    Sunday Pick Isner Vs. Fish

    Fish has looked unstoppable this tourney , he hasnt dropped a set yet and his return game against Harrison was fantastic. His serving left a little to be desired in the harrison match, barely getting in 48% of his first serves but he dominated Harrisons service game. No matter how sharp the Fish return game is, we wont see the dominance he showed on Harrisons serve against Isners serve obviously.

    Isner seems to have really turned his year around, he was dominant in Newport and has looked good at Atlanta,he has now won 8 games in a row and he seems to be firing on all cylinders on his serve. He was a little shaky against Muller and Blake but still got in 72% of his first serves in the match against Muller, 79% against Lu.

    If Isner is hitting these numbers this match has over written all over it. Their 3 matches have all gone over the total and all have been 3 sets.

    Last years final in Atlanta saw fish actually needing a trainer and an IV in the heat and I wonder how these guys are going to feel out there today. I definitely like the over in this match and I am taking Fish -1.5 games.

    Fish -1.5 -135 5dimes risk 2.7

    Over 24 -130 5dimes risk 1.3

    Isner won the first set. His serve is looking good. Especially his kick serve. Fish had some chances but couldn't convert.

    Fish down 2 mini breaks in the 2nd set tiebreak and comes back to take it! Isner is really tired. In the 2nd set, Isner only played his own service games to try and get to the tiebreak.

    Fish gets the break in the first game of the 3rd set! Isner is really tired while Fish isn't even breathing hard. Let's get this Fish!

    I cant believe Fish won that second set tie break but he looked pretty dominant after the first set. If Isner could ever work on that back hand and get those unforced errors down, he could be up there in contention. His serve was hitting heights of almost 8 feet in the air today on that bounce. LOL.

    yeah that second set was too close for comfort so happy fish pulled it out I was looking at last year's atlanta final it was very similar with isner taking the 1st set and fish rolling him after

    isner is just throwing that 2nd set away in the tiebreak... he must be thinking he still can keep it up in 3rd set and win it by using tiebreak again
