Something strikes me as funny about all this Stoudemire trade talk: his knees. Many fans of and journalists covering Amare's potential suitors make a big deal about his knee surgeries and how that should be a huge defining factor in whether or not you trade for him. I honestly don't see what the hubbub is about. Yes, he had microfracture knee surgery, and additional arthroscopic knee surgery a little while ago in the pre-season. However, discounting the year he HAD to miss just recovering from the microfracture surgery, Amare's been on the court more consistently than probably any other Suns player, and more than many players in the league. Most sports analysts cite Stoudemire as the most promising example of a player completely overcoming microfracture surgery, given the proper rehabilitation. He played all 82 games the year back from surgery, then 79 games last year, and all 51 so far. He's an extremely durable player. I'm kind of surprised people point to him as being injury prone. Just an observation.
