Summary

The Lakers tried, coming back from down by as much as 16 points Monday night in Detroit, but ultimately they couldn't keep the win streak alive. It dies at nine, as the Pistons top LA, 113-110. Daniss Jankins, in the lineup replacing Detroit's MVP candidate Cade Cunningham, lit up the purple and gold. HIs 30 points included the game winning points, including the bucket putting Detroit up by three with about ten seconds to play. The Lakers got the ball into Luka Dončić, but the play was jacked from the start and Luka's last second heave never had a chance. He finished with an inefficient 32. Austin Reaves had another good game, with 24 points on 15 FGAs, plus five assists. LeBron James, held scoreless in the first half, was one rebound away from a trip-dub by the end. Playing a little shorthanded (no Marcus Smart, no Rui Hachimura) a tired Lakers team did what they could. You can't fault the effort. And LA can still finish the trip at 5-1 by beating Indiana on Wednesday. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: The streak finally ends. SEGMENT 2: JJ likes what he's seen. SEGMENT 3: Big game Wednesday. Everydayer ClubIf you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

0:32.9	I'm Brian Kaminetsky with Andy Kamenetsky.
0:35.3	The Lakers, Andy, had come into this game in Detroit on Monday night with a nine-game win streak.
0:41.3	One 12-13. They've solidified their position as the number three seed in the West. But with No Kade Cunningham, at least there was an opportunity for the Lakers, certainly, to keep the wind streak going. Unfortunately, they fall short.
0:56.9	It was a respectable battle, nothing really to get too upset about. Eventually, all win streaks,
1:04.2	and this one ends at 9. 113, 100, 110, I should say, the final score, Detroit beats the Lakers, but certainly no shame in what
1:13.6	happened in Detroit on Monday.
1:16.1	Yeah, this is not a loss I'm mad about at all.
1:18.9	You could be frustrated, I guess, on some level that the Lakers, despite the issues
1:25.7	that they had in this game that we'll get into, they did give
1:28.4	themselves an opportunity to win. And when that happens, you'll always look back on the things
1:34.5	that went wrong, whether you're talking about elements of execution in this game. They lost
1:41.5	the turnover battle by just two. They had 13.
1:45.3	Detroit at 11.
1:47.0	The Lakers definitely needed those extra possessions more than Detroit.
