Even with all the red flags that followed him out of Detroit, the Houston Rockets looked at Josh Smith and saw an immensely talented player who could help them right away. 

So far, Smith has validated their decision to take a flier on him. After a 21-point, 8-rebound debut Friday, Smith drew the start at power forward against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday. Early in the first quarter, Smith beat a double team in the post with this ridiculous, blind bullet of a crosscourt pass to set up Patrick Beverley for a wide-open 3-pointer.
