Djokovic, Nestor (they say Nestorovic is his real name, I don't know), Tipsarevic, Jankovic, Ivanovic,. not sure with this 'ich' thing btw.
Let me guess, you don't think Baghdatis and Berdych strike it cleaner than Djokovic either.

Seriously, top players aren't better than everyone at everything.

yeah, they are, like it or not. As much as I like Berdman and Marcos, no they don't even come close to Djoko.

I guess Nadal has a better serve than Raonic too.

My God, what is this crap.

Dude, some people may just not agree with you. I saw Janko practice up close 2 years in a row at Indian Wells. To me it didn't look like he was hitting the ball clean at all. Especially off the backhand. Saw Baghdatis smoke Lopez the same day. Now HE was hitting the ball super clean and serving at 135 plus. Watching him reminded me of what a waste of talent he is. Nalbandian also hits super clean and controlled groundstrokes. was nice seeing him up close

crap is coming from you when someone disagrees with you. as simple as that.

no, I'm not going to say anything about Nadal/Rao serve. It's a low punch, but suit yourself.

Impossible to tell this WHAT IF ,but if those guys achieved more than Roger wouldn´ have 17 slams for sure and Rafa woulnd´t never win anything besides RG.

I mean if Nalbandian, Hewitt, Roddick, Safin, Davydenko, Haas,Murray,Delpo and many others achieved more than it would be totally different - also guys like Tsonga, Soderling, , Berdych could have won slams if maximazing their potential

This is an unfortunate example, as he was ill on that day (this is well-documented), so no, it was probably not due to mental weakness.

Mental weakness, no -- physical weakness - yes. He was actually sick and quite ill, and was considering withdrawing from the tournament. No need to take my word for it of course -- look it up.

No, they're not. They are better as a whole player but not in every aspect of the game.

Nadal does not have a better serve than Karlovic.
Djokovic does not volley better than Llodra
Federer doesn't have a better backhand than Haas

And I can go on.

Novak would of easily had at least 20 slams by now.

Fed about 2, especially with guys like Nalby, Safin, Blake, Hass around.

Nadal = LOL Novak would of taken majority of his titles, with Muzza and Delpo getting on the act as well.

I see that you're back at it.

UberFed would still be crushing Novak when he was in his late thirties. Djoker would likely retire from shame long before The Golden Eagle of Victory landed.
