"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

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.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

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.
