AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Kobe Bryant had a reason to smile when he left The Palace for a change.

Bryant scored 30 points and helped the Los Angeles Lakers beat Detroit, 92-77, last night, snapping a nine-game losing streak on the Pistons' home court.

"It feels good to finally walk out of here with a win," said Bryant, who helped Los Angeles score the last 20 points of the third quarter to surge ahead for good.

Including three losses in the 2004 NBA finals, the Lakers hadn't won on the road against the Pistons since Jan. 8, 2002.

"They were short-handed," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We should've won."
