Amare Stoudemire Out for the Year
Closed Published by CJ April 5th, 2006 on Phoenix Suns News, Suns Scores, Game Recaps & CommentaryIt sounds like Amare Stoudemire will not return to the court again this year. The latest news indicates that STAT will undergoe arthroscopic surgery on his right knee this week. This is not the same knee he had microfracture surgery on in October (was left knee). It would seem that all the added pressure he’s added to the right knee in his attempt to come back has actually caused it to break down.
“In addition to the inflammation in his calves and thighs, MRIs showed Amaré Stoudemire had a fluid buildup, known as a Baker’s cyst, on the back of the right knee, which is another possible source of the pain he experienced Monday night before halting his comeback attempt.“ - Jerry Brown, Easy Valley Tribune
I guess it’s better to know now that Amare will not return - this should allow the guys on the court to focus on winning instead of wondering if Stoudemire will be back. Click here for previous Amare Stoudemire injury reports.
The Suns still have a decent chance to make a run in the playoffs with their current lineup. They are faster & can put up more points than any other team in the league. If the defense can step up for them against the Mavs and Spurs in the later rounds of the playoffs, I think they could make it to the NBA Finals.
In game news, the Suns will try and clinch the Pacific Division title this week. They play the Los Angeles Clippers tonight, so they should be able to rap it up with a win.

I guess now I’ll have to place an order for the CD when it is released in May. *sigh* Anyone interested in donating an x86 PC (preferably XP Pro, but I’d take XP Home […]
A few weeks ago during the Futuregen Conference here in Pheonix, I went out for some drinks and appetizers with some very interesting/smart/kind people. There with me were my friends Dan Kimball, JJ Peterson, Zack Newsome and while sipping some ale I had the chance of meeting Shane Hipps (Actually, Shane and I had […]
Web Apps vs. Desktop Apps
Closed Published by B. Willey April 3rd, 2006 on finding Monsuun | circa 2006I love the web. I would much rather produce documents on the web and access them anywhere than have to throw files on a thumbdrive and copy them to the next computer that I sit down at (FolderShare helps with this, but there’re still limitations). I thought that Writely.com had a shot as a web […]
