Your thoughts?

If the temp and humidity are below 80, Djokovic will win. :P

Well i just came back from a week down in Cocoa beach, (300 miles away from miami), and i can say during the middle of the day, the heat gets to you. I think that if the mutant wins the first set and gets a lead in the second, you will start to see djokovic act like he is hurt or sick. Thats just what i think

Actually, i don't have any clue on how is The Mutant going to play in this match... It's up to him who wins or looses, not to Djokovic. My oppinion... If he plays from FAR behind the baseline and Djokovic catches a good day, the Serb wins in straight sets. If The Mutant plays only from BEHIND( not FAR), he wins in straight sets...

Djokovic is the stronger player physically.

Murray is the stronger player mentally and emotionally.

What do we have? :roll:

Murray making more "noise" than Djokovic. I voted that Murray will win?!

I have not seen neither of them play this year. Haha.

I dont see why you are actually discrediting Djokovic here. Ye agreed he does retire on a few ocassions or ask for medical timeouts when they are unwarranted, but he is the type of person who feels if there is an physical factor that deters his game and not allows himself to play 100% he will retire. His match against Federer last year in Monte Carlo, he had a sore throat for example, but still continued to play and finish the match. Nonetheless, he is a professional, who is physically stronger, and technically better than Murray. Djokovic to win in Miami.

Would have to say that playing through a sore throat does not qualify for being anything. Everybodu gets sore throats and stills play through that. Really wasn't a good point :?

Just caught a few points at the end of the first and start of the second and Novak is just nudging the ball around the court because as soon as he ups the pace he misses big.

Like him or not Murray is one of the best match players around, he does as much as he needs too.

Hang on the trainer is on, could be ANOTHER retirement for Novak.
