Abstract: We prove the following noncommutative version of Lewis's classical result. Every n-dimensional subspace E of Lp(M) (1<p<infty) for a von Neumann algebra M satisfies d_{cb}(E, RC^n_{p'}) leq c_p n^{abs{1/2-1/p}} for some constant c_p depending only on

p

, where

1 / p + 1 / p^{'} = 1

and

R C_{p^{'}}^{n} = [R_{n} c a p C_{n}, R_{n} + C_{n}]_{1 / p^{'}}

. Moreover, there is a projection

P : L p (M) - - > L p (M)

onto E with

o r m P_{c b} l e q c_{p} n^{a b s 1 / 2 - 1 / p} .

We follow the classical change of density argument with appropriate noncommutative variations in addition to the opposite trick.
