I'll give the Raps credit with this one. Though LA really barely showed up and didn't bother moving their legs, the Raps were playing hard and more importantly hitting their shots. Ross played great. I was wondering WTH Butler was doing at the end, but I'm thinking it was because of the last minute Ross dunk he decided to postpone the celebration. I'd have actually liked if the Raps fouled on the inbound and Casey called a timeout, because it was really a dick move. It's nice to see Valanciunas back, though something tells me he was rushed - he's very hesitant to assert himself with his arm and was guarding it on every rebound. To me he shoudl have been held off a week or two to just practice, but I'm not a doctor, so whatever.
