I simply find it amusing how you wax such effusive praise for a man playing a game about 0.1% of the world plays.
He hits a green ball. That’s what he does. He’s good at it, but not as good as he once was even 2 years ago.
If you don’t care about the sport then you don’t have to be in the thread. But since you’re here you must be part of the .1%. And if that’s the case, you would also know he just become the individual to make it to more grand slam semis than anyone who has ever played the game in history.
At this point I don’t think you’re entirely sure what the point you’re trying to make is. You’re upset that you entered a thread about a tennis player, and some fans of tennis talked about a tennis players recent matches and accomplishments. Go touch some grass, or clay if you prefer, and get a life buddy.
Don't mind Harambe. He hasn't been the same since I annihilated him in the last Djokovic thread. I had him curled up under his desk in the fetal position sucking his thumb. He was so frazzled that he unwittingly kept proving Djoker is the GOAT. Good times.
All these guys are exceptionally careful about everything they take in, yet Sinner took in steroids and Djokovic refused to be tested pre-Davis Cup semis a couple years ago because he was taken by surprise, perhaps glowing.
Care to explain the Davis Cup incident in detail or are you just going to leave all those pesky facts out? lol

I simply don’t give people credit for making semis. Hitting a green ball as good as 3 other people.
You obviously care enough to keep talking about him. If you have no interest in the sport of tennis and the players and their achievements, just leave. It’s an idiotic take to come into a thread solely about tennis and say no credit is deserved for making the semis of a grand slam…… in tennis. Thats a special kind of stupid.

That’s not all I’ve said. I’ve also said that Chokervic is not the GOAT.
Having to lean on “I made the semis” is not something a GOAT would do.

Yeah, but the world doesn't give a shhit about what you have said.
But Djokovic’s “dropoff” in the past two years is consistent with most tour pros beyond the age of 35. Still a phenomenal, healthy player.
His "drop off" includes making it to slam semis as well as beating one of the best young players today to win gold in the Olympics. Not much of a decline. He still beats just about everybody except Sinner.
Djokovic got spanked hard by the hands of father time today.
Correct! It’s almost as if he’s missing something—health-wise—that most scientifically literate, reasonable, non-conspiracy theorist-type people have done to ensure their health. This lack of something—whatever that might be—is likely why he lost today and continues to decline / lose.
He WON the Olympics for the first time ever at age 37…
That’s the only thing he’s won in the last two years.
A goat manages to win. A chump counts semifinals.
"How is Djokovic thee GOAT, let chumps count the ways."
When chumps count quarterfinals, he has the most. When chumps count semifinals, he has the most. When chumps count finals, he has the most. When chumps count titles, he has the most. When chumps count wins, he has the most.

Immunity to Covid? Nah, he’s got plenty of that. That he didn’t just rollover like a non-critical thinking useful idiot and didn’t comply with the dogmatic, institutionalist, authoritarian Democrats on here and everywhere and take a novel, hardly tested vaccine that wasn’t as safe, effective, or necessary as advertised is why these guys are so butthurt. He was right for the wrong reasons you see, because he’s not an intellectual, damn it!!!😡😤🤬
No 38 year old ever has won a grand slam. Only one 37 year old did it once in history, and that was long before the contemporary era with as much high level competition or grueling physical demands. Nobody at 37 or 38 has made four consecutive slam semifinals, which, in and of itself, merely cements the goatworthiness. That Djokovic can’t beat a couple of the top three in the world, doped up, young 20-somethings is neither surprising nor shameful.

And when we discuss the GOAT rather than lines on a spreadsheet, the debate rages

Is anyone surprised the aging doper with long covid lost in straight sets?

Probably world #4 Taylor Fritz, since he just got his a$$ absolutely handed to him by Goat-ovic and would be the first person to attest to the fact that there is no long Covid there. But, I can’t comment on age or dope.

Djokovic got spanked hard by the hands of father time today.
As we all know, Father Time is undefeated. That said, I think we can also give credit to Carlos Alcaraz. Even if Djokovic was still in his prime, Alcaraz would be a formidable opponent. That's not just me saying that. Djokovic himself has said Alcaraz has reached the level of excellence that the Big 3 played at.

I concur.
Alcaraz might be the one guy who can challenge Goatovic’s record of 24 grand slam titles. But Goatovic beat him for Olympic gold.

We both agree Fritz played poorly. Like Chokervic played today.
