"Amare Stoudemire is back," said Amare Stoudemire, with the third-person arrogance common to professional athletes in their physical primes.
If Stoudemire plays more than another five years, tops - and since he'll be only 28 by the time his $72.6 million, five-year contract expires, it's likely he will -- he'll have to have microfracture surgery again, since his new "fibrocartilage" will break down at some point before then.
In the midst of all the merriment surrounding Amare's return, it is easy to forget about the seriousness of his injury and his surgery, and assume that he's out of the woods.
