The Pistons handled the Lakers 119-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
