  2. Saudi Smash 2024

    Have I ever demonstrated against Aruna's remonstrations?? Of course players need to be treated with respect and get compensated well, Can you find where I've argued against that?? Besides, I and Aruna actually have a lot in common that I don't need to get into here. I've said before and I'm...

    I don't have much to argue with "good faith" criticism of institutions. There's a lot of things that they've done wrong as you've rightly pointed out.You know that very well. And you know what I'm pointing out; you have other agendas whether you believe it or not, and it's clear as day, he's as...
  4. World Cup 2024

    You are not bereft of using the forum for your needs or agendas. That's for sure. You've spent time building deliberate rightful serious critique of the institutions, and seemingly insidious but blatantly unnecessary plus immature disapproval of certain people because they don't act in a...

    Well you're not the most civil member on her, so that's rich from you At this point, his retire rant seems more like a insider joke to me, I don't pay it much attention since it's not gonna have any bearing on the trajectory of the player's career Why should he answer you though??You're not all...
  6. Is any current top player better than prime Ma Long (2015-2017)?

    He can't even beat the Chinese number 5 these days. That double win looking more like something that may never happen again.
  7. Is any current top player better than prime Ma Long (2015-2017)?

    When did a one-off double win become the criteria to determine that Hari has surpassed Fan and Wang. The standard is to beat them at the big events, and win the big trophies, that was what Harimoto himself was referring to.
  8. WTT Finals Men and Women Fukuoka 2024, 11/20-24

    They need to find people that really want to sponsor table tennis. There's no point trying to get Japan on board with entreaties like this, if they're not contributing to the cause.
  9. Is any current top player better than prime Ma Long (2015-2017)?

    Let's see if Hari gets over Wang or Fan in the long run lol
  10. World Cup 2024

    Easier to hold rallies with "when he's not playing well". He outplayed JWJ, a rally player in the rallies just a few days ago. It comes down to tactics, form and strategy. I'm curious what's the assessment of the players who's had close matches and wins against FZD in the past 2 years. Surely...

    The superior "rallier" Harimoto got beaten black and blue today, averaging a miserable 5.5 points per game against LGY. Where was his rally skills when he needed it??
  12. World Cup 2024

    WCQ cannot beat Harimoto in rallies, so all 9 of his wins were due to serve and receive?? Lmao I think y'all are tired, and you need to watch these matches again. Just because Harimoto won 4 out of the 7 long rallies in their last matchup ( 3 of them due to intervention of the net) doesn't mean...

    Ma Long won because he won the tight first two games.... In his matchups with WCQ in the past, Once WCQ wins the tight first game or two, the rest is easier. It just played out in ML's favor today, plus his stylistic choices were a surprise. The idea that WCQ is weak in rallies is laughable...
  14. World Cup 2024

    I wouldn't say he's on a decline, He's having more wave fluctuations; crests and troughs unlike his straight line ascent up the table tennis graph in his teens and early twenties. I think he just doesn't have anything that makes him special anymore.

    It's mostly topspin though, the Japanese already figured that out.
  16. World Cup 2024

    The fifth set was an exercise in shutting down the forehand with the short ball.
  17. World Cup 2024

    Nice, The hook serve is predictable and the placement is 95% to the forehand, Wang doesn't have as much variation in serves as say Felix or Alexis. It's only the pendulum and hook. Anybody that complains is simply doing a terrible job at preparing for a predictable serve.
  18. World Cup 2024

    The beef is against other associations, LGY or LSD or any other Chinese do not give a toss about Fan's ranking points when it comes to civil matchups. Also he's lost like 3 of his last 4 matches against LGY. Besides, we've always talked about his rally game facing the law of diminishing...

    Cope. He's never been this vulnerable ever
