Lillard was interviewed about the pressure to win the championship.
"Frequent flow of players comes from the pressure felt by players and athletes. 'He doesn't have a ring,' it seems that he is useless without a championship. Charles Barkley , Reggie Miller , Patrick Ewing , they are legends. You can't take anything away from them just because you don't have a championship."
Speaking of renewing the contract with Trail Blazers 2 for 120 million in advance, Lillard said: "People joked, 'He's too loyal, he doesn't want to win, he just wants money.' People seem to think I'm depreciating those balls who switch teams because of my position. Member. I don't, I just stick to my beliefs. They can do whatever they want, and if that makes them happy, then do it."
"My growing up influenced my concept. I have to do it for your family, which is our family values. My father, mother, brothers and cousins, grandparents, uncles, aunts. I have seen too many families with disagreements, disputes, and even fights, but we are still together."
"I want to win the championship as a pioneer, and I feel that if I win the championship elsewhere, I can't feel the same joy and happiness. I will be happy, no doubt, but I know how much I want it."
