Cavs Gibson out for the series

After injuring his shoulder during Wednesdays game, Cavs G and 3 point sharp shooter is out for the rest of the series

Cavaliers guard Daniel Gibson is out for the remainder of the second-round playoff series against the Celtics due to a first degree left shoulder separation, which could sideline him for 1-2 weeks.

Gibson left Cleveland’s Game 5 loss on Wednesday in the third quarter with a left shoulder contusion. He received additional examinations today at The Cleveland Clinic, including an MRI, which revealed a first degree left AC (acromioclavicular joint) separation. With Gibson out, look for veteran guard Damon Jones likely to replace him in the rotation and veteran guard Eric Snow likely to be activated.

In my opionion it is a HUGE loss for the Cavs, when GIbson gets hot he is a huge weapon. This makes the Cavs bench one player short and puts more pressure on Delonte West to score and defend.
