It is an easy game for the Lakers. The Piston is at the bottom of the Eastern Conference and with AD, Lebron and Westbrook on the floor, I do not think the Pistons even stand a chance against them.

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.

I was just thinking if you lead 7 to double digits in 3 out of 4 quarters of the game and never trailed even for 1 second in the game, it is an easy game. When AD easily imposes his will inside the paint, and Lebron easily cutting/driving inside and scoring, it is an easy game. When there is only 1 real threat on the opponent team, that only caught fire in the game and when they only come close when either AD or Lebron is out or when only the second unit is in playing, it is an easy game.

Bogdanovic made the game interesting though when he caught fire in the third quarter. Those catch-and-shoot was near perfect. But with just 1 player catching fire with the Pistons and the others don't even score half the score of Bogdanovic, no rebound, and no assists from other players, how can I say it was a hard-fought battle for the Lakers?
