Hm...be logic here TH has won many world championships...Olympic and World even asian games and asian championship... LCW??? not even close....LCW has to prove that he can beat TH or LD more often.
Regardless of who wins this titanic match (LCW vs TH), both are already great players and played extremely well, esp the way TH disposed PG. I watched the game and Taufik was very fast and swift on the court. PG looked a bit pale and slow, but overall, TH did a great job. WCH vs KJ: I'm very concerned if WCH can keep up the pace after coming from beating CH and INA player. I hope WCH wins but nevertheless, he is a true hero, a true fighter, and a true Msian. We are very proud of U, WCH... Let's enjoy the great games by these 4 great players, and hopefully Msia BOLEH... (sorry, a bit biased here )
To me, honestly... I think LCW will win this time round. He has been playing secnd fiddle to TH for a long time. And, based on his fiery current form, 11 wins in a row, since the IO'07, he'll go all out to stake his claim for the CHN Masters title. Hahahaha... my dream final: LCW vs WCH. Wow! I hope and pray my dream comes true. ;-)
If you were to based it on logic, then you would have to pick LCW based on current form. But since you are il----logic----cal, then stay with Taufik (I can see why you say there is logic coz there is that word 'logic' in illogical).
I will probably give a slight advantage to TH 55% over LCW 45%. Sorry buddy if you read this. If LCW win TH this time, i would then say that he is on a roll. I do agree that he has bounced back but then most of the opponents that he encounter so far has not bring LCW's full potential yet. We may have to see later. I do hope LCW can win also. I'm Rooting for him as well. As for WCH against KJ. Battle of the "oldies" - it is going to be a fun match to watch. I'm sure they have respect each other when they meet at the net later. At the end of the match, we will see a different side of them. And surely they will say, what a great game.
The only thing that will upset LCW is his nerves not his skills. Yes, he has to make sure he conquers this one as TAUFIK would try to break away from him if LCW plays nervously. I am looking forward to this match as much as anybody else.
In most of the world-level games, it is nerves that play the biggest role to achieve success. Nerves : 50% SKills : 10 % Stamina: 20% Supporters: 5% Motivation: 10% Linejudges: 5% TH vs LCW Nerves: TH no afarid at all when playing LCW, LCW: Yes...Nervous when playing against TH Skills: TH: 60, LCW: 40 Stamina: TH: 45 LCW: 55 Supporters:equal Motivation:equal Linejudges: Neutral
agree with you Indra, in fact Wacha is not ony a genie, ahem! I mean genius but also a sheer bit better than TH, hahaha!!
Depends on the quality of LCW's match preparations. When LCW met TH in ABC07, it was quite clear there was no fall back plan when LCW's attacking game got deactivated by TH's stun gun. Also, his form and confidence were poor and his weapons were not sharpened enough.Even under such poor circumstances,TH still had to work to defeat LCW . And guess what? TH even had his cheer team cheering for him in the players box!(They went shopping after the match for the rest of the tournament.) And MAS crowd was useless.Very NATO (No Action, Talk Only).Except for the applause after each winning point, there was nervous silence as if they were trying to impart nervous energy to him when they should be cheering for him when he was down.That's why I say LCW is better off without most of his (nervous) MAS fans. As long as there are fall back plans in place,LCW will be OK.TH will try and shock and awe real opponents first to shatter their confidence. LCW can outspeed him in firing his weapons.This match will be a test of Misbun as a top class coach, not LCW as a top class player cos LCW has proven and attained that status already.
