I understand that Horford was ejected from the game but where's the retaliation? Why did no one on Toronto knock him the fuck down? The game was fucking over for fucks sake.

If that had been Chancey Billups getting his head snapped back you can guarantee that someone would be knocking the Rookie on his ass. I'm just a little surprised that no one got physical with this bum.

I disagree completely..this was a completely fluke deal...

No easy buckets..

Just happened that he landed awkwardly. Fouls like this happen all the time in the nba. Just bad luck. Al is a good dude.

 

[misschung]

Horford had 0 intention on injuring Ford, accidents happen when your playing sports

The fall wouldn't have even been as scary if Ford hadn't had the previous neck fusions or whatever he had..

It's the Raptors....I watch every game and they have no grit. It's not the first time someone's been taken out with a hard foul. No one steps up.

Hoping for a speedy recovery for Ford.

no one seriously thought he was trying to do that.

Al was going to apologize, but Ford never got up. He went to the hospital after the game with a few other guys, and he apparently waited for quite a long time to see him. Ford accepted his apology, and no one really thought he did it maliciously.

it was just a mistake with no malicious intent, and everyone knew it. So the guys on the court didn't bother fightingover it. I say good for them.

Agreed...was just a bad deal..

Scary w/ his injury past.

if he went to the rim and not under it trying to protect the ball, Horford might well have followed through on the ball.

Ford going to the other side of the rim, threw off the timing, follow through and I dont think there was anything malicious about it.

The blunt of the injury came from hitting his head on the floor.

From the radio, things sound as good as can be for TJ which is good to hear

horford thought he go up on the right side which would have easily resulted in a blocked shot. instead ford goes up for the layup and attempted to use the rim to shield of al and the forcoming blocked shot. Al woulda batted that ball the hell outta there if he goes up strong side instead ford went for the reverse and his face got raked by al's hand.

ive seen this happen a few times at the gym myself. scary yes. intentional no.

i can understand this being just an accident, but how does a guy confuse a ball with someone's head. Ford beat him, and I see where the attempt on the block was going to be but how can you be so careless to put huge ton of force like that? I don't know, I saw Al's reaction and he didn't mean it, i think he was just as shocked as everyone was. His body language signaled...Fuck. I don't think there should be any harsh penalties. It could of been a lot worse if the benches cleared. So not too sure why some people are saying the Raps have no grit. Why make the scene any worse than it already is?
