The Los Angeles Lakers needed double overtime and two big threes from LeBron James to eventually take down the Detroit Pistons 135-129. The King, who is 36 years old, played 46 minutes and scored 33 points, saving the day for the defending NBA champions.

After the game, LeBron joked that two overtimes are too much for him at this point of his career and that it ruined his plans of getting home to enjoy some wine.

“My heart isn’t sustainable for two overtimes at this point in my career…I was ready to get home and get to a bottle of wine,” James said.

This was the fourth straight win for the Lakers, which moved them to the second place in the Western Conference with 18 wins and 6 losses. The Utah Jazz are the leaders of the West with a 18-5 record.
