REALLY gonna miss him being a threat for that little 15 to 18-foot jumper in a big guy.

True. Collison has been working on his though and doing rather well. Lamb could get down in the paint and has a pretty decent shot as well.
If Ibaka suffered his injury from that leg whip from Chris Paul, that will be just one more reason to hate Paul ...
It's hard to tell from the video if it was intentional. One viewing makes me think he intentionally tangled his legs, and another it looks like it was momentum. I think Paul is a cry baby for the most part, but I've never picked him as a "dirty" player. I really can't decide what to think about it. Rest easy Serge, the rest of the team will do their damndest without you. You know he'll be cheering his ass off for them.
Lots of Lamb love going on. I have to disagree though. Sure, he played well for the first month or two of the season. But for the past 3 months he has been a complete disaster when put in other than cleanup time. There is a reason he has been riding the pine so hard and it has jack to do with Ibaka.
Really the veteran guys are going to have to be the ones to step up for the most part. Jones might see a bit more time but I would bet this coaching staff is going to rely on Collison and Butler to replace Serge. Adams has flat out earned his place on the floor. Guy is special.

Yep, Adams is the future. He runs like a damn race horse down the court, gets in people's heads, fights for rebounds, and has shown major growth putting up points down low. Now if we can get him a bit better at the free throw line. People might start playing hack an adams at this rate. 
And the occasional three. And the fact that he's #1 or #2 (I forget which) in the NBA at blocking shots. Ibaka is right there with KD and RW in my book, he may not put up 30 points, but he contributes just as much in other ways. I think we can do it without him, but his loss is going to hurt. Of that there is no doubt.
Argh ... Can't wait for Monday night! 
He was #1 in blocks for the season, but #2 in blocks per game... I think the guy from the Pelicans had the avg, but he sat the last part of the season, so Serge had a higher total than him. And Jordan from the Clippers was #3. So the top three shot blockers in the league are out for the remainder.
Its true.
