Everyone will talk about the Beef Stew/LeBron altercation. But I’ll say this.. the #Pistons are about to hang 100 on the #Lakers through 3 quarters. LA couldn’t guard Tim Boyle. – 7:58 PM

Would/should the Lakers without LeBron even be favored in a game on the road against the Pistons? They’re now down 13 with 13 mins left in the game. – 7:57 PM

Miami gonna be trying to call up the Pistons about Isaiah Stewart by the deadline now – 7:55 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
With LeBron possibly getting suspended, an 8-12 record and a six-game losing streak coming out of this road trip now seems entirely possible. – 7:54 PM
Adam Spolane @AdamSpolane
Lakers TV is hilarious right now. “LeBron James drew blood on Isaiah Stewart” “LeBron went over to apologize and Stewart was having none of it”. This is cable news propaganda – 7:53 PM

Isaiah Stewart did box as a kid, and when I asked if he hurt other kids, he said “I don’t want to talk about it.”

Haven’t had many opportunities to say this this season — the Pistons are making it look easy. Ball movement has been great all night and they’re making all the shots they should be making – 7:51 PM

People getting on Isaiah Stewart for going a bit crazy but I feel like you should be allowed to do almost anything you want with no judgment when you’re bleeding from your eye area from an elbow at a basketball game – 7:51 PM

Lakers simply don’t show up to play in the third quarter. No other explanation, – 7:49 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Detroit is getting whatever it wants against the Lakers right now. Pistons up by 15. Jerami Grant has 28 points. Cade Cunningham with 11 points, 10 assists (a career high) and 6 rebounds. – 7:49 PM

Isaiah Stewart trying (and succeeding? we’ll see) to be an even bigger cult hero. – 7:48 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Gotta imagine a suspension is coming for Isaiah Stewart. You lose it like that and you’re gonna miss a game or two.
The real question is if LeBron James also gets a suspension or not. Flagrant 2’s pretty regularly do also come with a one-game suspension. We’ll see tomorrow! – 7:48 PM

Wild scene on the floor here finally results in Ellington shooting 1 technical FT, and Jackson 2 on the other end (for the flagrant).
Pistons lead 79-67 with 9:18 left in the 3rd Q. THT is in for LeBron.
Crowd stayed calm and patient throughout, thankfully, here in Detroit. – 7:39 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
Surprised there wasn’t any penalty for Cory Joseph, who was near the Lakers bench after the fracas erupted. There was some jawing going on in the corner between Joseph and the Lakers. – 7:39 PM

Frank Isola @TheFrankIsola
Isaiah Stewart, who suffered a cut to his face, is likely to get multiple game suspension. If LeBron gets a game that means he’s out vs the Knicks on Tuesday. – 7:38 PM

Stu Lantz on our @SpectrumSN broadcast: “It’s almost like LeBron was trying to free his arm, and inadvertently clipped (Stewart),” as the two tossled for position on a rebound. – 7:36 PM
Sean Highkin @highkin
I guess it never occurred to me that LeBron getting ejected was something that could happen. – 7:36 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
Isaiah Stewart is also ejected. Looks like Russ got a tech. Could not hear Scott Foster in the arena because of the uproar from the fans as soon as LeBron was ejected, followed by the PA instructing the audience NOT to throw anything on the floor. – 7:36 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Also, I’m not sure if Isaiah Stewart got tossed. I imagine so, but I couldn’t hear it after the elation of LeBron getting tossed. – 7:36 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Has LeBron ever been ejected before? – 7:36 PM
Bill Oram @billoram
Very low on the list of things that matter amid an ugly situation that could have been much worse is the fact that LeBron exits with… 10 points. The streak lives. – 7:36 PM
Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
Yea, understandable to see LeBron get ejected. He basically close punched Isaiah Stewart in the eye and that caused everything. – 7:35 PM

Scott Foster just announced they’re reviewing the hostile action. The camera just replayed LeBron’s shot to Stewart’s face, and the crowd is now getting rowdy.
Might remind everyone we are in Detroit, where there’s a sensitivity to these things. – 7:32 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Just saw the replay on the jumbotron. LeBron basically closed-fist punched Isaiah Stewart during a free throw. That’s why Isaiah wanted to get him.
LeBron will get ejected. That was intentional. – 7:32 PM
Bill Simmons @BillSimmons
Lakers announcers doing an incredible job of blaming Isiah Stewart of attacking LeBron’s elbow with his face. – 7:32 PM

On the replay, it looks like LeBron James got Isaiah Stewart with an elbow or a punch.
That’s where the blood came from apparently. – 7:32 PM

There’s likely going to be a significant delay to get things sorted out here. #Pistons Isaiah Stewart was profusely bleeding from his eye, and they’ll have to spray down the court for the blood. – 7:30 PM

Isaiah Stewart is ready to fight, wow. He’s gushing blood from near his right eye – 7:29 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Isaiah Stewart faked like he was going to go to the bench and went sprinting at the Lakers. I’m not sure what happened but he’s got five or six guys holding him back.
These two teams play a week from today in LA. – 7:28 PM

Jerami Grant fakes a hand-off and slams one with violence. Pistons up 11. It feels like more. – 7:22 PM

It takes until the third quarter, but LeBron is now the first Lakers starter to hit a three tonight. – 7:21 PM

Lakers come out in man to start the second half and it doesn’t matter. Jerami Grant with a jumper over DJ. – 7:20 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
Hey Lakers Twitter, think it can’t get any worse?
Think again! DeAndre Jordan had the best plus-minus on the team in the first half at +3. – 7:20 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
The Pistons can get stagnant on offense, the ball not move. Lakers’ zone has forced them to move the ball and you’re seeing, possibly, one of the two best offensive performances of the season. – 7:16 PM
Larry Lage @LarryLage
One of the #Pistons biggest fans _ @Jalen Rose _ enjoyed the end of the 1st half from courtside with Cunningham setting up Grant for 3s to help Detroit take a 68-61 lead at half vs Lakers – 7:15 PM
Bill Oram @billoram
At one point in the second quarter the Lakers and Pistons were close to even. Then I checked the box score. Jerami Grant had two points. At halftime, he’s up to 18 points, drained four straight 3s and the Pistons lead by 7. – 7:11 PM
Kamenetzky Brothers @KamBrothers
On one hand, Dwight hitting a pair of threes is a nice, even fun, bonus. On the other hand, it’s also wholly indicative of how rudderless the Lakers’ offense has been all game. AK – 7:10 PM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
Start Dwight Howard at shooting guard. – 7:06 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
That was one of the hottest offensive stretches the Pistons have had all season. Grant had an off night on Friday, but he’s on fire tonight. – 7:05 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
LAL just conceeded a 15-2 run, capped by 4 consecutive 3’s from Jerami Grant, whom they failed to pick up on the 3rd and 4th attempts.
That would have closed the half, but Howard managed to hit his 2nd 3 of the half with 2 seconds left to make it a 68-61 deficit instead. – 7:05 PM

1. Frank Jackson’s mustache is pretty savage.
2. This #Lakers all star lineup on the floor from 2012 is pretty sweet. LA should see if Roy Hibbert or Deron Williams are available. – 6:43 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
A lineup with LeBron, Melo, Monk, Dwight and THT is getting cooked by Frank Jackson and Hamidou Diallo. Welp. – 6:42 PM

The Pistons’ bench is playing outstanding tonight. Very active and unselfish with the ball. Frank Jackson with a game-high 8 points, Diallo with 6. They’re a combined 6-of-9 from the floor. – 6:42 PM

#Pistons Hamidou Diallo has been pretty good since he got back in the rotation. – 6:37 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Great hustle by Hami there, and an even better pass by Josh Jackson – 6:37 PM

LAL exit the 1st Q with a 30-26 lead in Detroit.
They hit 54% of their shots, and out-boarded the Pistons 14-10.
Detroit didn’t shoot well (42%) but turned it over just once to LAL’s 3 times. – 6:36 PM
Bill Oram @billoram
Lakers lead 30-26 after the first quarter. Russ had 8 points and the team shot 54.2% from the field. Cade Cunningham had 6 points and a nice finish over AD, but is 0-for-4 from 3. – 6:35 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
That subtle play is what I love about Cade
Pushed hard in transition. Manipulated the defense. Made the right basketball play and found frank jackson for three in the corner – 6:35 PM
Bob Garcia @bgarciaivsports
Karl Malone chose to justify his controversial elbowing that left Isiah Thomas bloody and needing 40 stitches.

Lakers open 30-26 first-quarter lead over Pistons behind 8 points from Russell Westbrook. – 6:35 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
END OF 1Q: Lakers 30, Pistons 26
Cade Cunningham: 6 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists (played the entire quarter)
Saddiq Bey: 5 points
Grant/Stewart/Lyles: 4 points each – 6:34 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
Took the Lakers 11 minutes to hit any threes, but two come at the end of the first to help give them a 30-26 lead on Detroit in a game they really need to win. – 6:34 PM

End 1Q: #Lakers 30, #Pistons 26

Cade Cunningham is gonna be special – 6:32 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Pistons’ movement offensively has been good. Defense has been solid. Only difference so far has been Anthony Davis’ defense. – 6:30 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Better board work thus far: 12-8 for LAL. – 6:30 PM
Rod Beard @detnewsRodBeard
Saddiq Bey (5 pts) has the last two #Pistons baskets, and DET is within 20-17, 4:22 1Q. – 6:23 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
LeBron got to the rim with LAL up 6, but wasn’t able to finish, and Detroit got an open transition 3 on the other end.
Had a chance to be +8 in the Jordan-at-center lineup, instead it’s 20-17 with ‘Melo about to check in. – 6:23 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Saddiq with a triple to cut Detroit’s deficit to three. He’s got a team-high five points. – 6:23 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Ideally, tonight would be the night you’d probably see a lot of Stewart-Olynyk minutes. Lakers are just too big for Detroit – 6:22 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
With 3 Davis buckets right at the rim, 2 of them coming in transition, the Lakers hold an early 16-12 lead at Detroit.
Westbrook has a pair of mid-range pull-up J’s, and LeBron 2 FG’s to go with a DJ dunk.
LAL are 8 of 11, and DET 6 of 12, into the first time out. – 6:18 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Entertaining game so far. Lakers 16, Pistons 12 with 6:45 left in the 1Q. Cade, Stewart and Grant all have four points. – 6:17 PM
Rod Beard @detnewsRodBeard
#Lakers 16, #Pistons 12, 6:45 1Q
Cunningham/Grant/Stewart: 4 pts each
DET is 6-of-12 FG – 6:17 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
The Lakers are pushing pace early: Davis has scored on outlet passes three times in the first five minutes. – 6:17 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
Rare cross-sport comparison: Cade Cunningham reminds me a bit of prime Le’Veon Bell. His patience is such an asset, but he’s still very explosive. – 6:15 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Pistons’ defense has been solid to start, and CoJo and Cade have been catalysts. – 6:15 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Stewart on Davis, Grant on Deandre Jordan to start – 6:11 PM

Frank Vogel says Austin Reaves is feeling good, but is following recommendations to rest his hamstring. He will be back sooner than Trevor Ariza, who has also been seen working out before games but will need more time. – 4:37 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Frank Vogel on Austin Reaves, who’s been out with a hamstring injury: “Austin feels really good. If it was up to him, he’d be back already.”
Sounds like he’s close. Trevor Ariza, meanwhile, is still a ways away, Vogel added. – 4:37 PM

Austin Reaves feels good with hamstring, Vogel said. Getting better – 4:37 PM
