If they can shut down Lebron, why didn't they last year? Cleveland is running out what appears to be a pretty similar squad, Detroit won 12 fewer games.

There won't be any 5 game series' after the first round in the East, the top 4 teams are all pretty close to each other. People seem to have the impression that Detroit was dominant this season, they only won 6 more games than the Raptors.

[/ QUOTE ]Detroit was a much better team after the Webber trade. In fact, the only team that really seemed to be able to compete with them after that trade was a healthy Wizards team, who for whatever reason always played well against the Pistons.
