Whether you know Stoudemire, I do not mind.Blessing injured Stoudemire, believe friend loves sports, loves basketball, have a simple heart, they are strong and self-willed, looking forward to the return of Stoudemire, bring us more exciting.
New York Knicks fans already knew that power forward Amar'e Stoudemire would miss the team's season-opening matchup with the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday night due to a left knee injury. On Tuesday, they learned his return to the court is much further away than originally expected.The Knicks had said last week that Stoudemire would miss only two to three weeks. He is expected to have the surgery within the next week.The announcement comes one day after ESPN.com's Chris Broussard reported that the ruptured popliteal cyst behind Stoudemire's left knee would keep him on the shelf for longer than the initial two- to three-week estimate.
The surgery will be the third on his knee in his career. Dr. James Gladstone, a knee specialist at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, who is not involved in Stoudemire’s diagnosis or treatment, said such a procedure, known as debridement surgery, would both clean the knee and look for any other major damage to the soft or hard cartilage there.
Gladstone said that if there was more damage to the hard cartilage in Stoudemire’s knee than expected, he could miss even more time. “If you clean up the stuff that’s dangling or floating in his knee, the damage in the cartilage is still there,” he said. “If hard cartilage is the problem, more might have to be done.”Even though Stoudemire is just 29, considered the prime of an N.B.A. player’s career, his knees and his coming to the pros straight from high school have made his body older than that.
In 2005, Stoudemire underwent microfracture surgery in his left knee. He also had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in 2006.Entering his 11th season, Stoudemire has appeared in every game in a season just three times in his career, all with the Phoenix Suns. The last time he played a full N.B.A. season was in 2009-10.If Stoudemire is to be out for the next two months, he will miss the first 30 games of the season.Gladstone said of the original estimate of Stoudemire’s missing just two weeks or so: “That is realistic for a recovery time if all you are doing is cleaning up the knee.
You can’t fully know when he will return until after two to three weeks after he begins his rehab to see how the strengthening in the muscle is working.”After ending an injury-plagued lockout-shortened 2011-12 season in something of an inauspicious manner, Stoudemire set out this summer with something to prove. The six-time NBA All-Star traveled to Texas to work with post-play guru Hakeem Olajuwon, aiming to develop a back-to-the-basket game that would bolster an offensive skill-set previously predicated almost entirely on face-up jumpers and raw athleticism. more importantly, Knicks fans hoped, this dedication to the low block would help Stoudemire's offensive game fit better alongside that of fellow front-court star Carmelo Anthony.
