Jose Alvarado steals win for Pelicans

Porter reportedly thought Alvarado was "showboating"  when he stole an inbounds pass up 11 points with 11 seconds left. Generally this wouldn't have gotten an ejection, but the referees also thought the competitive part of the game was over, and kicked them out to avoid further hostilities. Of course, Porter was likely still seething after Alvarado picked his pocket under his own basket earlier and took it in for a layup.

Alvarado is notorious for getting under opponents' skin, including Chris Paul in last year's playoffs, who he harassed into multiple eight-second violations and a technical. He's well on his way to becoming one of the NBA's great pests - and one of the Pelicans' best secret weapons.
