Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Lebron James is Michael Jordan and Magic rolled into one

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

MJ did define the Low post scoring guard. Once MJ figured out he can use his ability to post up guards and use that fade away jumper.. he was literarly unstoppable

Why am I not surprised that the only one on Kobe's jocks is from LA? It's like little man syndrome. Last year it was D-Wade is the best in the league, and the little Kobe fans have to whine and cry about how he deserves consideration. Now it's LeBron, and the little Kobe fans have to whine about him being better. As a Heat fan, I can easily admit that LeBron is better than Wade. Last year I would have disagreed, but he single handedly beat the Pistons in 6. Wade had Shaq in 6. Wade, Kobe and LeBron are all good in their individual ways. LeBron is the one who makes the players around him better. Kobe is the best shooter and most clutch. Wade is the best closer (not most clutch, but he dominates the last 5 minutes of every game) and best at driving to the rim.

Here's how I'd rank who I'd want on my team.

1) LeBron
2) Nash
3) Kobe
4) Wade
5) Carmelo
6) Duncan
7) Arenas
8) T-Mac
9) Stoudemire
10) Kidd

I agree with DevanE

Looking at that video of Lebron James, anybody with his genetics, body mass, muscles and some sort of basketball knowledge can do basically all that in the video. He's just a Goliath with some speed, He's hasn't done anything memorialble, nothing that hasn't been done before.

Im still amazed of what michael jordan has done in his career, he was a show men. I've haven't seen anybody do some of the things he has done since he retired from the game.

2008 NBA CHAMPIONS THE SUNS!!! :D
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I'd put Yao on my team before Kidd, as well as Howard and Baron Davis. Loul Deng is growing on me as well.

Comparing Lebron with MJ or Magic or even Larry Bird or Dr. J at this stage of his career is ridiculous.

Those guys were consistent and they redefined the sport.

That said...he is pretty good for a 22 year old man. And I think if he is going to win an NBA Title...NOW might be the ONLY chance. As the best Western Teams are already eliminated (e.g. Phoenix and Dallas).

Cleveland was lucky that the Wizards had their three best players hurt (especially Arenas). And that NJ simply sucked.

Now...the Detroit victory was outstanding as Detroit has a better overall team.
