2015 Masters Series Final Indian Wells: #1 Djokovic v. #2 Federer

[Puppet Master]

Alright, some of you might be thinking, which idiot voted for Fed in 2 , but believe it or not, I have a reason for it. In their last few meetings we all know what happened, and I remember Bercy 2013, when these guys met in the semi, Fed took him to 3 sets, which is a fairly slow court, oh and as Front mentioned, it was very close in the final of IW last year. In my opinion Fed simply won't let him play aggressively and at some point will break Novak once in each set.

Don't forget that the last time they were supposed to play on a slower hard court Fed chickened out.

I am sorry, I got some stats wrong so I deleted my previous post, all things aside Denisovich, let the best man win.

It's too bad that the Live Chat is over. This would have been a fun one.

What happened to Lice Chat? Actually, I never enjoyed the live chat feature personally.
I like the regular threads much better even during matches (primarily because I had lot
of technical difficulties with the live chat. It will always take me to the beginning of
all the comments after every new comment and I had to scroll all the way down
just to find what is new that is being said).

There is a board to discuss Lice here:

^ ROFL! It was late last night and I laughed first time I saw lice typed here as well

It really could be any combination so there's no point in even voting for me. I suppose I think that if it is two sets then it is more likely to be Fed, three sets more likely to be Novak - but it really could go any way. Roger has clearly had the edge in best of threes of late, though.

 

[nehmeth]

^^^ Lol.

Truly, E.D. it could go either way. Both guys are playing well - as the 1 and 2 players in the world should. Also the most entertaining to watch among the top tier pairings.

The lines of demarcation have been drawn in our home as we await the battle.

Demarcation is better than defecation at least Although depending on the result the defecation may follow

uzzled I hope not.

Maybe Tignor is right this time but maybe he's jinxed Novak and the defecation begins

To be honest I actually find Novak-Rafa the most entertaining, mainly because I don't have a horse in the race and can just enjoy tennis at its finest without the ulcer . But I hear you, the Novak-Fed combo is beautiful and varied, more interesting than Novak and Rafa.

Is your spouse a Federer fan? Ouch.

Its hard to fault his logic. If I had to bet big money, I'd probably go with Novak, but it is close - like 55/45 or something.

I agree, but I think it will go three, therefore I voted for Novak.

Which is precisely why I, as a Rafa fan, can enjoy this most-interesting-of-the-Big-Four match-up, and enjoy myself.

I'll assume this is a joke, and you forgot the appropriate emoticon. Right? :huh:

My "horse" always seems to be in one of the races, so I don't have that luxury - except when Fedal play.

My little white haired father lives with us and he cheers on Fed. I usually put him in a plane Saturday night to watch the finals at Murat's in Toronto, but he will be here for this one.
