If you watched the match, I don't understand how you can make such a comment. It hasn't been an easy game for the Lakers. The Lakers were leading most of the game, but there were moments when the Pistons made the point difference down to 1-2 points. When I wrote the comment, the third period of the match was being played. Bojan Bogdanovic had an incredible game. The Pistons would have won the game if one or two more of the other players had accompanied him. So contrary to what you said, the Pistons had a very good chance of winning the game.
In the end, LeBron James and Anthony Davis played big and won the game. If the Lakers can do that every game, they'll have a chance to make it to play-offs again. The Lakers won after losing three games and returned home. Now they will play three games at home, maybe they can make a new winning streak.
