Jason Friedman of ROCKETS.com writes, "These scrimmages are fascinating to watch; especially when you focus on the battles taking place at the point guard position. Brooks is there, of course, as is the newly acquired D.J. Strawberry. But things get really interesting when other players who call Houston home during the offseason show up. Damon Stoudamire especially has impressed, showing off some of the skills which once earned him the nickname "Mighty Mouse"during his halcyon days in Toronto and Portland. He's obviously put in major work to get into prime playing shape and has made no secret that he's hungry for an opportunity to prove he can still play quality minutes for a contender."
