Lets just make this a guess thread since no one really knows when TJ is coming back.

I predict February 11, hosting the San Antonio Spurs.

Hopefully soon, Doctors have cleared him if i remember correctly. Right now hes waiting on his mental part of the game. (Ie. Scared) and rightfully so.

Right now he's in Houston working back into game shape. My guess will be around Feb..before the allstar break or after it.

The way Colangelo was talking during the McCowan interview the other day, BC seems to think its mostly mental with TJ and that he's probably capable of coming back anytime.. He said something like "He's in Houston working out with John Lucas and its 80% mental and we just have to help TJ get prepared mentally to come back"... I got the vibe that he was getting a little impatient with TJ...

He definitely needs to come back before we start the last 2/3rds of the season after the All-Star break...

Yup, and TJ should do a WWE like entrance when he comes out, then Chuck Swirsky would do his best Jim Ross imitation "By God, it's TJ Ford!!!! As God is my witness, I have never seen anything like this!!!! Look at Horford's face, he looks like he seen a ghost!!!'

Oh well, got to stop drinking now...

:rofl: I would love to see Chuck do that, and it would be even better if he could say all that with just his mouth open, lol, Jim Ross style.

It would be cool if The Raptor (mascot) hockey checks Al Horford into the stands and rips off his costume revealing that its actually TJ Ford! That would be WWEsque.

Yup, he would need to do it with a chair though, you can't attack someone with a chair, that wouldn't be WWE.

Return to Toronto Raptors
