I think it can be considered as a theory, maybe a bit far-fetched for me but plausible to others. Everyone have their opinions...
i would say the recent funny one would be the theory of lin dan and lyb behind chen jin's win in the wc 2010 that was hilarious .... but plausible? yes, hilariously plausible!
SIMPLE win by Lin Dan. This shows that he is always motivated at home, because he needs to please his fans or risk losing support!
i think that Lin Dan will never loosing support from his fans.... considering what he has achieved for CHINA TEAM .!!
I watched LD-PSH match in WC10 2X. LD sure looked 'not motivated', 'who care', like 'no hurry', like 'tidak apa'...I think PSH is such a boring fella that put LD to sleep in WC10 (actually PSH put me to sleep too) and painfully slowed the game down....unlike playing against TH, PG and esp LCW, LD would be pumped up and those 3 fellas are like adrenalin rush for LD. Maybe the strategy to play LD is for the fans, coach and media not boost too much, show no emotion during the game and wear a long face as if someone died in the family and that may produce better outcome playing LD.
..LD might win vs. PSH, rather easily i might add, but he still could lose before reaching the Final (there's still another Korean dude in the fray in his half; let's see).. ..wow, you really think so, eh??..surprised you are on the same side as my thinking....i know there are a few who think LD lost vs. PSH in the recent WC was because he wasn't well prepared (because of the CBSL), needed more resting and prep time, PSH was better etc.
Yay ! Let's go Lin Dan ! Recently i had the opportunity to play against 3 top 5 players, everyone will be watching ! no pressure for me, just have fun & enjoying Chinese food
it might be the other way around as PSH has proven at WC which is the much higher ranked , so CM is kinda low ranked tourney compared to OG or WC - hope we do not need to discuss that! may be CM is higher ranked as AG which is something nobody should care so much since some WC medalists, former WC (not to talk about the excluded African champs!) .... are excluded by default. Anyway- a short recap of the match today: PSH was searching his touch at the net in first game, some good rallies, some bad luck - he gave it away saving power, nothing to complain. In second game - that was close, PSH played much better, so it was a close match, PSH leading most of the game, using the right tactics, getting much better into the match. But there were two line calls in favour of LD, and this were critical situations for LD - - guys check out if you get the recordings, - first time (some points before the 2 bad calls coming up later) LD complaint quite angry a call in favour of PSH which was an absolutely correct call- there was nothing to complain but LD did, simply a very bad behaviour since he was next watching the shuttle which landed clearly in but he wanted an 'out call' - it was not sport men like! - I hate that, who ever is doing it. In the crusual situations next times the line judges made the calls in favour of LD - it was shown in slow motion replay - check it out and make up your own mind. Differently from what LD did before, PSH did not much complain, he simply didn't believe what the line judges did, he accepted the calls (probably knowing there was nothing he could change on court - that was sportsmen like!) djoz happens - so after that he gave it away.
LD appears to be not interested or 'bored' on court...LD hardly smashed...I gave credit to PSH for able to slow down the game that LD cannot gets his rhythm and bored LD to tears:crying:...this is like you went on a blind date and find out you rather go home read a book...better still, have a beer or 2, like what am I doing here, it is a looong night...LOL!!
..i think it's more like PSH taking advantage of LD's lack of motivation, boredom, uninterested focus, whatever in their 2010 WC match..
Okay, jokes aside, honestly...the way LD played in WC10 was like in EAG, he was primed for a KO anyway. Lacking was LD fluid, fast movement, slow reaction, poor defense, hardly attack which is his strong point...all these happened on a night when LD was clearly out of the game. Maybe, there was lead weighing in his shoes, LD was one step too slow.
ya right, lin dan wasn't the same this time can't loose twice in a row, can you? especially this one in your own homeland he could be thrown with lots of bad eggs and sausages! i don't know whether jia yu fans accept this when i say psh wasn't motivated this time and to add the poor line call in favor of lin dan lol anyway this time lin dan is better prepared at least mentally meanwhile i will be waiting for theories from some hard core lin dan fan it thrills me! especially the last one lyb-ld-cj in wc10
oh.. so cool to see how LD plays when he's in focus. it wasn't easy game (1:7 second set!) but it was certainly mentally easy game. LD wasn't in troubles anytime in fact. PSH didn't put him to some unpleasant sort of play. He is welldone defender, but he stayed all the game at the opposite side of the net and just watched how LD plays. It was a bit more attacks in second set may be.. But how LD changed! What an excellent net play especially at the 1st set, what deep spasms - 19:11 at first set! An amazing footwork.. when he's in, it's a final product
