This is religion, not bands. Calvin believed you are predestined to heaven or hell Both . Music played a vital role in the Reformation... Finally after years of u one upping me on Music i bettered you.. Calvin’s views Jean Calvin (1509–1564) led a Protestant movement in France, the Low Countries, and Switzerland that rejected papal authority and accepted predestination. He favored singing psalms to monophonic tunes and rejected elaboration. French Psalter The tunes used for singing psalms in Calvinist worship were published in collections called psalters. Psalm-singing in churches was at first monophonic, but psalm tunes were set polyphonically for devotional use at home. Psalters spread widely and translations were available in many places, including New England. Huh, I only knew him as the predestinatiin guy. Seems he had a broader impact.

He and Martin Luther and others used music as a lure or a way of communtating with the new reforminist. Old School Brethren and Amish were the only two denominations to ban any music in the church at all.. There are books writen on this subject in the EMU Mennonite Library in Harrisonburg. At EMU it was actually part of the study to me a minister.. wwnorton.com/college/music/concise-history-western-music4/ch/08/outline.aspx

Big difference from last year other than roster is the effort, especially on defense. Biggest evidence of this is the opponent 3pt % stats and the difference from last to this year.
Last year the Celtics ranked 1st in opponent 3pt %, this year they rank 22nd. Going up from 33*.4% to 37.4%.
To me that is all defensive effort, or lack there of

Actually thats been reported as related to the loss of Hayward ... he had the length and quickness to defend the perimeter with others like Brown & Smart for success. Sans Hayward, Brown & Smart are unable to cover the entire perimeter and Tatum hasn't been much help.

I cant believe that losing 1 player would result in a team drop of that margin. I think effort has a lot to do with it. Tatum, Brown and Smart...Particularly the last 2 arent the defenders they have been in the past imo. They have the length and quickness to still be a good defensive team, along with a mobile big

Can't ya beat up on the wife or kids instead of beating up on everyone here. All ya keep sayin it's Tatum and Brown's fault now ya included Smart . I'll agree Smart is no longer an all defensive team personal and Tatum loses interest in defense all game long. Brown before his injury was noted as being a good defender by ALL NBA personal.. John Calvin was a minister not a band.. Your knowledge is very limited basketball isn't your only failure...

Theis was here half the year, and Rwill has played more since hes left. Roster isnt much different, what changed in a year? No Kids yet, how about a puppy?

Roster isnt much different, what changed in a year? Ya havn't kept up very well. Stevens encouraged more switching and less trying to fight thu screens and picks this year.. This is obvious and Stevens mentioned it himself.. It was mentioned on here a few times also.. Might be the reason Smart's defense has tailed off. I no longer wish to engage with an idiot. This is my last conversation with you

None of this matters.
Stevens has admited he has failed more than once,and tried to resign at least twice..The players arn't idiots they lost respect and confidence in him.....
Very slim odds he returns...

This is my last conversation with you You love me, you cant stay away. I know you arent a quitter All I did was throw out statistics in an area theyre much worse in then last year This quote was from 5 days ago “Defense is five guys on a string,” Tristan Thompson said. “So even if you have two guys out there busting their tail and playing hard and playing with a level of physicality, if you have other guys who are not following or losing sight of their matchups or just not knowing ‘KYP,’ know your personnel, it makes it tough out there.”

Another quote, same day
“You’re looking for guys that will separate themselves just by doing their jobs hard and well and reliably on that end of the court, because that’s what we’re gonna need,” Stevens said. “We have not been consistent in that regard, and it’s one of the reasons we’re where we are.”

If Tatum, Kemba and Fournier all come up big tomorrow, will we win? Will RWill start and play meaningful minutes? Who on the bench can show some offense, Pritchard, Nesmith, maybe Parker?? Or is it as simple as, if we are hitting our threes we win, and if not we lose??
