    @BlazerFreeman: #Blazers just opened practice to media and, for the second season in a row, owner Paul Allen is on hand to watch first workout.

    New training camp team gear

    @ChrisBHaynes: Paul Allen wouldn't bite on a playoff guarantee. Says #Blazers should be in the mix.

    @ChrisBHaynes: #Blazers coach Terry Stotts says G Mo Williams tweaked his ankle during practice. His status for tonight's session is unknown at the time.

    It makes the most sense. He's not going to supplant Lillard and he's a naturally gifted scorer, so I think there's a chance he ends up as the starting shooting guard.

    @ChrisBHaynes: This morning #Blazers focused on defense, tonight it will be more on offensive execution. But Stotts added defense will be part of it, too.

    Not too familiar with the history of Mo's health. But if he misses a lot if time this season, the addition of Watson will be huge. Don't think they want CJ to be our backup PG yet. Not after what we saw in summer league.

    I don't think CJ is ever going to be the backup point guard. He's saying he wants to push for starting two guard.

    @BlazerFreeman: #Blazers owner Paul Allen refused to predict a playoff berth "because there’s so many things that can intervene and change things ..."

    @BlazerFreeman: #Blazers owner @PaulGAllen said franchise is as stable as it's been in years:"I think we’ve turned the page and we’re in a new era here ..."

    @BlazerFreeman: After challenging GM Neil Olshey after last game of 12-13 season to improve team, owner Paul Allen said he was pleased w/ additions.

    @CHold: . @PaulGAllen said he doesn't expect any roster moves in season, but noted that "things can always change and evolve."

    Agree that he is a SG. CJ didn't show me much at PG at Summer League, and he didn't play PG in college:

    I don't see CJ supplanting Mo Williams at backup PG either.
