Noteworthy: 11/26/2013

Reaction:
Nets won last night and Jason Kidd's reaction shows that their 2-point win against the lowly Raptors was one of those rub-the-forehead-in-relief victories.


Switching Places:  While Obama is in L.A., the Lakers went to D.C. and lost a close one.

John Wall hooped pretty well and backed up the idea that if you're going to ignore two wide open teammates on a fast break, you better do a 360 or something.



Overshadowed
Arron Affalo is quietly having a really nice year averaging 22 pts, 4 reb, 4 ast, and a sniper-ly 2.7 threes/game.  Last night he scored 26 points on 4 threes, and 2 steals as the Magic beat the Hawks.

Why aren't people really noticing double-A?  Probably cause he has a rookie teammate dunking over multiple members of the other team.



Quote
Warriors won last night, ending their 3 game losing streak, against the Pelicans.

New Orleans' coach, Monty Williams, described his team's one point loss pretty well, saying "all those 'my bad' plays just added up tonight".  That is a really hip way of describing perfectly the struggles of a team whose all-star point guard is turning the ball almost four times a game.  Also, a barely-20 year-old Anthony Davis is still learning how to become this team's leader and command the ball down the stretch in close games all whilst sporting a unibrow, so the Pelicans have got plenty of growing up and probably waxing to do.
