    Here's a very detailed explanation of TJ's medical status that was posted on the Bucks board in realgm. It dispels all the myths surrounding TJ's health and hopefully it can provide some relief to Rap fans who're concerned about the injury

    Great post. Thanks for the link, dunksworth.

    I'm not sure about the poster, but if I had learned that a rare spinal condition that I had was now repaired and that my spine was actually more durable than the average one, it would only give me more mental strength. TJ certainly seems to have come back with the right mental approach, as I've only read that the whole ordeal has made him more determined to play basketball.

    That read definitely quieted any concerns I had about Ford's injury history and surgery. Everyone on this board should read this before bringing up his injury, because I've read some posts on here that are very similar to the misconceptions he went through at the end.
