Here's my brief breakdown of the interview. Nothing groundbreaking here:
Q: Will you be watching the Raiders this weekend?
DL: If I get a chance, but I'm a busy guy these days.
Q: What does Mo Williams' addition mean to you?
DL: He will be helpful because of his shooting, and with his playmaking ability.
Q: Can you see you two on the floor together?
DL: Yes, we did that at the end of last season with Maynor, and it worked really well, so I expect the same with Mo.
Q: What do you say to predictions that your Blazer team might be able to "sneak into playoffs" this season?
DL: I think we had the potential to "sneak into the playoffs last year, and we're better now than last year, so we should definitely make the playoffs this season.
Q: What does Aldridge mean to the team
DL: He's our best player, our all-star. Him being there makes the game easier for everyone. He has no ego which makes him easy to play with.
Q: What are your impressions of CJ McCollum?
DL: He has ROY potential, but it all depends on how his role develops.
Q: Talk about the Portland fanbase.
DL: The fans in Portland are bigtime--whether losing or winning, they're always there. The fans make us play harder, and we want to win for them.
Q: What have you learned about preserving yourself over the course of an NBA season
DL: Important to put the right things in your body, and taking time to break down film.
