All right here we are ready for the tip off knights comments here and Harry West Jim and KJ Bradley. Gets the ball after the 90 Minute Tip underneath to Crawford looking for Stratton who's making the start today and he draws a foul

shooting to the interesting to post offense they're high and low and Alex Crawford taking it at the top and then talking to right over to stren

got the knights in white and the comments in black today straight and hits the first one and he's getting the start over qubit today

yeah interesting. Don't don't know qubit was out our last home game here and then go look at the stats. Stratton getting the nod.

We have Brandon Andrews with the ball is tip but recovered by Walton. Now Marcus has it back out to Walton over to the leading scorer of the PCAC spy spy V word now back to Marcus. There's Andrews Marcus word takes it. airball from Thomas Marcus and the Knights are going to take it

per usual great defense by the Knights a defense by the Knights forcing them to very very late and a very deep shot to get that in before the shot clock.

Yeah,

good start for the knights on that

defensive end seems to be some issue with the clock or something alright here we go. Love is going to inbound it to Al Green

shooting 40% from the three so we'll be actually see him.

Stratton to love love driving in making a play puts it up no good rebound Alex Crawford back out to Bradley who is unable to collect it

all right, word bring it up with Crawford on him.

Godly man pressure

was Andrews with a three no good Stratton with the rebound pushing up court Bradley covered by word screen from Stratton for the love

wow that's really interesting that they've got spy V word down there the small man below

and there you go. Yeah, there's a reason for it.

Quick hands.

Oh boy. The comments drive it back. That was Oh Gabor. But he gets called for the travel. It's gonna stay with the Knights still two zero 1813 left in the first half

Charlton's. Substituting for both of his backyard players,

bringing in Kevin Moore as well as Gonzalez. Kenny Gonzalez. Was Crawford with the ball at the point making a move on wall in puts it up off the glass and in

nice love red light moved to the left hand where they're really isolated. Crawford there to get him as

Angela gives it back to Marcus almost loses it but they're able to collect it with 20 on the shot clock. Marcus with the ball

knights back in a zone a one to two zone.

Mark is trying to make a play he loses the ball and it looks like Kevin Love recovers it still fighting off some comments but he's able to find out it's Crawford he's gonna take it back the other way and he's gonna go right to the basket. almost lose that fight straight and open to the corner. No good on the three and it's comments ball word with the rebound. Is Andrews and word takes the deep three no good rebound from Kevin Moore

you had a good look at it or the CAC scoring leader

Kevin Love driving in kicks it out to an open Gonzales drives in and there's love open from three and he's good.

TV love is money from threes the number two player in PCAC with a 44% shooting average from beyond the arc so he gets connected early and that's a good thing for the knights to see him doing his thing

you do not want to leave him open there around the perimeter and we've known that Yep, and I was

another good thing for the nights too was that first shot by word for the comments he got a pretty clean look at it and missed that down on there and so the nights are gonna really need to step out on him word shooting 42% 33% from three so maybe that's not his forte for sure. But he's also got a you know 42% from the field so he's he'll find his shots. On zone trap here.

Andrew gets followed by love can be the Knights first follow the game

both teams sticking with the same lineups are now the Knights rather have brought in camber off and cubit relief Stratton and Crawford Palomar will stick with the same five there's word over to Marcus. Word open from three in and out no good and Cuba gets the rebound but it gets poked away by Marcus but it goes out of bounds off of him.

So that's really interesting coach Charles is really going to his bench early. It's got a big bench and he uses it. Now given his for his front quarter arrest starting front court.

The only starter remaining out there as Kevie love screen from cubit love looking for space the ball gets poked out it's gonna stay with the Knights

for cans by wood with a little wraparound poke out

Gonzales, the inbound to love almost batted away but he recovers it gets tipped again there's word going the other way finding a fast break Kevin Moore comes to help off the front iron but it has recovered by Marcus for the first points for the comments. And a steal from word he saw that coming from a mile away and he took it and got to solace with a ball. A defense chant from Palomar right now they're feeling they're feeling good. It's Gonzales to love

I'll hold it for a second there 12 seconds on the shot clock. More with the three no good camera with the tip Gonzalez with the rebound and they're going to reset everything up with a new shot clock.

That is a full shot clock reset to

Ken Gonzales driving in finds Canberra off who are unable to get that ball in the basket and there's wood pushing word pushing the other way. Puts it up off the glass and in and that six quick points for the comments. And I decide to push the pace and not get stuck in that trap again is love Gonzalez over two more to camber off. Out to love he takes the three and he nails it that's two for two on love on for love on the day. Good

code no look pass across the key from Canberra off right to his open. sharpshooter loves the

word to Marcus. Over to Olga Dora Oh Gabor, rather back to Word who drives the basket Dylan cubit with a great block. Love almost loses it he's pushing it back the other way. Out to Gonzalez. But love travels before.

And love was right there. He seems to be a little hesitant when he gets down in the down deep. Not exactly knowing what he's doing much more comfortable behind the art.

Kenny Gonzalez Kevi love and camber off. We're going to be relieved by Al Green, Alex Crawford and KJ Bradley, and the comments are sticking with the top five There's Marcus down to wall in

looks like just tipped away out of bounds but stays with the comments. 13 seconds on the shot clock. There's Andrews driving in finding old books overboard. Trying to make a move on Kevin Moore. And he's gonna get called for the trap. Oh no. Three in the key. Three and the key three in the key. His foot. His foot was sliding a little bit so I thought that was gonna get called there but it did not 10 six nights 1341 left and a half ounce Crawford with the ball. Driving in on Walton loses it. He's able to save it out tomorrow. That seems impossible. There's green with the ball. Screen from Crawford. Over to Bradley with a deep three no good and the rebound is going to be Marcus. Taking it up covered by Crawford putting pressure on him out to Andrews finds Oberg overbore in the corner, rebound from wall in and he puts it back up and that's eight points for the comments.

Palomar is second offensive rebounds. Rebounding well tonight

there's more screen from Cuba over to green, green driving into the basket puts it up right around the rim no good. And the ball goes out of balance off the Knights.

Knights. Tad bit cold here. Three for nine from the field 33%

There's some urgency in this game. Seven minutes or so definitely a higher pace game from both teams that we've broadcasted in a little while.

Looks like spy V came back in by the word

last ball from Palomar covered by love but then he gets followed there.

First fell on word

not many follows in this game. Fortunately, we've been moving the games have been moving fast they've been moving fast and the clock has barely stopped due to how few follow up. I want to say only two free throws so far today. Yep. Our green going to embark on it nights bought by two covered by Marcus

night's starting lineup is back in as green with the ball. Going up with it with the left hand a beautiful drive to the basket quick move

to the hoop they're taking advantage of a little bit of traffic and the key

is a Daegu is in as well as maphis Now first change of players is Mathis with the three speaking of rebound back to Mathis underneath to Walton was able to get Stratton the jump Stratton

did a good job not getting a foul on Allen

Bradley 1210 knights ends up back off the Bradley who takes the very covered is that a three or two deep too deep too and he sinks it

first points to the evening for Bradley thrown

to the corner barely saved by math is who kicks it way out green going for the steel and it looks like the Knights are going to keep it or the Comets are gonna keep it rather open jumpshot no good from is Daegu there's Bradley going the other way to the rebound from the Knights. Crawford with a mid range jumper open in the soft touch rolls at end

of a feeling he's going to need to hit a few more there to then open up that underneath for him to move. That's a really good shot for him.

Wow deep three and it is good. That's a Zed daigou with the three pointer was Crawford driving in on Walton puts the ball up and he is starting to get going now. Word up to Mathis finds Walton in the center. Stratton on him playing some tough defense bounces gets the bounce though over Mathis are overstretched and and and green there from Walton

comments doing a good job of breaking the press by getting it down quickly.

As Crawford taking the ball up one on one with Walton Draza follow the comments are showing strong physicality to match with the with the night sighs

and the refs are not not calling fouls so we've got a physical game here

Miss Gonzalez is coming in he is going to inbound it really if you really Bradley there's green with the open three and he nails it the three pointers I want to say are a bit of the story for the Knights taking this lead to from love one from Green whereas Marcus driving in lose the ball it's on the ground there's Andrews I believe with it. And he calls a timeout yes

so yeah, the the Knights are you know putting the press on full court but the comments are really passing down deep and to get it down the sidelines to take advantage of maybe some quick quick buckets to try to break that. That's a really going to need to watch that. Got a few stats here. The comments seven for 16 from the field 43% one for six from behind the arc 16% The Knights three for six from beyond the arc so 50% Shooting eight for 14 from the field we're looking really close on pretty much everything else. Rebounding eight to seven for the Knights assists the Knights have a couple more. We're still playing a pretty even game here six point lead at 10 o'clock. 1010 minutes right under 10 minutes.

I would say I think I think the assessment is correct. I mean it's exactly six points and that's the only the only stat line that is a little more skewed is the threes made right? The Knights are three for six while the comments are one for six so far. But although to be concerned for the nights not for a lack of getting opportunities Yeah, they're getting shots the comments have been getting shots

there we go Marcus with the amount 21 seconds on the shot clock here for the comments out to Andrews Gonzalez on him driving to the basket stop to the free throw line looking for something the countdown is on but he's able to get rid of it. That's underneath to wade good defense by Alex Crawford. is still has it two seconds one second and they're just gonna get a shot clock violation

now one goes to Alex Crawford for playing good download defense and then trying to get the rebound and scrapping on that one

drop in the clock there from the

I think there was some question about the about any reset of the clock

Oh, they were looking for a reset of the clock but it never actually hit the rim. There's Crawford gets the slide and he is going to be called for the travel

inbound here from Andrews to

Zolo press here

and the nicer they're doing what they do and just going right underneath the basket and looks a call follow on love looks to be his could that be his second file? I

think that was I think that file was on Gonzalez. I see yeah that was on Gonzalez there. got his hand caught in the cookie jar underneath.

There's a word with the ball. gets everyone to jump goes up with it and gets fouled. It's able to get the shot there and go in for the three point play.

Three is dangerous kind of almost anywhere on the floor is a good move

shot no good night's get lucky there for the free throw. still hold the four point lead find Stratton open who draws a foul Dexter Stratton

Nice pass interior pass by love their 73%

free throw shooter going to the line. Pretty sure handed here.

free for three

follows have started to be called now starting to slow the game down a touch since that time out. You're strapping on a second free throw thinks it might be a six point lead again for the Knights

here's their trapping defense here trapping press

Andrews with the ball over to Marcus over to Andrews he's going to take the open jumper and he sinks it finds a soft point right there the defense and takes a shot it's love driving in loses the ball and they're gonna say it's off the comments want to say that might have bounced off math is at the end there

that would be some sharp eyes that you had Joe I'd see that

there's green off the inbound open three from the corner no good and they're gonna call over the back looks like on Stratton

stretch Stratton protests but

over sorry to say I don't think you can have your own pit over the offender's shoulder that is not how it works. If you are taller Yes. It was March the ball kicks to a wide open Mathis who takes the corner three and he sinks it and that makes the game a one point game. is green with the ball. Knights got to get some points as the comments are looking for something looking to take this lead. Bradley with the ball driving underneath the basket. Scoops no good and comets get the rebound Cuba was unable to corral it. There's math is open from three he takes another one and it looks like Stratton might have gotten away with a follow there. There's green going the other way. Going up for the dunk. You're fighting over your own ball. Oh my goodness. And it ends up that comments. That is a scenario that coach Charlotte's cannot be happy with. It was a last rebound between two nights. He

looked not last rebound between two nights, three or almost four nights down in paint vying for it and still out.

One point game 736 left here.

Our staff Alomar is really playing very tight defense.

Here's Mathis out to Andrews

quantum comm sets the screen on Crawford. Andrews drives deep into the zone but gets swallowed up pitches it back out to word who's making a move tipped away by KJ Bradley. I know it looks like it was just thrown away by my spidey word.

Kind of look like like Bradley had something to do with that. But absolutely.

As Bradley two more in the corner. Back over to green. Crawford with the ball looking for Cubitt dries into paint kicks out to more finds Bradley with the deep three off the back iron no good keep it gets the rebound. Drives underneath the basket and is able to put it in nice

reverse by the big man. Short a little hook to do there like that. After recovering the rebound,

Marcus with the ball covered by more step back three off the back iron no good cubit with the rebound Bradley's taken up there as green look, thought about a three double pump fake no good. Crawford's unreal to get it but green gets his rebound. Left Handed rims out and the rebounds gonna go to Walton

a little bit of slippery on that nice hustle there but more

couple frustrating sequences for the nights underneath the basket where it seems impossible that they can't get the ball through.

Palomar is just is not letting any of those go easy so they're getting hands in but there's really is not an excuse and knights were writing the

word loses it.

That's another thing I'm seeing here too is Palomar is really hustling after the balls that are loose.

Seven seconds on the shot clock word throws it away to Stratton who's gonna push it up core. It's him and Bradley and he finds Bradley for the layup wonderful play free

play by Stratton yes taking it all the way down quickly and then being able to give it up nice dish.

Spray the word with the ball covered by Bradley small trap there from the Knights finds wall and non Crawford making a move to the basket and he's able to spin and twirl and whirl and find his space. Two points for Walton.

You got Crawford up and there's more

to Stratton and he does get followed the Knights found a little soft spot their comments weren't quite back on defense yet.

Stratton shooting to six the first one. Perfect

from line five for five Stratton

Stratton has been great from the line today taking advantage of his opportunities

love here and a little noise here in

white area with quite a bit of talk going on behind us between nights. supporters as well as comments supporters. As we said before, there is some intensity between these two teams today. The way they've been playing the way the audience sounds behind us and last year we said 1111

Yep, so this is definitely a grudge like a grudge match. And the you got some good good stuff going on here. The partisan the partisans have arrived

maybe some security involved if this keeps going this way but

quick rundown on scoring for the for Palomar comments. Christian wall with eight spy the word six Jaden Mathis and Jason is a daigou for with three Kevin Love Dexter Stratton now it's Crawford always six always six our green with five kg Bradley for Dylan cubed to

go comment comments with the ball is a date is a Daegu taking it up covered by Gonzalez and word takes the open three is unable to make it and words getting some words from a knight supporter here and he's given him back this Gonzalez with the ball to Crawford driving into the basket find strength and but it's off his hands he's going back the other way he's a Daegu pitches it back out to Marcus screen from wall and Marcus goes in with a slam and that wasn't right. Wow.

He took off from about the free throw line on that one.

He pulled that all the way back and that's got the crowd going wild now. There's Crawford over to Stratton over to Gonzalez drives to the basket

we're gonna call before I believe the war had the foul.

still only going to be on the floor

both teams still under the foul limit. So we're digging it out

it's Gonzalez with the inbound three point lead for the Knights. He finds Kevin more but he loses it going back the other way Marcus going for the euro step but draws the fall from love. These gonna shoot to here. Walton went down on her camera what's going on here

Marcus is going to shoot to

Christian Walton there. Went to the floor like he was trying to get something from get a little extracurriculars with KJ Bradley there. There is just a slip on the floor. It's like he was trying to draw something

wraps cool cleaning the floor now we go through it his job. Rest taken up a little bit of extra extra duty Yesterday

the Knights with eight turnovers in this first half to seven for Palomar

I'm not sure we've ever seen the Knights not lead and takeaways Yeah

exactly.

fall behind and turnovers here we go with Mark is shooting to

see if the comments can pull the score within one

Marcus rattles in the first one

80% free throw shooter

mores coming out. Greens coming in

Marcus shooting the second one taking some time here

love fixing a shoe issue

the second one to be a one point game now we have a battle here and Harry West Jim with 351 left in the first half 2928 Bradley with it screen from Crawford green with it down to Crawford working on Walton goes up with it and gets it

so a lot of those balls that have been crawling around the rim and going in

while it gets lost in the shuffle and is wide open underneath the basket

somebody somebody's got to cover when when Crawford with the ball to Heather Crawford damn deep someone's got to cover that path

the Knights of the small light have been consolidated the mid range jumper and he sinks it but small lineup from the Knights right now Crawford the only big man everyone else is

a guard doll resolves with his first point says James

Marcus out to word with a deep three and that's an air ball and the talk is getting loud now there with word having a little interactions here with a night supporters here's Gonzalez bringing the ball up finds Bradley for three but he does not take it when he's around the defense finds an open jumper and he sinks it and that puts the night's lead back up five to 36 left in the half

and mid range something that's been good to the night so far. Love to see a little shot chart is a

Daegu brought it up now Marcus has it tempted trap there from the Knights Walton underneath he's unable to get he's looking for a fall can't get the shot off and Bradley takes the open transition three and sinks it and that's going to be a

this is this a technical

no Katie Bradley was just really taunting over there

is an issue here and some tensity from the fans behind us you might be in might be in the argument territory here

yeah

yeah we're oh we might have to break up a fight

oh well first we'll have to report on the fight

Yeah, well yeah well you know it's too bad we don't have the our camera on she could see some action going on behind us it did we did we figure out what what the interaction there between the ref and the and the comments coach was there looks like it's gonna be comments ball I do. Talk Time Out

benches talking to breath to Bradley over there to getting chippy inside Daegu it's time to focus

swatted away by Gonzales and a follows Crawford after the ball is stolen away. It's gonna be nice ball.

That'll send profit to the line that's there seven.

Profit has a decent free throw average. 67% I would categorize that as decent. Yes. High 60s low 70s. Pretty good

as the daigou. That's his second. Also overbore has to for let's take a look at five also for Palomar TV love the old one no

good and love looks like he's unable to gather it and it's gonna stay with the Knights

boy we have ourselves again Yeah we do. The Knights are getting have starting to establish a bit of a comfortable lead but I think we've seen them up by eight and it's it's disappeared quite quickly here with the Palomar seems to be some frustration from the comments comments on the state of the court

so is that Walton over there with being attended to by the trainer? Maybe there was some blood on the court.

There's Crawford making his play without Walton on the court. That's gonna be a 10 point lead for the Knights

now the press is back on track

they call it a more I believe on more

No, I'm out I called timeout

timeout on Palomar and they look like they are acting as if they did not call a timeout although we are not too too certain it's just our job to interpret what we're seeing it looks like Walton got struck in the face at some point he is carrying he has an ice pack on his face

there's Marcus drawing the fall

he's gonna shoot to the game got quite wild after Marcus's incredible Dunk from what I mean it felt like the free throw line I'm not sure if it

probably wasn't sure did felt like go back to the replay.

And he pulled he called he also really exaggerated it he pulled the ball all the way back and really slammed it oh they're changing it it was not a shooting fall there was a fall on the floor and it's going to be switched so now it's just an imbalance for the comments word with the ball more went for the steel and word goes off with it and Charles a follow on cubed

Wow He handled that contact well drew it knew what he was going to do. He really has no fear going in the in the paint

giving up quite a bit of size to qubit eight inches there.

Yeah, I think I think Crawford was in the lane too.

And he gets a three point play.

As Bradley with the ball drill press here from the comments

dream Picks up his dribble finds Gonzales three seconds on the shot clock gets over the half court line that was close stop was green screen from Cuba it takes the three nails it and gets those three points back right back to a 10 point lead. Here's Marcus coming back the other way green on him

nights playing a man demand zone Manama defense again screen

for Mathis now goes to him underneath the basket from

the bar and he gets called for the charge

Gonzalez picked that charge up good position there

and KJ launched wants to mop the court everybody's

doing their part pretty soon Joe they're coming over here and asking us can

you fellows come out here and mop it up for us clean the court

only one of the only one of you guys needs to talk at the time

it's Gonzales with it trap again are a full court press again here the fines cubit with the Leu delay in water passing Crawford

great adjustment by cubed in the air to get that layup I think he was trying to get a dunk but there's a word with

a block and they're gonna call the fall. And I don't think the Knights liked I'd very much

like you got the ball and then the arm on the on the follow. That's what the ref was explaining to Charlaine that he needed him on the forum

for shot from word syncs it 72% From free throw second shot. nails that one as well. Back to 10 points for the Knights. 4535 31 seconds left

about a five second differential between the clocks here. Looks like

the Knights are going to just play a regular offensive possession. There's Gonzalez with the three no good rebound from Marcus who's going to take it back the other way. 17 seconds left on the clock. And Marcus goes right up with it no good. Crawford with the Ball Bombs down to Gonzalez is gonna go up with it over tonight. Over to green with a layup. What past three seconds on the game on the game clock. He heaves it and that's gonna fall short. And the nights after what half of intensity and incredible playmaking from both teams is a 12 point lead.

Yeah, Palomar did not, did not stop there. Once they got down early, seven, seven, nothing to start. But they came back, got close, kept it close, kept it close. And then in the last four minutes of the game five minutes of the half. The nights really just started clicking ball getting down little bit low, getting some of those to fall. And, and we've got a 12 point knights lead going in. Joe, if you don't mind, I'll give a few stats here. Little

rats here some stats, okay, here we go. Take a break during half. There you go. So

the team's looking at Palomar. Their 35 points. They're shooting 14 of 31 from the field 45% which is right about a little bit over there, their average. So, but two for 12. from three point range 16%. They're usually a 33% shooting team. So that's a big difference for them. Five, six from the line. nine turnovers 10 points off of turnovers. So they're they're converting some of those turnovers of the Knights and then rebounding, their 12 rebounds. And five assists, one block five steals eight fouls. fouls are all even taking a look at the Knights. They're 47 points on 18 of 34 from the field 52%. So shooting a little bit better than their average five of 11. From from three. So they're playing a really good kind of efficient ball here. And six or seven from the line. Big difference here in the first half Joe 22 rebounds for City College versus 12 rebounds for Palomar. So that's happening. And then let's take a look at some of the individual players for Palomar the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference leaders FFIV word is got 11 points. And then Christian Walton 10 He's got two rebounds Marcus Thomas Marcus, four rebounds six points maphis Three is a daigou three also Brandon edge address two for the Knights. Our green and Alex Crawford voles sharing the top scoring with 10 Each Crawford pulling down three rebounds Kevie love also with three rebounds KJ Bradley leading scorer for the Knights at nine points really balanced KV love six Dexter Stratton six some really good minutes from Dexter Stratton as he started that half and then shot six for six from the line. So getting it done when you have to Dylan cubit to I mean, four points. And Kenny Gonzalez to add is a kind of a question as to why cube it's not. Not starting today. But he is contributing where he can.

The big I want to say the big thing you mentioned it earlier as the is the rebounds 22 to 12. And then also as it was earlier on the three point shooting five for 11 from the knights and two for 12 from the comments.

Yeah, both teams, you know pretty even points in the paint Palomar 22 Whoo knights 18. Palomar really was driving to down and doing their thing. Tried to get it in deep.

It's, it's been quite a game. The nights, I still have the advantage in there. Taking a 12 point lead here in the first half and we're quite excited for the second half. But before that we are going to take a break. Unless there are any games going around on around the league tonight.

Well, there are some games going on around the league. We don't have any scores. We were looking to see if any of the teams were updating their stats as they go, but they aren't bothered taking a quick look around the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference. Tonight, well, let me see what we got here. Joe, I should have had that pulled up but I thought I did. Yeah, I do. Here we go. Imperial Valley is planning to Cooper Cuyamaca another 5pm start here in the PCAC San Diego Miramar at Mira Costa at 6pm. And Southwestern is at San Diego Mesa tonight. 7pm some other news in the Knights world KJ Bradley Pacific Coast Athletic Conference athlete of the week last week. And then the new poll came out this last week and the Knights are still number three in the state of California.

Judo net still doing it and trying to stay undefeated in the PCAC after a close one on Wednesday. And then we have this one which is a 12 point game right now. All right. Yeah, we're gonna take a little break here if you want to know anything more about the SD city knights or anything going on to San Diego City College check out SD city times.com We'll be back with the second half in just a bit

All right, here we are for the second half. We have Andrews inbounding it looks like and let's get it going to Marcus and we've had quite a wild first half and this second half time I'm excited I can't wait to see what happens looks like Walton is back in after injury earlier on. Was Marcus with the ball or to Andrews open three from the corner and he sinks it nine point game

nice patient offense there by the comments to start the half an open look

Bradley over to Stratton Bradley with word on him he takes the three over him no good off the iron misses it and it's a rebound what from Andrews Andrews is gonna take it up here for hitting that three on the last possession and there is a follow on

somewhere someone and Stratton got the foul

Well, they're both number five. But yes it is it Stratton because that ball is staying here.

Looks like they called foul on both of them though. Wow. Oh wow. Two fouls,

so it just stays here because Walton looks concerned here we go. Marcus with the ball over to Word screen from Walton dishes at oft Mathis down underneath the wall and find some space underneath the basket. It's able to sneak past strat and and bring this game down to seven.

Stratton just got fooled.

Bradley screen from Crawford driving out on word turnaround jumper and nails it

sweet turnaround. Hello KJ Bradley still is joining with people on the other who are on the other bench.

There's Marcus with a ball takes the jumper over strat and no good rebound love are fighting for the rebound. They're going to call Jump ball and that is going to go the Knights way.

Walton in the midst of knights at least got his hands on that.

Crawford with the ball taking it up pulling Walton away from the center but he drives right at him. And he puts it in. Crawford's been doing kind of been doing what he wants when he has the ball isolated with Walt The screen from wall and finds them on the roll off of Bradley's face but he's able to pick it up in strat and gets it now it's over to love driving into the basket. Out to Bradley wide open three no good off the left iron Mathis with the ball. Finds Marcus.

Man to man defense here by the Knights over the word picking them up way high

trap here on word he's able to work through everything and finds himself underneath the basket.

It's hard to imagine how he got past Crawford on that sideline over there. comfort needs to stick his foot out of the outside their

nine point game Bradley with the ball.

Crawford again isolating Crawford finds

love in the middle with the fade away mid range and he nails it. The mid range jump shot for the nights has been very wonderful today

pass it off. Takes the three no good off the backboard. I was massive for the three Mathis with three love down to Crawford with the slam to hand dunk.

Alright, it's a little hesitation by Crawford to get that slam without getting blocked.

And with Crawford dunking it looked like the Comets are trying to catch the Knights napping again but the Fast Hands of I want to say our green green we've come become accustomed to

word with the inbound looking for market are looking for Marcus but finds Andrews rather take that three swatted away but they're going to call the foul on him

loves body just got in the way there boy he really did get the block but then the follow through of with his motion.

It's a tremendous defensive attempt there fell

on fouled Andris Andrews going to the line

61% from free throw. And he misses the first 113 point lead here for the nights but the comments are not going to go away they play with some intensity. We haven't seen intensity we haven't seen many teams come in here and play with this intensity against the Knights.

We're used to seeing the Knights. You know a really tough on defense and playing hard. But Palomar is doing a good job that way too.

And what that second free throw made there from Andrews that is going to make it a 12 point game. And just hit that was at a three point or to start the half. And then there were a couple more points there. Six points now. points in the second half here. First, three and a half minutes.

Couple other feature games tonight in California state which the Knights are still at number three after this latest poll number 10 San Francisco versus number 22. All loan a No.

Or all loan alone and VO H L O N E

num number 26 la Southwest is that number five Mount San Antonio also in knights athletics. We got a second here. We've got women's basketball tonight. Well, women's basketball up coming up on the 24th with Southwest at City College men's basketball we're here next Wednesday with San Diego at Mira Costa then beach volleyball also is in action on the 26th versus Cerritos and then baseball nights baseball so happening kompetenz coming to San Diego City College on the 26th that's out on the Knights athletic sites at St city knights.com. So check that out.

That must be just just getting started there with the baseball season imagined So alright, Gonzalez is in Canberra off in as well and Kevin Moore. The only starters remaining are going to be Dexter Stratton and Alex Crawford for the Knights. Gonzalez finding some space goes up with it and is able to draw the fall.

That was the that was the Gonzales move there.

This whole possession he was

him setting it up taking it to the whole

what to play shooting to 66.7% from the free throw line for the Chula Vista player. Kenny Gonzales misses the first one modern day Catholic

his first free throw of the night we'll see what he gets on a second one here

played there one of two modern day Chula Vista players with Dexter Stratton as well

5643 extends a lead the 13th after the second make the second shot was made the first one was missed rather Marcus with the ball to map this cross court to word is able to get it almost all the way and he goes up with what a layup attempt but no good Kenny with the rebound I'm gonna bring up there's Kevin Moore goes right into him and draws the charge that was Marcus who was able to get the charge on that going back comments way

love taking it strong to the hall but you could kind of see what was gonna happen

was a bit telegraphed there

yeah he was moving quick and his player was set oh that will get

museum inbound from Andrews gonna inbound it to Marcus here never

like JUCO ball where the refs are talking to the crowd the crowd here

it's all very it's very I cannot think of the world a family or in which I was going to something like personal or private not to cozy cozy atmosphere we are all together here Harry was three pointer from Andrews and he sinks the second one of the second half first five minutes with the comments been all Andrews Stratton with the ball and he's going to be isolating Walton here is going to drive in on him goes up with the play good spin and twirl but on able to get it Walton looks like he stepped out so it's gonna stay knights ball.

So that's interesting. That's that kind of where they pull all five players out and isolate the big at the top. Have a lot of faith in his bigs goes Charlotte's does Stratton and they run that same thing for Crawford granted earlier in the game.

Exhaust with the inbound to love love covered by word Picks up his dribble looking for camper off who has it now. It's back out to Gonzalez. screen with a ball looks like they're gonna call that a follow on Walton there.

Yep. Fallon Walton he was he was asking for that double foul again.

Going to be three on him now.

Three team fouls apiece.

While getting into foul trouble here with 14 minutes left. There is love over to camber off. Green 15 on the shot clock a wide open Gonzalez from free no good cubit gets the rebound over to camber off there's green to love they're gonna reset here 20 seconds. Gonzales to love looking for Canberra can't find over to Gonzalez who drives underneath the basket in the ball gets tipped and it's going to stay here with the Knights 10 seconds on the shot clock

that defensive move where the where the defender lets his man go by and then sweeps around something seeing the lot these days. It's tricky.

There's green open at three takes it nails it What a shot. After all of that it ends with a three pointer and that's a big play for the nights mark is driving in on love takes the fade away mid range and he nails it both

teams haven't blows each one bom bom

there's camber off with a three no good word bringing it up Marcus fall stolen away by Al Green There he finds cubed all by himself going for the block. And my goodness Marcus goes in for the block What hustle looks like the Knights wanted something. There's Andrews with the ball and ends up with comets layup a wild turnaround cubit go into the basket a little slow might have been better to just kind of golf with the layup instead of first the block there on the dunk. Yeah,

well yeah, he brought the ball back to look like he brought the ball back a bit on that dunk and gave

oh my goodness, he goes for the dunk and gets blocked by the rim and loses the ball. A really tough couple of exchanges there for Dylan cubed and that would be a six point swing on that. Even more the comments the comment score here nine point game. Marcus is bringing the ball up here. Screen from Walden back over to Word Bradley playing close and camber of it you know what it's not a San Diego knights game without a camber off chart yes

He knows how to do that that's his one of his specialties and

cubed is going to come out and Gonzales is going to come out

yes that's the second foul on Word

and on the Crawford one on one here with Walton and the softest right hand on the left side into the basket time out or no that's a technical technical foul on the coach for the comments and that is not what they need and right now

momentum seem to be shifting a bit toward Palomar but quick bucket by Crawford there and then love at the line.

Love is a 89% free throw shooter and just a great shooter all around 44 from three

number to three point shooter in the Pacific Coast athletic conferences love

and it looks like he's getting to here gets it and that ball is gonna stay with the ball it's gonna stay with the comments to free throws in the stays of the comments

like a bench technical and the ball stays with the comments that's interesting.

As well new the ball back to Marcus on a quick play open in the corner pump fake for math this takes the dribble takes the three no good how to say a bit of a surprising no over the back call there is a Daegu here's word with it. 13 point lead for the Knights looking for the trap on word finds Walton back to Word finds Walton underneath and he's able to put it in there

sweet looked by spy V word.

Where he moves through the defense is very incredible. And there goes Crawford no good on the easy lane. And now the comments go on the other way. As Mathis with the ball on Crawford eventually gets to word 14 on the shot clock. setting something up takes the deep three off the backboard doesn't hit the rim Crawford with the rebound over to green knights looking to push but they're going to slow it down now or it goes green to the basket pulls it back and call us back again. Oh, double cover get ends up with it after a wild back and forth their hustle thereby algorri 24 seconds left after hitting the rim fresh shot clock night setting up a new play. This time with KJ finding green underneath and he's wide open after coming out from under the basket. And that's gonna be a timeout on the comments. Good luck

by Al Green to kind of come in and sneak in under there low and then Bradley with the nice intro pass and a short little floater back to 13

kind of had what was that Crawford was underneath there kind of taking up the space so nope space green showed up. Uncovered easy basket used it well. The playmakers on the comments I think are the most tense Serving they for the nights they are they are getting stuff done. And when you just you it's surprising you wouldn't think that they would actually be able to the things that we've seen from Marcus and word in particular, they're finding their teammates, they're dribbling around in the in the paint where it looks like they got a death wish down there to lose the ball and get a turnover but they're able to sneak through and get the get the baskets

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see if Palomar runs some offensive sets to try to get Marcus back open. You know on that three, he's hit a couple of threes here in the second half. And he's he's got the hand but wolves got 14 Spidey word 13 Andrews 11 Mark is eight and a top four scores therefore, the comments

and words feel worlds field goal. Average or percentages is a very big positive for the night stage is that half he was four for 11. And right now he is five for 14. So it's been a it's been a difficult night for him when it comes to shooting the basketball but he's still been making some really incredible plays.

And we we had the we had another of the comment coaches out on the floor talking to the ref again during that timeout.

And then the Knights probably going to keep sticking with Alex Crawford on Walton and isolating that from the point for a quarterback trap where it's able to get across the line covered by camber off goes up with it and he gets it off the front iron

he is starting to just kind of heat up and take it on his own to do something here is Bradley

covered by izhar daigou He's able to draw a foul

little too much body there is a day we're gonna be six

on the comments. Not quite in the double or not quite in the bonus yet. Bradley with the inbound 1042 left in this game there's Crawford finds love screen from Crawford covered by word trying to get in there he takes the shot he's unable to get the ball over the rim though as Mark is back the other way driving under the basket goes up with it

I didn't know if we're gonna see another one of those Tomahawk

I looked like Canberra was trying to get the charge there but they're gonna call it a block instead of be shooting to for Marcus 80% from free throw. Not someone you want to send to the line

no although you also don't want him to do one of those authoritative dunks again to get a little mo

game felt in the comments hand after that dunk for maybe a few minutes after that. Second shot back iron no good. Rebound camber off. Crawford gonna bring it up here. Now it's to Bradley screen Crawford. Underneath as a you dunk from Alex Crawford. Oh my goodness. The crowd

goes wild here at Harry West that are at least the front row.

That was the momentum play that we needed to see for these nights putting the lead back up to 12 Three point or from Marcus trying to silence it no good. Bradley the other way now under 10 minutes in the game along with the ball

Bradley to camber off and three over the love screen. The basket there's Alex Crawford in the corner for three no good

little long and bounced out

there's crop Marcus rather with the ball now. Andrews driving into the basket trying to get it over Crawford no good. Canberra off tips it green going the other way. He's got love he's got Canberra if he decides to take it himself off the front iron no good. Canberra off gets the rebound and draws the fall on the put back

out how green taking the shot. Not afraid to do that. We've seen him taken make it before the nice follow by Canberra on that 160 8%

from the line I

camber off with his fifth rebound of the game he intubate both five rebounds each

back iron on the first one my goodness, if we could have replays of replays of all replays Alex Crawford his head, I believe was above the rim on that he was flying

when he had enough time in the air to to kind of bring the ball back also. And it makes that an emphatic

Canberra hits the second one extends a lead to 13 and he's going to come off the court. Stratton's coming in green came off during that free throw and it looks like he was really by Gonzalez.

Trap press.

Let them cross now. Andrews with the ball. Stratton on Andrews driving to the basket looking for something switches to Crawford. Walton going up with it and draws the fall on Stratton.

That's gonna be the third on Stratton.

52 from the free throw. Not a bad fall but as you said three you got to weigh it first one no good. Vince What did you shoot in high school? Do you remember your free throw percentage? No.

That was so long ago.

Oh come on. I

don't have my stats posted up on my wall so now

the second one is also no good Crawford with the rebound. Bradley with a ball underneath the Crawford fine Stratton he goes up with it and gets followed by Walton and that's going to be for for him that's gonna start putting some pressure on them. Especially down under of Walton is not in the size for the comments is not gonna be able to match up with the Knights for the rest of the game. No

both Walton with for now and then is a Daegu has three

say Mathis would be their second largest player and he comes in for Walton, as I say that sixth floor. So the height could be an issue and Stratton continues to the solid from the

light for eight from the line today for Derrick Stratton doesn't matter. Dexter strikes are

under between that past there right between Crawford's legs Andrews goes all the way down the court gets the lay up. Wow. Got a good second half from him. He gets up to 11 points now. There's Bradley go and find Stratton who is able to get it over the defender and Ring around the rosie it into the basket.

Now we've got 15 Point leads so the Knights have been really very consistent this half kind of keeping keeping the comments at bay. Ball

poked out last by Bob Barr night's ball

one rep call the one way another care rep call it the other way.

It's always with the ball. 15 point lead for the Knights screen from Crawford doesn't take it as Bradley with the three and it's good and that's going to extend the lead to 18 and you got to be happy if you're a nightstand now right there.

Looks like Coach Charlton's called that one. Exactly. sure why but just to regroup. Give his boys a little bit of a breather here. They look excited over there. And the Knights

going on a little timeout chant celebration.

TJ Bradley getting that three pushing his total up to 14. Green with 15 ounce Crawford 18. Boy, five already in double figures, five nights and double figures already.

We got a wonderful evening here watching this game. I gotta say it has been one of the more fun one of the most fun exciting games we've seen. From the night the play making from both teams has just been absolutely wonderfully entertaining.

A lot of the games we've seen here Joe, the Knights defense has really just kind of set the tempo and You know, pushed the other teams back on their heels. Palomar doesn't seem to be that kind of a team. They seem to be pushing it. They're, you know, meeting all the defense, you know, maybe, maybe a few turnovers, but that's still you know, they're only have three more turnovers than the Knights do. So they're, they're really doing it but knights are taking advantage of things. Those turnovers by the Palomar two

they're finding their openings for sure. There's Bradley trying to go for the steel word recovers takes the jumper in and out off the right iron rather and Stratton with the rebound Gonzalez going back the other way we're coming up to trap they're gonna call over and back on that great defense for

a lot a lot of contact a lot of contact there but reps are letting it play.

Andrews at the inbound here

throw it deep into the back court Marcus with the ball covered by green screen from Walton to decide to double them looking for wealth underneath and it looks like we're gonna draw follow charlatans does not look happy about that.

Nice interior pass by Marcus getting the ball to Walton.

Walton is at the line shooting to Walton wish or is that going to be the one in one there

I think it's a no

I don't think he was shooting there

though. He wasn't shooting and it's not a one on one yet. Only six files on the nights

and here is Marcus with the inbound finds Walton. Out to word on green or green on word love looks like a travel and they call it they call it how it looks is that a technical technical foul on word? No on love on love some pointing towards word so I thought it was him but it was not where it's going to take the free throws a little surprise where it's going to take the free throws rather than Marcus. Marcus has a better percentage

maybe trying to get word his

he is he misses the second one.

He is the number one scorer and PCAC

must have and something love said I didn't see him do anything

well he was wondering what he said also but if I got a technical I do the same thing

what I say yeah what I say what I say 17 point here the 17 point lead here for the Knights love with the ball driving into the basket

will be shooting to one of them one on that

yeah they're gonna not that Phil was just before the shot I think it's the right call but the bench the bench wants to three point play. Either way love it the line is always a good idea 89%

Joe I just wanted a new officiel fit officiating sign because the hook em horns is one in one I say and then they do this when you're shooting too. So he did that. And that's the shooting one and one.

Yeah. Did he only shoot one I'm just confused now.

I thought he just shot one where we thought watching Joe a

month a must have been a three point play. Then there's the three from Mathis and he gets the three points back. 14 point lead for the nights. I'm confused on what all just happened.

To the replay screen

from Crawford. There's Bradley with the mid range. off the front iron the soft

touch soft touch KJ Bradley extensively

back to 16. Six minutes left in this game there's Marcus with the deep fadeaway three no good rebound from Crawford Stratton now has it. Now Bradley is going to bring it up

run below six minutes 16 points. Bradley's making some moves. The ball gets tipped out and it's off of Bradley himself. Andrews is going to have the ball Now with the inbound and was Andrews with the tip the poke out Does that count as a steal? No no

knights setting up in a zone here.

Andrews at the ball, driving it on love. Kicks it out to math is open from three is unable to get it this time love with rebound numbers dot the numbers on word there goes green up and under and he draws the fall send out green to the line now 77.8%

Good move to the bucket my green would have been a nice and one there can't have everything

shot as good. does get those

77% from the line

and the second one is good as well. Extends the lead to 18 Marcus with the ball hands it off to Andrews who takes the mid range jumper and banks it in it continues to be his half and

sweat 630 in the bank still open

Bradley's got it covered by Andrews over Dexter Stratton. Green love he's gonna take it and he sinks it

they cannot you can't let love just have an open look. Gotta have a hand right up in his face.

It's going to be three for three for him and that is just a last ball on Marcus. Now the game seems to have really spiraled out of control for the comments and knights are starting to get comfortable with a 19 point lead there's love driving the basket that draws a charge

that's loves third foul. Maybe it's fourth film

take him out as his fourth fall in

Palomar in bounds it tipped away by Gonzalez and that knights won it out on the comets and they get it and must have been deflected off of the

ref the ref had a great look right there

Oh Bradley looking for Crawford all loan on wall and is unable to get it Stratton's unable to get the rebound. And now word is going back the other way. Gonzalez looking for that charge and it ends up being a foul

sure look like they had I think Gonzalez thought that he had the jump ball Yeah, it looked like he had them tied up. He

he was going to take the charge then he switched from the charge to just play the defense because word saw common and it ended up in kind of this funny in between follow for shots no good

gravy word having a tough day from the field. Not a great day at the line either rope.

Stratton's look for the inbound finds Crawford who's going to bring it up KJ with the ball. Screen from Crawford. We're gonna call a push on Crawford. They're kind of the lean into that screen. Screen move move just a little bit. There's already a little tension between him and Marcus on little hand checking back and forth before that screen happened. Marcus with a ball covered by green and the basket is in its ball 16 point lead. Bradley bringing it up he is covered by opendoor Oh Before they're gonna run a slower offense here, they're Stratton at the point. Now looking for Crawford kicks it over to green. Who's got marks on his screen for stran pulls it away. Green with the mid range jumper with five seconds on the shot clock no good rebound from Gonzales's it's a fresh set. Fresh 30 seconds here for the Knights and they're gonna keep running this clock down with this 18 point lead that they have. As Bradley screened from Crawford. He's going to take the three no good off the backboard and off the rim. Mark is pushing it back the other way. He finds Mathis back to Marcus underneath the wall and poked away by Crawford who's able to pick it up and now the Knights have the ball going back the other way. Great defense from Alex Crawford who was just calling for the ball well Walton was still getting back but decided against it Bradley with the ball now covered by Marcus 70 on the shot clock. Stratton takes the open jumper there's no good on able to make it tipped away by Gonzalez and green with a steel and a jam. What dunk and that's a punctuation on this game as they go up 20 points with 223 and counting left we're trying to make some fancy moves finds a wall and underneath who's unable to get the three point play but does draw the foul Well, he's gonna shoot two he is oh for two from the line as a 52% free throw percentage. And that Dunk from Al Green I want to say that's that might have been the punctuation on this game here.

Yeah, he he made his move. No person on him rose up as they say

he was going to finish this one himself right there that's 20 points. That let it put it to a 20 point lead and are now 18 With 216 left this game is all over Walton shooting two

nights just seemed to kind of keep coming at him yeah, there's just really kind of no stopping

there also it doesn't look like the comments don't play a very deep bench it looks like we've only seen I want to say eight players played today. And the Knights as we know have I think two full very solid lineups on their on their squad we have not seen two players on the active roster tonight. That's Callaway and Strecker poked away by word scooped up by Marcus going back the other way it looks for the Allied group at home My goodness

six one spy V up

spy V word soaring through the sky green going back the other way 16 point game here he goes down low and gets the three point opportunity. Greene wasn't having it. He said No my dunk was the dunk. We're

gonna remember that one. Although you could see by the word call for the ball on that one. And really nice pass

and green with the free throw. This has been a highlight reel of the games It

sure has. Now green and what a second half by algorri 22 points now

ends up being a leading scorer now for the fines wall and underneath Al Green on him and he just he just backs up on the much larger 682 140 pounder.

Let the clock keep running

the screen bringing the ball up and the Knights are going to slow it down as they have been here but the comments are trying to push them into doing something and green might take the invitation there's word driving down quickly to the basket he just loses it there Gonzales and love the other way and he's gonna dunk it screen on Marcus, he goes up with it and draws the fall on Alex Crawford. That looks like a good block.

That's what I was saying to Crawford really look like he got all ball on that. The

refs got caught up in the intensity. All the slam jams are getting. You got to slow this game down a little bit. Here's Marcus for shot no good wow nice bench is getting wild for Kevi love on that dunk

Marcus 80% free throw shooter missing that first one second one

it's good eight teen point game with less than a minute remaining love with the ball covered by Marcus screen coming from Crawford he takes it the other way back out to Bradley he takes the very deep three off the front iron no good looks like he's just trying to get on the phone there. There's a Walton on Crawford going up with it. No good rebound from love. The Shot clock is off. They're gonna drive it up.

I don't think so ne'er think so.

They're gonna they're gonna end

anybody would have been happy with him doing that

is a Daegu to play a little bit of defense, but the Knights just let the clock run out with an 18 point victory 89 to 71 over Palomar getting a little revenge for that loss last season. And what a game it was a highlight reel of a game I'll say yeah, lots of lots

of action for both teams. Even though you know we had an 18 point game there at the end. Both teams really still playing, you know full heart all the way through, you know, including Palomar not giving up. You know, there's a lot a lot of chip Enos but you know, that's what JUCO ball seems to be about. So they were all playing well and doing their thing. Our green for the Knights. With 22 points outs Crawford 18 kJ Bradley 16 Kevin Love 15 Dexter Stratton 10 Five in double figures. Top rebounder tonight for the Knights was Alex Crawford was six Kevin Love with six. Stratton and qubit both added five have to say I'm really interested with qubit and you're not a ton of playing time. I didn't see him on the court. You know that much. So that will be something I'm kind of interested in. But they take a little wrap up with the comments. 21 points for spy V word the PCAC scoring leader Christian Walden was 16 Brandon Andrews 15 Thomas Marcus with 10. So they had some balanced scoring there. Also, Thomas Marcus, the rebound leader for the comments with seven turnovers. And Palomar 19, which San Diego turned into 23 points. rebounding, the Knights 41 rebounds over 25 for Palomar. And that's kind of the story of the game a lot of good ces 19 for city versus 11 For Palomar and pretty much even in a lot of the other categories but very hard fought game on both both sides. But good to see the Knights play that second half strong and and do that. And

I'll say the tail of the tape for the night ad as you mentioned the rebounds but offensive rebounds 14 to five that's a it's a big disparity and the rebounds are dominated and then free throw line at three point line 36 to 23% on the for three point line and 83 to 50 on the free throw line for made free throws and three more made threes for the Knights so ended up with an 18 point game but it was quite a game. We had action on the court with action off the court action often. Well, a lot of a lot of trash talk behind us between the fans and even some interactions between the players and the fans. And the fans and the rafts and the fans and the refs and the and the players. You know I want to say it was It wasn't love that was talking to the to the bench quite a bit. But Bradley Bradley Bradley

Bradley was doing his thing and given given the comments bench a little bit of love. Third pretty much the whole game. Coming up for the next opponents for city. We've got Mira Costa. Next does Wednesday the 24th at 6pm at Mira Costa And then we'll be playing Palomar again on Wednesday. The first of February will be up at Palomar. And then Palomar is next game is Wednesday, the 24th versus Imperial Valley at Palomar.

And then we're not back here at Harry West gym for quite some time, I want to say February 7, we've

got a little bit of a break here, Joe, but who they're

playing. But tonight, the Knights improve the record of 16 and three, well, Palomar drops to seven and 12. Now now two and five in the conference, and the Knights have improved to seven and no still undefeated in the conference. And I'm assuming will remain hopefully, number three in the state.

You would think after after a game like this, that they'll retain their retain their city, there's standing in the state. So we'll we'll keep monitoring that. If you want to follow I post some of the stats and other games and information for both the state JUCO state and then also for the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference out on my Twitter feed at Vince outlaw so you can check me out there and then at the SD city times for a lot of a lot of other things to

SD city times.com as well to read any information about the knights and anything else going on at San Diego City College. And I think that wraps up for us today. What a game was a blast announcing with you once again and we'll be back. February 7. Here at Harry West gym. I'm pretty certain it's February 7. And we'll see you next time for me Joe and Vince take care
