Chico Furtado Quotations

We still make mental mistakes, like with Kendra turning the ball over, not knowing what the situation is.

When we were running our sets and moving the ball, we did well. We got out of control and a little sloppy and they came back on us.

She's so unselfish and such a team player that we have to remind her to look to score.

Late in the game, we want Shan to have the ball. We battled, and I've said before that every game in the East is gonna be tough. The fact that we're winning the close ones says a lot about our kids.

Our guys worked hard, but we had too many missed shots, missed free throws. Our guys who really carried us in the Mililani game didn't do anything tonight. That's been our season.

I think people know we run everything through Shan. She needs to come up big for us and for her. She's had good years, but I don't think she's had open-your-eyes kind of years, partly because we had Taylor (Smith) and more well-rounded talent.

I think Chris is a leader, and when the game is on the line, that's when you look to your leaders to take shots like that.

We had our chances late, but the bottom line is you cannot play well for just eight out of 32 minutes and expect to win.

That only becomes an issue if the athletic director makes it an issue. You squash that very easily if you get support from your athletic department.

They're always dangerous because of their shooters. We struggled at times, but any time you can come out with a win, it's a good thing.

They're a way better team than 1-4. I've said it all season ? every game in this division is going to be tough.

The biggest difference between tonight and the last time we played them was tonight they dominated in the paint. Offensively and on the glass, they kicked our butts. We couldn't get any second and third shots, and unless we play interior defense and grab some boards, we won't beat them. They're solid ? the better team won tonight.

They did a good job of attacking us after that.

Her biggest asset is the confidence she has with the ball. Because she's new to the team, she won't always look for her shot. I gotta force feed her to shoot.
