    The beginning of the LeBron era.

    And if LeBron ends up winning the title(which he won't, but it's not illegal to imagine), it'll be the beginning of the LeBron vs. DWade era.

    Couldn't agree more. As much as I like Z, I'd like to see them dump his 90-year-old feet for someone who would let them run with the ball.

    Chuck - Exactly. LeBron won't win the title (if he does, all 'next MJ hype' records will be shattered within days of that title being won. I think Nike will go bezerk), but just his getting to the Finals (if he does) will release the marketing hounds.

    amreader - Yeah, even someone like Diaw. The center doesn't have to be perfect, just a guy that can get up and down. Now with Gibson coming on, they could have 5 guys who could move: Gibson, Pavlovic, LBJ, Varejao, and _______. Build to run, I think, is the way to go.

    I still think they need to trade for Mike Bibby. He would be perfect for this team.

    I used to think that way too but now that Daniel Gibson is showing use his potential I don't feel Bibby would be a good fit and would only serve to stunt Gibson growth.

    I don't think Gibson is a true point guard. He's more of a scorer. I don't like him handling the ball too much. Even with him on the floor, 'Bron is still the one that brings the ball up. They need a true point guard. Bibby is their guy.

    Exactly, I'm well on board the Gibson bandwagon by now. But Diaw, that I'd like.

    I'm not asking T-Mac anything until he wins a first round series, which is far from LeBron being one game away from the NBA Finals. To even put those two together in the same thought is funny.

    Got to watch the fourth quarter and both overtimes at my favorite wings place tonight. Just a classic performance.

    Lucky. Wings sound amazing right now. I'm hoping they'll reshow the game on Classic tomorrow.

    Re: Witness dominance

    Oh I thought we were talking about a Harrison Ford movie ... I would have gone with "Raiders of the Lost Ark" or even "Regarding Henry" instead of "Witness." Don't hate me. I'm not really big on plotlines involving the Amish.
