    Nobody here is is saying that he is going to win this match....only that he has a shot and based on the odds he was a solid play.

      Did I say he was going to lose? I'm not sure why "at those odds " he had a shot. He's never beat joker in a 5 set match so the odds could be +1000 on nish

              They have played a best of 5 only once and that was in 2010, when Nishikori was 21 and weaker. I don't think this is a valid argument.

                      Of course it's valid... This isn't amateur hour. Djokers level is much higher in a 5 setter when it matters.

                        You are correct, they have played twice, and they are 1-1 and neither meant a thing.

                        Nishikori is probably cooked now that he have up that break so quickly. Pretty disappointing, but to say that he doesn't have a shot in this match is just plain stupid.

                          Nishikori is in good right now. I am almost certain he pulls it out here.

                            This is true but I don't see how the fact that they have met in a best of five only once, 4 years ago, should be a strong argument for Nishikori not having a chance today.

                                I disagree, especially if Key wins. Djoko is just number 1, he doesn't crumble if he is down a set.

                                  Djokovic is done.

                                    Djokovic looks like Donald Young out there.
                                    Baseball hat and all.

                                    maybe he was "persueded" by the mob to drop this.

                                      Joker is in huge trouble. Double fault I'm & he looks really frustrated with himself bit he is definitely frustrated with himself.

                                      The good $ is on nishi!

                                        I only say that because Djoko is still -500 In Play

                                            Djokovic just doesn't seem motivated. He is fully capable of beating Nishikori but for whatever reason he is gonna bow out by losing this semi final today.

                                                Maybe you should give Nishikori some credit and also realize that the conditions are taking its toll on both. Fatigue large and the wind is something Djokovic has never liked.

                                                        Nish +200 live up 2-1. Has to be worth a shot, especially in these hot and windy conditions.

                                                          Yep, clearly there is something at work here....

                                                          Or can it be that Novak is not playing his best tennis, and that Kei is playing the best tennis of his career? Novak looked poor at best versus Murray and Kei was patient and tactical is beating both Raonic and Wawrinka.

                                                          Novak still wins the 4th and 5th sets here 75% of the time, so the live line is reasonable IMO.

                                                                This is the first time in my life that I regretted going golfing....won't be able to watch the rest of this.

                                                                With Kei at +6600 to win the tournament I am really hoping that he pulls this off and Cilic wins. Then I can lay the whole damn thing off and go golfing again tomorrow.
