"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.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around 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.
