I was looking forward to watching Zach, as well. I'm sorry to see him go down.

Who is gonna get the minutes? Arthur or Speights?

Or is Arthur the one thats out for the season?

Yeah Arthur is out for the season.

It's probable that Speights will be the primary backup C, even though he may start at PF.

The Grizz will probably give quality minutes to both Speights and Cunningham, at least until one of them establishes themselves.It will be on both players to make teams pay for doubling Gasol with good jumpshooting and timely cuts to the basket.

It will be on Gay, Mayo, and Conley to really pick up the slack for Z-bo in creating offense.

Personally, I think we have enough firepower to have a chance at the #4 seed and homecourt advantage in the first round, barring any setbacks to Z-bo's recovery.
