Quite frankly, I don't expect them to win even with both in the lineup. They shouldn't jeopardize their health if they're less than 75% healthy.
Injury report on Ford takes another twist
Friday injury updateMay 04, 2007 11:38 AM
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J–T.J. Ford is no longer feeling stinger he suffered Tuesday night in Game 5 of the Raptors playoff series against the New Jersey Nets, but a whole new problem has popped up that will likely keep the Toronto point guard out of tonight's Game 6.
Ford also sprained his left thumb in Game 5, at the same time he suffered the stinger in a collision with New Jersey's Vince Carter. Ford didn't realize how serious his wrist was injured until the tingling sensation left by the stinger faded from his arms.
Jose Calderon, the other injured Toronto point guard, won't know until right before game time whether he'll even dress Friday night.
Calderon did have a light workout at Friday morning's shootaround, but said he's yet to make a hard cut or try to move side-to-side on his sprained right ankle.
Toronto trails the best-of-seven playoff series 3-2.

Dajmo Raptors!
Aut viam inveniam aut faciam.
The Raptors will win tonight.
I don't hope we will win.
I don't think we will win.
I don't belive we will win.
I demand that we win.
i almost feele a traitor here
go Boki, go Nets!
Lets go raptors!! then i can slam it in vinnie's face.
You've been a posting King lately, Velik. Major Props.
Dajmo Raptors!
i almost feele a traitor here
go Boki, go Nets!
Nah, we like you.
I agree- go Boki, go Nets... go!
Calderon and Ford are in for tonight.
Ford says he feels really guy- is pain free.
Calderon says he is only about 60% tonight- is having trouble with lateral movement- but it is an important game and wants to go.
Oh no- my internet is acting as if it wants to go out- why always before a Raps game???
So far so good though.
I wish I could get a hold of someone on the Raptors team right now.
I want them to tell Chris Bosh what Jefferson said before the game- how the Nets whole strategy has been to shut Chris down.
I want Chris to find a way to go out there and own the Nets in every aspect of the game.
That'll teach them to mess with us.
C'mon keep it up Raps !
Fingers crossed
Won the first half. Second half is when we take it!
Believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Raps up by one with 0:36 to go
down by one
Raptors out
NOT a great defensive play, but a sucky weak entry pass, too low.
Congrats. Raps had a great year (for the Raps). Next year, they'll be back and better.
I'm very proud of the way these Raptors played tonight. They should be proud of their season. Most experts said they would not even make the play-offs. It is apparent the potential future for this team-- all you had to do was watch the second half tonight with Andrea and Chris.
Obviously, I became a Raptor fan when Rasho got traded, but I will remain a fan of many of these guys for the rest of their careers.
See you guys in September for Eurobasket.
was rooting for the raptors they would have been much easier to beat.
The Raptors did not deliver.
Sadly i was right.This series is over. There is no way nets will lose 3 in a row.
As much as i dislike Vince, i will root for the nets on the east from now on, cause i really really like Boki.
Aaaarh, horrible pass from Calderon
But he's been terrific for them
Raps almost forced a game 7, after being down 3-1 ; not bad for a young, inexperienced team ; very impressed.
Raps win the East in 2 years.
Oh my gosh! Lefty your avatar!!!!!!!!!! Love it! Awww!
My internet has been out since my last post. Time Warner and I are not friends right now. But enough about me.
My Raptors, my raptors- what a game, what a season, what a team! I am so, so proud of them.
Calderon and Ford were amazing last night. Andrea was sensational. I was so happy to see Bosh finally get into his groove in the 5th.
I really wanted a game seven for his sake, so he could have more time to impact the series.
The Raps did so good- exceeded everyone's expectations, even mine and mine were really high from the get go.
Yea Raptors!
Congrats to Boki. I am glad our series with him is over because now he isn't the enemy anymore. Best luck to him next round.
I wish there was a way that Boki could win and the rest of the Nets- especially Carter, boo!- could lose.
Am going to post this before my internet dies again.
Bring on the Slovenia National Team Thread- go for three!
Edition 3 at least.
See you.
omfg
all calderon had to do was pass it higher, and bosh would've had a open basket
torontos chances in game 7 would've been higher as well...damnit
