The only thing... ...left now for us to wonder/see is to see if this thread has the same "stamina" to go as far as its other twin-thread, the "Why Taufik Lost?" thread...hehehe
In my opinion from looking at how Lin Dan played in semi against Bao, that was not the usual Lin Dan's game, he never lost so many points so easily like in the second set, and he never just gave up the game like in the third set. It's probably not intentional that he gave up the game, but he did not want to win for sure.
Why Lin Dan Did Not Want to Win??? I should change the title to Why Lin Dan Did Not Want to Win??? I wouldn't mind watching all Chinese finals, or all Chinese semifinals, but not like this one, this match between Lin Dan and Bao Chun Lai WAS BORING It was so much different compared to Zhang Ning vs. Xie Xin Fang match in 2006 Japan Open final, you could see that they both wanted to win, they played serious match, it's entertaining, and it's appreciated by us, the public.
Watch this 3rd set between Lin Dan and Bao Chun Lai http://www.sendspace.com/file/djppcw If anyone can tell me that this is not a disguise, I would really appreciate it. I'm a fan of Lin Dan, even though I'm not from China. The very first time I saw the way he plays, I was very impressed, he's super fast, deceptive, and strong. To me, he is equal to Yang Yang and Zhao Zian Hua.
- coz LD is a generous man. He can spare a few titles for his countrymen -TH wasn't there, beating fellow countrymen doesn't taste as sweet anymore - dun wanna risk wear and tear or injury going into asian games. TH said he want to win this one, LD wanna makes sure that doesn't happen So LD is saving his ammos
All rational points, Lin Dan just won 2 titles in WC and JO, he’s bored of winning and needs more challenge. I can’t believe that they will be playing at the World Cup next week, what a weird events schedule. When can they practice and rest? I feel bad for them ...
Prolly the biggest reasons of all is: XXF is out of CO open early, LD want to spend some quality time with her outside of badminton training schedule.
Ive seen to much its getting old first was Why LCW lost Then Why Taufik Lost Etc. boring, useless, pointless STOP!!
Im sure if you listen to the commentator the girl with the strong accent she seems to know alot and i hear her voice in many tourneys. she should answer your question " Why Lin Dan lost". or watch the match again...
Strange why all these silly "lost" threads are posted by Ina supporters, why Msia Ah Qs dont post why WMC, LCW & Hafiz lost? We are slowly losing ground to our brother Ina, Malaysia Boleh!
most sounded reason out of all those "why ____ lost?" thread or, it is because XXF has been tiring LD out before the match, lol if i am LD, i would would you?
xxf is exhausted after JO BCL was done after first round at JO, BCL is very energized coming into the china open.
