors off the Hornets. Let's say they swatted em pretty good! Good performances from the silky sweet shooters of Sam and PP. I tell you with the depth of this team no one is beating us other than ourselves in a seven game series. I love what Luke and Queta brought tonight and all season. Those are two quality bigs to have on your roster. One down one to go and then it's the big show. 

Celtic Pride! Bleed Green! C US Rise!

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 ...
