Well......the doctors already cleared LCW to go China Masters & Japan, despite Misbun's worry. Doctor say can go(& said so in the press), then no excuse cannot go, doc didnt give MC. What badminton spectators think or not think should not be the concern of LCW, what the decision makers think is more important. If halfway give up, for sure LCW will be branded 'chicken' by the powers that be & media, etc,etc. All these has happened before, no need to think also know what they will say. When LCW withdrew with injury reason also people criticise, continue to play also people criticise, so, it doesnt matter, will critise anyway.
I only want to say: No matter what kind of execuses the opponent and fans given, LD is the best player now... (we all know that) we can trace back: -how many times LD beat LCW? many, right? ( no matter LCW or LD in a good performance or not, but i'm sure mostly that time they were fit, without injury) -and how many times LCW beat LD? only once, right? (Thomas cup, CMIIW) SO,, for this game, again I would like to say: Congrats for LD.. and train harder for all other players.. cheers..
i didnt say that, only typed..wkwkwkwkwk.. just to confirm that all know that LD better than LCW, since many of LCW fans do not accept that LCW loose to LD.., that's all...
Just like LD fans, eventhough every one know WR1 is LCW due to no. of participation in international tourney, but they seems cant accept that LCW is WR1.... Yes, i know LD is better than LCW and i accepted that, but i still support LCW every time he plays LD, even he kept losing to LD..........
Me too. Everyone has their own favorite player and this will keep changing as players come and go. For me, it was YY, then ZJH, then PG and the list continues. We may not necessarily support the best player in the world. I also support RS, for he is the only player to beat LD in the Olympics.
Haha. I made that prediction before I watch the LCW - DPY match. I had thought LCW toyed DPY, just like LD toyed HYH. But I was wrong. DPY really forced LCW to press his turbo button. LCW looked tired during the latter half of the 2nd game. So yes, I should stick to my 55:45 prediction...
Why should anyone "let" his opponent to "get back" from 15:20 to 20:20 in a 3rd game? Will you do that? LD "let" PSH to get back 1 or 2 or even 3 points, maybe. But at 17:20 or 18:20, I don't think LD would stay "relaxed" anymore. It's PSH's effort, not LD's generosity, that earned him the chance to deuce. PSH already looked very tired in the middle of the 3rd game. So getting back from 15:20 to 20:20 should have already exhausted him. That's why LD took the last few points "brilliantly".
I just watched Thestar.online videocast? of the LCW vs LD match. Well,I was wrong. LCW wasn't injured at all. LCW said he probably used up too much energy in G2 while LD was 'resting' so he couldn't recover fast enough to keep up with LD in G3. Good lesson for LCW. Be smart like Sony. It's not the G2 scoreline that counts. It's how much energy it costs to win that counts.Sony (in WC) knew LD was giving up G2 and played to win G2, expending just enough energy so that he will still have decent energy to challenge in G3. LD said he was fortunate to clinch G3.(Actually,there were CHN indications that LD was not expected to win because PSH gave him hard labour overtime the day before. Perhaps DPY did his job for LD as well by not giving LCW an easy time.) LCW's interview attitude was like he could drop a bombshell on BAM if his bosses continue to put pressure on him. Finally he may just tell them to find a replacement if they are not happy with him. Where LD's interview was humble, CJ was arrogant. He said BP's netplay was lucky whereas his luck was bad, implying he's still superior to BP.
personally, i dont buy the idea that professional players have problems to last a 3 games match, no matter how hard that was. that's for they are trained for!
