and cut down on his TOs and fouls, leading NBA in both categories. Boogie makes this up and mostly down team watchable can't imagine Kings without him - no way.

A previous poster asked if the Sign Lady would bring the F-bomb for the first time. I think "We Are BOOGIE Proud of our All-Star!" comes pretty close

Jason Jones @mr_jasonjones 45s45 seconds agoSacramento, CADeMarcus Cousins: "This city done put me through so much and I've stayed loyal."
Yeah, I figured somebody would have to jump on that.
What you saw is a frustrated young man who has been loyal to this team and this city since day 1. And what has he gotten in return? Some of the crap on Twitter today - with Boogie tagged in a lot of it - was beyond ugly. The crap about him wanting to keep Karl away, etc.
I don't have time to transcribe the whole post-game commentary he gave, but he had every right to say what he said. After he made the comment about God's plan, he also said:

I think sort of Bible Belt-type cliché. God is greater than I in other words. Not as well understood unless you've lived in place like Mobile AL or traveled around deep south immersed in the God fearing region.

I understand his frustrations. I just hope he can seperate the sacramento media from the fans that support him. I hope he continues to stay loyal to this city.

yea i have a question, does God's plan involve Cousins leading the Kings to glory or Cousins in a Wizards uniform?
Well, he just called fives on the city of Sacramento, so I think we're good.

After breezing through the twitter stuff and postgame stuff, here's my guess:
Only a week or two ago Cuz poked an old media type on twitter about that guy's claim 5 years ago that Cuz would be in prison within 5 years. It was a reminder of his longstanding advesarial relationship with the media, and his belief that the media are the ones who piled on and built up his reputation as a bad apple.
So yesterday Sam Amick comes out with a claimed leak that its Cousins' people who have been holding up George Karl, at which point a great many foolish fans and whatnot start running with it, claiming Cuz is the problem, what has he won, screw him I'd prefer the old cancer survivor, whatever. He checks hsi twitter and whatnot, finds out he's the bad guy once again, can trace it to media "leaks", and so I'm thinking his frustration and refusal to talk after the game was aimed at the media, not the city/fans. "It never stops" = the slander never stops.

I like Casspi.
Could you imagine the kind of player Rudy would be if he played with Casspi's fire?
He'd of made All-American by now!

Cousins has been dragged into this coaching situation in Sacramento. This is why you don’t negotiate in the press. Outcome may turn ugly.
