Mike Woodson on Amar'e Stoudemire: Return Doubtful

After news broke of Amar'e Stoudemire having to be taken off of the playing roster due to a bulging disk in his back, fans were hopeful that he would return within 2-4 weeks. This past Wednesday, the two-week mark was hit, but according to Knicks head coach Mike Woodson, Amar'e returning to the court any time soon is doubtful at this point.

"At this point, I'm not counting on Amar'e right now to come back. You've got to ask the medical people that, but the bottom line is he's not going to be in uniform for a while. How long it's going to be? I don't know. I'm sure if he feels like he's ready to play, if he's ready, he'll let us know that, based on the therapy work that he continues to go through. I'm dealing with the guys that we have healthy that are in uniform. That's all we have at this point."

Niw I see why the suns didn't give him a long term deal.. The only team willing to give this dude 100m's was the Knicks.. Every other team knew after two micro fractures his body would break down in 3 yrs.. This is yr two, last year he missed the last two playoff games due to injury.. It's sad bcs this dude was headed to the hall.. But fuck it @ the end of the day this nigga got dough!!!
