    LD is mental and reading games player during match. unlike CL is more toward physical which attacking player. i still believe LD still can win over CL. But i'm so worry if CL is developing something in this area bcos his games keep improving day by day.

    I think there is no way LCW can beat Lin Dan in OG....

    Why not? :rolleyes:

    If LCW has recovered sufficiently to enter the LOG MS final, which I admit is really tough, and LD has also managed to fight his way there to meet him (assuming he got past compatriots either CL or CJ and the Koreans), there is a possibility that LD may similarly suffer an unexpected injury to hand LCW the Oly crown. :eek:

    Do you think this possible? :D

    it will not happen. because Lin Dan and Chen Long will face at Semifinal because they are no. 2 and 3 seed. LCW will face Chen Jin...
    dream final still LD vs LCW

    if Lin Dan can defend his Olympic Gold medal, there are no reason for him to stay play and not retired...

    If LD loses before the finals at the OG, do you think he will retire immediately after the OG?

    I believe whatever the outcome in the OG, gold or no gold, he will retire not immediately but not long after either.

    After the OG,expect to see a different Lin Dan in the negative sense, significantly slowing down,playing in fewer tournaments and, fans wouldn't like to hear this,more beatable simply for lack of motivation. He will probably continue to do national duty and play at the 2014 TC but not as 1st Single.

    I say all this with more than a tinge of sadness - what to do when the man says he's tired and now puts his family first, the more so when he's won practically everything in badminton.

    Believe it or not. When Lin dan and chen jin heard about Chen long s shock defeat in wembley , both of then actually stepped up their game . Strange but seems true. If Lin Dan doesn't fall pray to any dark horse, then the gold is his.

    I never believe in Jinx, truly great players can break it. When even cause and effect are often not so clear-cut, sometimes attributing it to coincidences, what more Jinx belief with no scientific basis.

    At first I thought Lin Dan wont win it because Lee Chong Wei is in top form, now that fate doesn't want Malaysians to win any major title in badminton. It seems the jinx is currently overpowered. However, it could fall into these scenarios either Lin Dan injured himself (which is so impossible because he is really careful about his preparation), he fooled around against potential dark horses ( might happen but unlikely since it's Olympic we re talking about) or the very likely one would be him facing Chen Long/Chen Jin in the gold medal match; from there the theory will come into reality when he intentionally loses the match to give a medal away to his compatriots. It's very plausible because he has won everything already come to think of it....why not let his friend/teammate grab it since it's One China anyway

    Li Xuerui will fall victim as a object of Li Yongbo's match fixing plan. She will give way to Wang Yihan/Wang Xin to go through to the gold medal match...

    Ah yes,your elephant memory:D Actually, he meant to say Lin Dan is the God of Badminton. I am reluctant to use that term on a human being, at most god in small letter.:)

    I'm thinking about doing a little short story on Lin Dan.
    But hey, where's the inspiration? :(

    I mean, he's a pretty decent badminton player and all.... ahem...
    But that's not enough!
    He's so .... er...... insipid! :crying:
    He doesn't rip off his shirt and/or shorts anymore.
    No tantrums. No threats.

    Where's the spice gone, man?? Is this what marriage does to a guy??:confused:

    So anyway, if there are some kind and helpful souls here who can give me some nice info on LD's background, I'd really appreciate it. What was he like as a little boy? Any particular stuff? What did he do in the army? What piano did he play on? Who decided he'd be a good player? What did TXH actually DO to him?;) You know, all that juicy stuff....

    RSVP... Many thanks to all in advance... :)

    It's ridiculous to term G_d on another human being.

    On another note, last night, both Djokovic and Federer came from the brink of defeats to win and progress to meet each other. What great players. Don't think they are G_ods.
