As the Houston Rockets cruised to a dominant victory over the Toronto Raptors, 139-121, the team finally shook off all of the rust that had plagued their offensive front through their first two games, looking undeniably smooth throughout the course of the night.
Although the defense is still lagging compared to last season's dominance, this team has a new look with Kevin Durant on the roster, and the offense as a whole finally flashed their potential against the Raptors, taking the team to a 2-2 record on the season.
While the play of Amen Thompson and Reed Sheppard still remains the team's greatest question mark, a performance such as this is a highly encouraging sign for their ability to lean on their star scorers.
