A funny counterintuitive experience playing basketball.

[Romer02]

This may not belong on this forum but I believe its worth the read. I had just finished watching Leo's vide on the counter-intuitive nature of reality and I went to go get some exercise from playing basketball with some friends. Usually, these kinds of activities involve some type of "trash talking" to get people riled up. I saw this was not very effective and it would cause the person to start making his shots and they would even get into rhythm, so what did I do you may ask? I started giving my friends complements "wow bro you are so good at shotting"," you know Brandon, you're a great friend" this completely had them missing shots. This to me seems like the counterintuitive move that completely changed the flow of the game.
