I see. I thought it is an indonesian word :o
It is too harsh to attack a person with this word, isn't it?



Bangkok is an excellent city.. But the traffic is always congested in mid town :mad:

Thats cruel..especially I mentioned that I had been told.....basically it was serious discussion among coaches about that incidents.....thats all I can say...again I did not make any excuse " why TH lost".....everyone can read my post....it is just ridiculous for regular peron...did not go to tournaments, etc...basically just find any articles in his computer and make him like he knows everything...thats an insult to those coaches....they live their lives for badminton...training the players to play well to entertain us....here comes Cooler....Mr. Knows everything!!!:cool::cool:

Perhaps TH has set his sights on OG 08', and his main objective in joining open tournaments lately is to earn ranking points first and winning titles second. TH may be aiming to peak at the right time since it would be unrealistic to remain at peak form until August 2008.

Notice that even LD has not been playing consistently lately. Perhaps he is also pursuing the same strategy and would like to peak at the right time. On the other hand, just like TH, CJ, BCL, etc. have been joining several tournaments lately - maybe they are also employing the same strategy as TH's.

in MS is so competitive...everybody can beat everybody....since badminton schedule is so tight....may be LD wanted to save his energy for Olympic test then they have only one week to play another 2 SS...not easy nowadays.....look at LCW, winning kedah and JO but lost in TO...LD also. winning german open and AE but injured in swiss open..this prove that not many players can play 3 tournaments in a row..it is so tough now.....all players are human, not superman..so any upset is understandable...dont blame any players why they lost............

Of course the MSF is "the" event. Remember LD's reason why he lost to LHI in the group final? He said he was thinking about the individual event and didn't prepare well. So you see which one is more important to LD, group final or individual first round. :cool:

I agree. The Men's Singles Final mattered more to Taufik as well as Lin Dan. Which was why the defeat was considered significant for Lin Dan (and Li Yongbo too).

Who cares abt Lin beating Taufik 2 times in the group games? The precious medal was the Final.

I agreed..at end Taufik got to podium as winner not LD.......:cool::cool: Who said that LD did not want the medal....? May be Cooler thought that....
 
highlighted what? if you are too busy to type one sentence about the "weakness", give me a link to your previous post about it.

Many ppl said CJ's strategy is to avoid the net area, just lift. But that just proves my theory, nowadays TH does not have decent smashes anymore. So you need to give some other theory.

Btw, do you really think CJ's win over TH that significant? Sony did it more comfortably, LHI, PSH almost did it. Maybe all these guys suddenly woke up and understood how to play TH, haha. :D

cooler said:
chen jin's tactic against TH is so obvious. Any badminton player should able to see what's going on. Me and many others have highlighted this topic already many times. U were able to quote statistics and past TH's success, why can't u able to read about TH's weakness?

as for 06 AG, LD was 2-1 against taufik. A win is a win, don't rank the quality and effort of the matches by the size of the medal or cheque awarded.

give it up hehehe, even Indra and taufikist now have a 'realistic' outlook of taufik hahaha.

Yes, LD do get tired from playing too much too and now is more selective on which tournament to play. The BIG difference here is that LD got tired from WINNING, while TH got tired from LOSING :p:p::cool:

Stamina can be a problem for TH because, I Watch the MS match these days and they tend to have a long rally, I mean llloooonnnngg....

and I impressed with one new technique from TH , I don't know if it's new or not. When he played SDk in Taipei open, he frequently hit the shuttle a little high and put the shuttle really close to the net. I've never seen that. I think That will be a good technique to learn....

TH still can do more with his condition right now. We just can wait till the next SS and see what he will show to us!!! Finalist or Champion?????

This is a great increase in TH Perfomance and have him going to the Final really a good show.:D:D
 
LD realized that he could not win any tournaments anymore...so many people can beat him now...tired of winning? hahaha....hm..another excuse for LD's side....
 
So..

for me.....the main problem is lack of stamina.....TH normally exercuted good powerful smashes in First game...maybe some in early 2nd. game...but thoes smashes went wild or to the net:(...mostly in game 3...or after long rallies...this is a sign of lacking stamina to last for 3 grulling long rallies games..when stamina down....no more powerful smashes, no more accurate shots or smashes....the main problem is STAMINA....and accept it:D

TH's stamina is definitely one of the reasons but not the main reason contributing to his loss.

..*back on topic*:p...*phew, cooler has stayed true to his nick, cooooooool*:cool:;)
..as far as i know, in Singles play, whether MS or WS, stamina/fitness is, arguably, the most important key. Even if one has all the skills, trickshots & smarts in the world pat down, but s/he doesn't have the stamina/fitness, then it'll be all useless. Of course, one has to have those other skills/technique & mental game pat down.
 
I do not single pointing any players here.. But plays a single match in one day which an hour last longer the most.. Does it required to consumpt lots of energy?:rolleyes:
If they need to travel from one continent to another & play in the same day they are landing , then I believe not many athletes in the world can produce similar form in their previous tournament... :cool:
