Cousins livid after Wade gets better of him in Bulls' win over Kings
DeMarcus Cousins had himself a night Saturday in Chicago, scoring 42 points and pulling down 14 rebounds. Yet, things didn't come up Boogie inside the final minute. With under 15 seconds left and the game between the Kings and Bulls tied at 99, Dwyane Wade came up with a steal on Garrett Temple.

While Wade flubbed the breakaway dunk (he also missed an easy layup earlier) Cousins put his hand on the jumping Wade's backside, and was called for a touch foul.
Wade only hit one of two free throws to give Chicago a 1-point lead. Then, with the ball in Cousins' hands for one last shot at a Kings win, he bobbled it with Wade there to snag it away. Michael Carter-Williams then sealed the Bulls' win.

Cousins, understandably, was not pleased. Multiple reports indicated he took out some frustration on a United Center garbage receptacle.
