The field of LD's rivals getting enlarged?

[dassad]

I just know came to PC and watched online results.

21:4

what this hell is about? Fromwhen LD loses in such way? He did lost to CJ before but not so disgraceful:eek:
What a reason to come playing once a quarter and lost 21:4?? Has CJ been just a killer in this match or what?
From now on I see the field of LD's rivals getting enlarged - not only LCW's challenge meets LD in coming WCH..

[george@chongwei]

no, you are wrong..lin dan is being a very good generous men there.;)
u should know it

[olympic]

No surprise LD lost to his fellow team-mate...LD also defeated by his team-mate Chen Long not so long ago.Don't worry,LD always has good record against "outsider".Maybe this time the China coaching staff are playing some mind-game or strategy,who knows?!

[george@chongwei]

No need to see the match also will know..just look at the score..its too obvious he's too generous now.

yes it's looking exactly like some strategy
as if at the 4:4 score coach tells LD - ok, that's enough, relax
despite anyway a 21:4 just kills me

[ye333]

There was never a 4:4 in the 3rd game... It's 7:1 -> 18:2 -> 19:3 -> 21:4 (Maybe LD said to CJ at 19:3 "Com'on! I am better than TH!", CJ said "Oops, sorry I forgot, here's your 4th point.").

Is there anyone who watched the match?

This is the first time (after OG) LD lost in the first tournament after training (LD lost in HK and Swiss but they are both the 2nd tournament of back-to-back events).

LD just missed one point after another?

21-4...
Coach: Hey,CJ,LD...both of you already "battle" for 1 hour,it is enough for warm-up and the spectators in the stadium are being well-entertained too...one two zoom...ok,CJ you go wrap up the game...:D

None of you understand how caring Lin Dan really is.

Lin Dan realized that if he continued to play hard with Chen Jin in the 3rd set, it may take over an hour and a half to finish the match, but then there are plenty more matches following his match. So for the sake of the spectators(and the viewers online), he decided to let Chen Jin win easier, so everybody will get to go home(or go to sleep) earlier and be able to go to work with some energy tomorrow, which in terms help everyone keep their job and keep the economy growing even during this recession period.

Look at how selfish Gade and Taufik are... for their own benefits, they took over 73 minutes just to finish off their match, and there is still another match to follow. The fans stay up until late night, causing lack of sleep the next day, and possibly risking getting fired... in terms causing an increase in unemployment rate + decrease in the GDP and affects the entire global economy.

Now that you people know the truth behind this incident, those who were cursing or blaming Lin Dan should be ashamed of yourself.
We should thank Lin Dan for his generousity, everyone gives your appaluse!!!:cool:

Ill try,
his plan:
1: give CJ very commanding lead, make come back seem impossible
2: try very hard with a halfcomeback, drawing scores close
3: as if out of gas, lose in last points, looks realistic

his mistake in step 1:
forgot game ends at 21

maybe LD wants to give CJ the opportunity to beat LCW also?

Lin Dan most probably figured he couldn't win on that match and the opponent happened to be his compatriot so didn't want to "stretch". I doubt the coaching staff had anything to do with this. It may have other implication but heck, why border to dig so deep to find out something that no one will tell the true and admit? Anyway, few years later, all secret will be revealed just like Zhou Mi case :D

Then he should have not won any of his titles as he's kept up millions and millions of Chinese fans, causing the CHN GDP to slip. Now that's pretty selfish. Imagine how much more productive CHN could have been ;):cool:

Perhaps the fans booed him or taunted him. hehe... He deserves the limelight. ;) Not good for lining.

What's the excuse now? rested for too long? All these resting too short from LCW and too long nonsence is just rediculous. The more they talk, you can really see the immaturity coming out from them. The truth is out there of course.

At highest level, then should have plan their schedules in advance. This is called professional. They've played so many years and you can say errrr sorry, I can't plan ahead... it all depends on my mood or my coach/manager.... Go fly kite man! ;)

[jasonmarc]

chong wei is not as generous as lin dan..u must know that...

No..no...LCW is just a average player,...he has to train hard and play hard in order to win some, so he cant afford to be generous to anybody....included HH, look he has to play into rubber to win over HH.............:(:o

LCW still have to work very hard in today's match against the mighty giant killer, CJ............just hope CJ is generous enough to spare LCW 1 game.....:p

[conjurer]

give way to your team mates now, earn their gratitude. soon, u need them to give way to u leading up to the WC final so that u are more rested than your opponent.

Yes, they only have themselves to blame for employing that strategy. It's called guilty by association. Unfortunately it's unfair on the players who are only following the commandant's orders.

Another example of this is baseball. Because players lied about using steroids and got caught, all home runs are now viewed with suspicion.

Other reasons could be, as mentioned before, to keep their current ranking as is for the upcoming WC so as not to meet each other in earlier rounds.

..my gut feeling says, the CHN MS squad didn't have a target or goal to win the INA Open. They're probably competing @ the INA Open just to assimilate their opponents and secure their ranking pts for the upcoming WC. It is, afterall, the last real tourney for them to participate before the WC.
Why did CJ win in 3 games instead of straight games? Because, back again, they probably have no target to win the MS title thus they could care less if he were to win in straight games or 3 games.

Who said LD didn't smash in the match? Could you give me the source? I really doubt that LD can get that many points from CJ without any smash. LD is definitely not that much better. If it's from tournamentsoftware, than I guess it's due to some mistake. Such mistake has appeared before in 2007 French Open LD 2:0 TH.

And yes I can believe the score. If LD can lose to LCW 8:21 in an opening game in 2007, in a 2nd game in 2006, can lose to CJ 9:21 in an opening game in 2008, why not 4:21 in a 3rd game?

..and his account of that match can be read in the "side new Djarum Open 09" thread. And his screen-name's initial starts with the letter "h" (lower case 'h').;)
- 8 and 9 points is quite a gap from 4 pts. Like i mentioned before, it's Taufik Hidayat-2006 Japan Open MS Final-like (except that one was a total meltdown by Taufik)..

Hmm. In that case it seems something weird happened. We all know that in the previous "fixed" matches (say AE08 final), CJ won 2:0. It's very hard to believe that LD can take one set from a normal form CJ without smashing. So it seems now that both LD and CJ wanted to lose, but then LD turned out to be the more determined one. :D

Btw, according to tournamentsoftware, LD has 13 "smash winner". Far less than normal of course.

Thanks!

Hmm. In that case it seems something weird happened. We all know that in the previous "fixed" matches (say AE08 final), CJ won 2:0. It's very hard to believe that LD can take one set from a normal form CJ without smashing. So it seems now that both LD and CJ wanted to lose, but then LD turned out to be the more determined one. :D

Btw, according to tournamentsoftware, LD has 13 "smash winner". Far less than normal of course.
..i'd also want to see that CJ vs. LD QF Rd. match. Anyone seen a video of it, yet?? Just want to see how much of an effort did LD (or even CJ) exert out...:confused:

He played like a sissy in Jakarta. He has never won anything here;)
..individual competition? never. Team competition? yes (2x as a matter of fact).;)

There may be a hidden rule. After you lost the first set, you are supposed to loose the match. LD not happy with this rule (well known in his sobbing interview to reporters a few years back), wanted to show everyone he is better, fought back in second set to win and in the 3rd set loose by a large margin to embarrass the coaches.

why not 4:21 in a 3rd game?

why not - it's not a proof here.. and 4:21 is not a 9:21.. and first game is not a finishing game

hm I now another rule - after you win the first and lose the second especcially if opponent shows better play in the second, it's hard mentally to fight in the third. It works also in tennis.

The very thing of this discussion is that in some next main tournament LD will easily win CJ with some 21:15 21:15 score as usual, and we again will be in troubles)
