The overwhelming disappointment to the Boogie Cousins decision is a little surprising to me. Just wrapped up with Frank on @lockedonbucks. We tried to look at the decision from all angles. Join the conversation in the YouTube comment section! – 12:28 AM

Boogie’s LEBRON this year: +1.51. EPM: +0.1. Weird decision to cut him. – 11:58 PM

On waiving DeMarcus Cousins to open roster spot for trade deadline, Bucks GM Jon Horst tells ESPN: “We wouldn’t have been able to get through this difficult stretch of the season as successfully as we did without DeMarcus…He was so good for us and hopefully we helped him too.” – 11:02 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
DeMarcus Cousins has had a weird career:
-Languishes in Sacramento for years
-Traded during the All-Star Game
-Gets hurt just as he’s balling out for New Orleans and about to hit free agency
-Hurt multiple more times
-Cut after putting up 15/10 for the champs.
Rough run. – 10:34 PM

Bobby Portis just blocked a Pascal Siakam floater into DeMarcus Cousins’ waiting arms on the Bucks’ bench. And then he let Siakam know about it.
Raptors up, 114-107, with 37.8 left, but just 4.3 left on the shotclock for them. – 10:16 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
DeMarcus Cousins has 15 points and 10 rebounds for the #Bucks. It’s his second double-double of the season. – 9:45 PM

Michael Grange @michaelgrange
If Fred had won jump ball vs. Boogie, forget All-Star, he’s the real MVP. – 9:00 PM

Boogie looking like a King again. – 8:56 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
The #Bucks are STILL shooting 60% from the floor with 4:16 to go in the first half.
Khris Middleton and DeMarcus Cousins have 11 points each to lead the team. Toronto (52%) has three players in double figures. – 8:55 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
#Bucks had a 15-0 run there, thanks to a couple of steals from DeMarcus Cousins and six points from Rodney Hood. – 8:33 PM
