    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">After a full summer of workouts in Houston under the tutelage of John Lucas, Ford is poised to resume his role as the Bucks point guard when the team opens training camp on Oct. 4.

    And the good news is that newly hired Bucks coach Terry Stotts is not feeling any urge to limit Ford's minutes this upcoming season.

    "All the reports out of Houston have been very encouraging," Stotts said. "His college coach (Texas coach Rick Barnes) said he's as strong as he's ever seen him.</div>

    More great news for T.J. It's going to be imperative that he returns healthy and is able to contribute 20 or so minutes per night for us. Mo is a good point guard, but we need a guy who can feed the post to get Bogut going, and T.J is that guy. He's also a defensive tone setter with his energy and hustle. He's going to be insrtumental in any success we have this year; if he is able to produce at a high level, our chances for a playoff appearance increase by a lot.
