But let's put Jimmer aside for a moment, and focus on the specifics of the game. The big story of the night was DeMarcus Cousins. Cousins was ejected in the third quarter, putting him at 15 technical fouls for the season. One more this season will result in a mandatory one-game suspension.

Cousins received the first technical for jawing at the refs after what Cousins felt was a ticky-tack foul call. We don't know what Cousins said specifically, but on the replay he was laughing as he made his comments. Despite the laughter, it drew the technical, catching Cousins by surprise.

Worth noting, the Kings had cut the Rockets lead to 15 when Cousins was ejected. It was the closest the Kings had been to Houston since the opening minutes of the first quarter. The game unraveled for good after the ejection.

After the game, Cousins apologized via Twitter:

Our own Blake Ellington also got some quotes from Cousins' teammates after the game.
