00:00It's the best of the game in this conference and that's the process of this team and then
00:24how we finish is really good like nothing to use. From the beginning, our level is not unlike now but we passed it 6 months and then we did more than like 10 games and then we make it a lot of improvement. I'm so happy now. Thank you both.
00:44Thank you both. And best player of the game, Ellie Sawyer with 18 points. Ellie, big win for Akari and yun nga, last sweep na yun, Shoko Mucho. Personally lang ba, ano yung mindset ba? Especially yung mga huling points, parang i-deal lang, i-deal ka lang yung mga mga mga mga mga mga mga mga mga.
00:58Wala sa akin naman kasi ando na kami, last points na lang. Parang ibigay natin lahat. Kasi mahirap pag binigyan pa namin ng momentum yun, Shoko. Siyempre, magbabounce back talaga sila. So, abang nasa amin yung momentum, kunin namin and para hindi na din kami mahirapan.
01:16Thank you. And for IEP, ito yung nakascore ng winning point for Akari. Gano'n ka lang din siguro ka proud sa nilaban ng team, especially after a long conference, tapos daw yun ang one game sa series na to.
01:29Um, siguro po sa akin yung ano yung last point na.
01:35Ba't ako naiyaktay?
01:37Ano po, parang siyempre.
01:39Parang naiyaktay ko yung ano po, nung, nung nangyari po, ngayong conference.
01:50So, parang siguro yung last point, dun nabuhis ko lahat.
01:59Kasi lang dupa ito yung munaeng yung.
02:02To nayasenis introduction.
02:03Before you come over, now, you want your second podium finish with the bronze.
02:08Um.
02:09Um.
02:10Because last conference, like, everyone was saying, like, oh, we have baori, that's why we went to the championship.
02:15But, uh, actually,
02:18Because of starting of this conference,
02:20My target is to go to the cm3, ranking Sheiks.
02:22And then after that, you see, like, going to semifinal, or quarter find-down.
02:26And in this year growing up, it's like the end of the game, end of the season, like against strong team, we still fight team, we show our fighting spirits, and then we show like, where is it going to the top 4 team, even like we all came to ranking 7, so I think that's my target, my project, need to improve for all the players, and all this team, and also like getting inspiration from the strong team, and a lot of things we are learning from that.
02:56And it's a totally good conference.
03:00So, while you are the two who are taking over outside the leader role, how much is it fulfilling or extra fulfilling this podium compared to the last conference that all Filipinos have achieved?
03:16Well, for me, it's a great achievement for our team.
03:21Because last year, Oli, and then now, we really need to do a double job.
03:30Kaya parang sobrang sarap lang sa feeling kasi grabe po yung mga pag-aaway namin, lahat-lahat na po ng iyak, dugo, talagang hindi naman po talaga namin dito.
03:40And ayun po, ngayon naman po, sobrang masaya kami sa naging-resolve po ng team.
03:46I mean, how about you?
03:48Yun nga, sabi ni Ivy.
03:50Sa akin naman sobrang fulfilling ito kasi, yun nga, sabi ni Coach Saka na ang dami nga sabi na napunta lang kami sa finals kasi lagi Oli.
03:59Isang malaking challenge siya, for us, para mag-fill in sa gap na iniwan ni Oli.
04:05Yung points na nabibigay niya sa team.
04:08Syempre, yun nga, sobrang kayod lang talaga kami.
04:11And yung tiwala ng coaches and yung teammates namin andun.
04:15So, ayun, nandito kami.
