He didn't hit a great forehand on the preceding point (looked like a nervy stroke) so I guess he figured if he applied the pressure, maybe he could force an error out of Djoker or at worse a return that he could volley for a winner. I think you just gotta tip your hat to Novak, he hit a great passing shot in a pressure situation.
