Nation Discussion: Did the West just get tougher?

Denver has traded All-Star guard Allen Iverson to Detroit in exchange for Chauncey Billups and Antonio McDyess.

What does that mean for Lakers fans? The Western Conference might have just got a little bit tougher.

Chauncey Billups brings a defensive midset to Denver, one that has been greatly needed — while Detriot gets one of the top offensive players of his era.

Do you see this shaking up the West? How much better did Denver get, if they got better at all. Does this make the Lakers road to the Finals even more difficult?

Sound-off!
