00:00What's your favorite moment here in UAE?
00:04As of now, I don't have any because the season is not yet over.
00:08I'm still hoping that something good will happen in the past few days.
00:14According to your record, a lot of people reacted, even Aliza Valdez and CeCe.
00:19They read the coronavirus. What did you feel during those interactions?
00:25Of course, I'm grateful because the veterans, the superstars of Philippine Volleyball,
00:33acknowledged my hard work and what I do.
00:37I'm very grateful.
00:39But we still want to win.
00:43We want to achieve wins instead of records.
00:47You keep saying that you want better wins.
00:51Are you frustrated because you got the accolades but the wins are not translated?
00:58I'm sad but not frustrated.
01:01I know there are better plans and it will happen for a reason.
01:05I know time will come that my teammates, even if you don't remind them,
01:13they will remind themselves that they have to step up as well.
01:18Coach said that time will come.
01:21You just have to be patient.
01:23Stopping a four-game losing streak.
01:27Is this a win for you?
01:29What does this mean to your team if you will continue?
01:34It's a stepping stone for us to play better.
01:38It's not the best game we had.
01:42It's not our best game since the past round.
01:48We're still looking for a game that we can play better.
01:55We're still trying to get the rhythm to play better.
01:59We're all on top of each other.
02:03Eliza mentioned that she believes that she can break a lot of records.
02:11Is that pressure or motivation for you?
02:14It's not pressure.
02:16I don't think about it too much.
02:20The more you think about it, the more pressure you get.
02:28If God wills it, He will.
02:30If not, it's fine.
02:32The goal of the game is to win.
02:34How did the team take the game that was so close to a record game?
02:42I can't answer that.
02:46For you?
02:47I'm sad because we didn't get the record.
02:51But there's a reason why we didn't get it.
02:54We wanted to make it to the Final Four.
02:57We strived harder than the first round.
03:01You mentioned about the pressure of other people.
03:04But within yourself, how would you say you handle your expectations?
03:08Especially when there are losses.
03:12Expectations and myself.
03:14I know my capacity as a person.
03:17I don't have to rely on anyone's expectations unless it's my coaches and my team.
03:23But anything else behind that, I can't look at.
03:28What I look at is what I work on every day.
03:32What I know I can do, that's what I'll do.
03:35Shai, on a lighter note.
03:38We said that the pros look forward to watching you play.
03:43Do you have an idolized player in PBL?
03:46I'm jealous.
03:48Ever since I played...
03:52Actually, LaSalle was there when I played against them.
03:57It was in the 70's.
03:59Before I started, I watched them play.
04:03They looked up to me.
04:07I saw that they were really good.
04:09So I played with them.
04:10Did you ever think that you'd have this kind of interaction with them?
04:15I never expected that I'd have this kind of interaction.
04:22When you're expecting, there's pressure.
04:25It's better to not expect and just do your job.
