Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys preview the Nuggets and Kings game tonight. How will Jalen Pickett make an impact in the absence of Julian Strawther? How will the Nuggets fare against lesser than teams in Sacramento and Phoenix, this week? Should the Nuggets rest Jokic in spots down the stretch to rest him for the playoffs? Two years ago, the Broncos made a huge decision to let Dre’Mont Jones walk in free agency, the guys look back on this decision and if it was the right decision. Has replacing Jones with Zach Allen been the best signing in free agency, George Paton has made during his time in Denver? Zach shares one name in free agency that he views as a need for the Broncos. Would Aaron Jones unlock this offense and show that the Broncos offensive line was not the problem in 2024? Phil shares a name he wants the Broncos to acquire to bring depth to the running back room. We hear from Sean Payton and his thoughts on getting better in the run game.

Phil relates Landy’s surgery to a wrist surgery he went through during his time in the NFL.

How excited are the guys to tune into Landeskog’s behind the scenes documentary? Today’s “Three Count” includes Gardner Minshew becoming available, Lebron James achieving 50,000 points, and people taking issue with Travis Hunter saying what he does is more difficult than what Shohei Ohtani. Would Minshew be a potential fit as the Broncos backup quarterback? Will we ever see anyone come close to breaking Lebron’s scoring record? Does Travis Hunter have to prove he can play both ways at an elite level in the NFL?

Will the Nuggets be able to roll with a 7-man rotation during the playoffs? How big of a factor will Peyton Watson’s return be to the Nuggets? And will he have enough time to reintegrate himself? We hear from ESPN’s Kendrick Perkins and Perkins’ thoughts that someone has replaced Jokic as the best player in the NBA. Is Jokic’s defense the reason people aren’t willing to admit he is not the best player in the world? We pivot to football as Zach questions if it would be a good idea for the Broncos to bring in Bo Nix’s adopted brother, Tez Johnson. We have an update on the Avalanche Mikko Rantanen trade, was there supposed to be another player involved with the trade that was not sent to the Avs because he didn’t want to play in Denver?
