His barrage of assists have been accompanied by wins for the Lakers , but Bryant has put on passing clinics in small stretches before that faded quickly in the past , indicating that he will likely regress back to being more of a scoring threat than a facilitator most nights . The Lakers have two more games on their road trip , and they 'll finish a back - to - back set Wednesday when they go to Washington to take on the Wizards . Detroit has dropped nine straight games . Over their last two contests , they 've used Greg Monroe off the bench and shifted Josh Smith to power forward so they could add an extra shooter on the wing . Kyle Singler has started at small forward both gmes , but after he played just 17 minutes Tuesday , it appears his hold on the job may not be too tight . While defense is n't the Lakers ' forte , they were successful in limiting the Pistons to 37 percent shooting from the field and 29 percent from beyond the arc .
