Yeah that whole "clone" myth is far from reality. One can only simulate a player not play exactly like him Shang kun is a top notch server and he helped zhang jike before rio by simulating serves 3rd ball attacks and opening shots in general like koki niwa and chen chien an do because they knew...

I dont remember exactly, you are probably right

ΥΕah they will meet in the semifinal if everything goes as predicted, if ZJK gets the first set or its 1-1 ML is not performing full beast mode and gets restricted/conservative, it has happened in all of his tight matches which were important . ML plays 100% freely when he is up 2-0 and keeps...

Although I want ZJK to win this and then rub his underwear in the umpire's face for a last controversial celebration, Ma Long will clinch it, I just cant see how anyone can beat him especially if ML takes the first set. FZD would be good news also, a start of a new rivarly maybe

Kreanga plays mostly for money after 2004 and he has extra motivation to play good in the french champs/champions league. He is basically "semi retired" after athens olympics to devote more time to his family and he lowered the intensity and amount of training hours Some rare super good...

Ovtcharov always making easy things difficult. Boll literally in his head, lets hope dima builds some character out of tight matches like this , what appeared to be domination when dima played 100% and with brains almost ended up in a disaster. I dont understand why he gives so many easy points...

Great stuff ! We need more of this !

dude,when did I say that all top players are there only because of their TT background? U seem to be so case sensitive when it comes to certain players and CNT decisions/selections. Relax, no one claimed that top TT players are all about politics and money. I said it in my first post, equal...

No one said otherwise about taalent. But its definitely not the only deciding factor. You seem to confuse what has been explained, no one gets titles because of connections and money or politics. You need the whole package , thats all Im saying Money,talent,hard work, dedication, quality...

Ι cant know for sure how niwa yoshimura will do but yuya morizono have played since their early age together, niwa started with matsudaira but changed on the way. Lets not forget they had 2 match points against the future world champs in 2015

Actually my super extreme secret chinese sources gave me this sound log from LGL telephone LGL : Yeah gimme ur boss please Random German Secretary of DTTF : Who are you LGL : Gimme jorg on the phone asap if you want to keep ur job and dont end up in the basement training with the rats RGS ...

Haha that was epic. I dare to say that karakasevic maybe had or still has better ball feeling than waldner overall. I saw some old matches of him and damn he plays the same tt and tactics/footwork for the past 20 years, definitely one of the biggest raw talents if not the best. ANd still can...

Besides I was talking about the whole worldwide picture not only CNT boll's father a coach, dima's the same. waldner's brother was a player and his father motivated him. He had appelgren in his teens to take care of him. Kreanga's father wanted him to be an athlete and was trained in Bistrita ...

You are constantly missing my point either on purpose or not it does not matter anyway cheers :P I wasnt referring to TT families only, I explained which factors I consider important Given the current level of the rest countries in TT I strongly believe that there are players (who are not top...

dude. Seriously I didnt say that all top players have TT background or that it is essential and the only way to reach the top. But on same level players with equal talent, TT background is the deciding factor I can name you at least 10 TT legends not only chinese who had TT background , can you...

Im a big ZJK fan but I highly doubt he would be the player he is being kicked out of the CNT if his father was not a coach, and his provincial coach had good relationship with LGL as far as I remember, yan an's father is also a respectable coach if I remember correctly and he is well known...

Thetitle was not wrongfully lost, douglas earned the point. If his psychology was affected even though he won the point only douglas knows and only he can say with certainty that he lost that match because of that incident. But then again in a 21 point game 14-14 till the incident, there are...

Yeah it has happened to me many times. In table tennis its common to have debatable and weird points, you really cant do anything if the opponent thinks u cheated. On several occasions and If I have familiriaty with the umpire I suggest that the point should be replayed and leave it for him to...

LGL takes several factors into consideration. Not to take anything away from FB but I dont think he stood a chance against a healthy ZJK in the semifinal of suzhou, he also admitted that he beat a very familiar opponent who was not playing @ 100% . If he had clinched the title his position would...

Yeah oh sang eun definitely belongs to this thread such a relaxed and fluent slap on the ball, he can do everything. Great ball feeling and an infamous flip
