A
disappointing loss last night to the Raptors, breaking the Hawks
three-game winning streak. But, more than the loss, the defining moment of the
evening was the scary moment when a foul by Al Horford near the end of the game
sent Toronto point guard TJ Ford sprawling to the floor. Ford was down for
several minutes, which is particularly scary given his injury history (Ford
missed a season-and-a-half with a spinal condition after going down hard in an
another NBA game) and his diminutive stature.
Happily, it appears Ford is going to be ok, and is on his way back to Toronto for further tests. As Sekou Smith reported in his blog today, several Hawks made their way to Piedmont Hospital last night to check on Ford, including Horford. No one ever wants to see anyone get hurt, and everyone realizes that last night's incident was an innocent mistake. Here's to hoping Ford is back on the court as soon as possible. Onto the links:
