Glad it looks like he's going to be ok.  I'd be stunned if he returned this season.  That's not a knock against Nene either, that's a "make sure you're 100% healthy and get your life in order before playing basketball" statement.  Just sucks for the team.

Now Melo's probably out tonight.  It has me tempted to go to the CU-KSU game instead of watching the Hawks and the Armadillo Cowboy smack us around.  Ugh.

Nene's growth being malignant shines a real light on what a serious injury is these days.  When a jumping bean like Amare Stoudamire can have microfracture surgery and still pick a dime off the top of the backboard you start thinking there is nothing these guys can't recover from.  And while I would not take microfracture surgery lightly, tell me it doesn't pale compared to cancer?  I think it adds good persepctive and I hope Nene can bull his way through this.

On another note, you should defnitely go see KSU play CU tonight, Nuggets4.  I hear this KSU kid is a lot of fun to watch and CU might be just the team to allow the first octuple-double (double digits in points, offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds, blocks, assists, steals, home attendance, and co-eds impregnated).
