Eggers: Blazers G Damian Lillard On Coach Terry Stotts

Kerry Eggers of the Portland Tribune caught up with Portland Trail Blazers rookie point guard Damian Lillard for his thoughts on new coach Terry Stotts. -------------------- Two weeks ago, the Blazers hired Terry Stotts as their coach. Stotts and Lillard have spoken once on the phone since then. "Just introducing ourselves to each other, that was it," Lillard said. "The only thing we talked about was me coming into camp in the best of shape and being ready to get down to work. "I’m sure he wouldn’t have gotten the job if he wasn’t a great coach. I know he has experience as a head coach, so that should work well with our group of young players. I’m sure we’ll be on the same page." Since Vegas Summer League ended a month ago, Lillard has been in Oakland, Calif., working with the same personal trainer he hired after last season, "working out, working on my game." He is unsure when he will head to Portland for good to begin informal workouts prior to the start of camp. --------------------------------- ed: text edited, bumped to front page
