    T.J. Ford's injury -- a stinger, which is an injury to the nerves branching off the spinal cord that send impulses down both arms -- initially resulted in shooting pain down both arms. It has since subsided to just some discomfort in his left thumb.</p>

    </p>

    Ford did a little shooting and some dribbling drills yesterday, but feels it would be unwise to rush back.</p>

    </p>

    "It's still early in the season, so I don't think there's any need to push it or risk further injury," Ford said. "I just want to make sure when I do come back, I'm not hurting the team. I'd just like to pick up where I left off." -- <font color="#000000">Toronto Sun</font></p>

    Dang.</p>

    I hope him comes back at 100 per cent soon. I don't want Jose to be like one of those WWE tag team partners, reaching for their teammate to tag in but he's off getting his head bashed in on the ramp.</p>

    Nice, a reference to the WWE. I always thought that it would be great for each team to have their theme songs when they walk onto the court. Just like the WWE.</p>

    Every player should have their own theme when they sub in, like in baseball. That'd be cool.</p>
