Thank you. Whoever is their opponent tomorrow, I am ready to support them.

[Noridayu]

The first ever final they achieve in SS this year.

[kwun]

i actually thinks that KKK/TBH will win. CY/FHF never do well against MAS players.

as predicted.

what is interesting is the following stats:

game1

FHF/CY : KKK/TBH

smash winner 4:5
net winner 6:13
other 11:4

game 2

smash winner 7:6
net winner 11:7
other 0:5

game 3

smash winner 2:11
net winner 8:8
other 3:3

what is intersting then, is that in both game 1 and 2, neither team was able to smash through to make an outright win. now we all know how offensive FHF/CY is, what is different this match is that KKK/TBH has excellent defense. with their smash not penetrating, FHF/CY has no advantage.

the reason FHF/CY won the 2nd game is that they won more on the net.

however, on the 3rd, it was different, the Great Wall was showing some leak in their defense, allowing KKK/TBH to sneak in for the win.

i saw some post about are koo/tan on drug....or is fu arm injured....:eek:....anyone get the answer????cooler asking....:confused:....

i glad i lost my pick...but i sad tat i dunno what happen to hauge....no paw since 13/3/09....i worry abt him....hope he didnt face same thing as uncle sam...:(

The thread on Fu's arm has nothing to do with injury things. The opposite.

Congrat. on Koo/Tan's advance to Final! That's what I exactly predicted. :)

haiya...u didnt read tru this thread???cooler ask if fu arm injured....anyone can comfirm this???later might have ppl say:aiya....take advantage on ppl injured....if cannot win...can quit badminton already...:rolleyes:....(erm...but...why the 'injured' chen jin can enter semis????:rolleyes:)

[lawcc]

LD's broom (AT700) is bigger than lcw's AT900P
lcw using armotec 700 what?!

[ctjcad]

*kwun- when KKK & TBH are on, their defense can be as menacing as the Great Wall. For example, remember their SS Masters Final match vs. LYD & JJS, with KKK doing the sitting-duck defense. Add to that the playmaking ability of KKK.
I thought Cai & Yu escaped facing an INA or MAS MD pairs last week on their way to their AE title.
*limsy - He should still be in L.A. but I've heard no word from Hau-ge, either. Don't know where he is or what he's up to.. :confused:

..on that note, enjoy the rest of the matches as i'm off to go kill some birdies (dead birds, i mean)...see y'all again later..

They might have small injuries with that they can still play but it can make difference. :)

no...he is my oponent in paw knockout stage....but he didnt paw since round 2...:(...thats why i worried abt him...:(....

[demolidor]

And the danes take the 2nd set :cool:. Right decision to stay away from the MD's today ;) ...

[Morten]

marathon match. They have been battling for almost 70 minutes

[Jagdpanther]

Aiaiaiai... Lee/Shin lost.
Great chance for Koo/Tan to grab the title now.

[badMania]

To echo kwun's comments, Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun are typically vulnerable to MAS pairs as well as Kido/Hendra. However, they are good against DEN and KOR pairs (despite the one loss to Jung/Lee in the Thomas Cup Final, they have impressive head-to-head records over the KOR pairs).

[badMania]

..and vice versa, Fu & Cai train to beat the Danes and any other pairs not wearing an INA or MAS flag..;)

Bingo!!! Just like the Danish pairs train to beat KOR pairs in particular :D

In other word: domination? :p

[badMania]

mas invite chn to play in front of net??!!

CHN usually cannot adapt to playing in front of the net. Just look at how Hendra Setiawan usually dominated Cai Yun in that aspect.

[badMania]

In other word: domination? :p

Shhh......before our resident KOR fan hears abt it ;)

[bananakid]

Shhh......before our resident KOR fan hears abt it ;)

What do you Shhh...?
If one has the balls to give it, then be prepared to take it!!!

This dude said that Cai/Fu was dominated by Koo/Tan in today's match, but guess what Lee/Shin was also dominated by the Danes today as well according to his terms.

Goodness, people need to know the definition of a word first before abusing it like crazy.

Yes, but did you watch the match? I watched all the games and only saw the danes being dominated. Ask other who saw it. :) You should watch the video, if you could get it. They were just lucky. As I said in another post, I already predicted their loss due to the inexperience of SBC. The danes were only successful to attack the 19-year old rookie in the rubber game after being dominated in the 1st and 2nd games.

Anyway, the temporary partnership reaped great harvests in three consecutive tourneys. They were so "consistent"!

[bananakid]

21-19 is what you called "dominated"??? are you retarded?????(sorry, mod... I can't think of a better word to describe this). Then tell me what word do you use to describe the OG MS final match when Lin Dan defeated LCW in 2 games 21-12, 21-8?

Lucky???????? Get a life... dude.
Stop making stupid excuses... the score board shows they lost, and so they lost. They lost just as bad as Cai/Fu did today... and therefore according to simply logic...
If A=B
If A=C
then B=C

then:

If the loss of Cai/Fu = the loss of Lee/Shin
If the loss of Cai/Fu = dominated by opposition
then the loss of Lee/Shin = dominated by opposition

You are getting to be as LAME as X Ball, and if you don't know who he is, try doing a search on his posts. Read them, and you will know how annoying you have became.:mad:

No... you should LEARN TO WATCH A BADMINTON MATCH instead. or by the way, come over to my city... I think Kim Dong Moon(who lives here) can teach you both badminton and English.:rolleyes:

Plus get a life... I wasn't even done editing my post, and you already finished replying to my post.

[demolidor]

[george@chongwei]

haiya, anyway, i can see they are very relax and feel no pressure in playing this tournament. its always very nice to watch though:)

[chris-ccc]

.
WOW ... What a long thread to read. :):):)

It's great that BC continues with the tradition of giving progressive scores as matches are playing. We have many unable to follow live streaming and/or live scores.

Special thanks to Noridayu and abedeng who gave us most of the progressive scores and commentaries.
.



CHN cannot handle MAS body attacks.






Leading 20-14. Yes, we make it at last 21-14. I think that the happiest man in the world right now will be Rexy and of course all Malaysian supporters.

[limsy]

Hope Malaysia can get title here.

thanks...happy birthday....:D

[danielwong]

KKK/TBH only show result when expectations is not there
after dismal AE outing, i thought they will finish in Round 1 in SO
now i am not expecting them to win in the final...
prove me wrong again , ok....

[jensen9173]

Why Rexy is not there? maybe Rexy got no eye see:cool:
On monday 17/03/2009 ipoh got badminton competition and I saw Rexy partner with KKK play MD. Lee Wan WAH partner with Lee Shuan Seng. They will play on Wed or Thur. :D

I believe that if Rexy were to partner KKK in this 2009 Swiss Open, they might be able to reach the Finals too.

Yup! I saw the lines up and they Rexy and KKK are partner in Open mens double. Very interseting and really surprise me either:eek:
