The Trail Blazers held a press conference for Lillard today, and Lillard talked about whether he would coach his 7-year-old son's basketball team.

Lillard said: "I won't be a dad coach. I never put pressure on my children to be basketball players. I didn't really fall in love with basketball until I was in the fourth or fifth grade. I scored into the NBA because no one forced me.

"I don't force my son, now I let him explore freely and indulge him in the world of science and dinosaurs. On the contrary, her 4-year-old daughter Carly is more athletic and confident that she can handle any program. She may be the one I will coach in the future. ”
