Reminder: TJ on with Chuck @ 2:20pm Friday

Does this remind anyone else of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer becomes Jerry's girlfriend's manager when she is running for Miss America?

And Kramer has absolute control over her life and overrides Jerry.

Lucas is like Kramer, preventing "Jerry" (i.e. the Raptor fans) from "having sex" (i.e. cheering on-court play) with Miss America (i.e. TJ Ford)

At first, players do get phobic about attacking the basket after a major injury, and then after a while they forget about it and start attacking. When Vince got his knee injuries, he didn`t want to attack the basket. It`s in the human nature.

The BIG difference in this situation is that TJ won

Does anyone have a link to the T.J. Interview? It would be great if someone could post it.

I'd also like to think he's putting even more emphasis on becoming a better long range shooter.

This might be a very good point as long as he doesn't alienate his aggressive driving and penetrating alltogether. TJ's main asset is his speed and athletic ability to drive. If he drops that he becomes a small PG with an average shot. TJ knows that he won't be successful if that's the case and is sitting out until he is able to bring that aspect back with his game.
