    The day after deciding to let the trade deadline pass without making a major money-saving move has turned incredibly costly for the beleaguered Phoenix Suns.

    The Suns announced Friday that Amare Stoudemire was forced to undergo eye surgery to repair a partially detached retina suffered in a Wednesday night rout of the Los Angeles Clippers. It is Stoudemire's second eye injury since October and it's expected the All-Star forward will miss the rest of the regular season.

    Stoudemire's return to physical activity has been estimated at eight weeks by the Suns. He underwent surgery Friday morning, although the club said in a statement that "recovery varies on a case-by-case basis."

    Some teams just dodged a bullet -- the Suns not so much.

    Let's see, the Clippers knocked Yao out for a season, they've knocked Amare out. Any other players who have seen their season end at the hands of these guys?

    Wow. They probably wouldn't have fired Porter if they knew they wouldn't have Amare for the rest of the year. That run and gun style isn't as useful without Amare.
