    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">MILWAUKEE?The sight of Chris Bosh walking off the Bradley Center floor, his left thumb wrapped tightly, pain and frustration etched on his face and his afternoon over sent a shudder of concern throughout the Raptor organization.

    Of all the bad things that could happen as this season winds down, an injury to the franchise's top player would top the list and seeing Bosh's day end after just seven minutes of action caused some brows to furrow and worry lines to develop.

    But word a few minutes later that it was just a mild sprain allowed a whole lot of people to finally exhale.

    "It's pretty sore right now," Bosh said after the game. "I like to give it a night's rest and see how it feels."

    Bosh was hurt on a seemingly innocuous first-quarter play.

    He was hit on the thumb by teammate Pape Sow trying to corral a loose ball in the first minutes of the game and was in obvious pain when he came to bench during a timeout.</div>

    Pape Sow better be massaging that thumb right now and treating Bosh to go see V for Vendetta.

    Well, Bosh's injury wasn't that bad for the Raptors because Villanueva got more playing time that game. He proved his true potential by shooting 20 of 32 from the field (he would've never shot 32 times if Bosh was playing).
