All-Star starters are announced, the new international team format is coming, half the league is injured, and the trade deadline is now days away.On this episode of the Hoop Genius Podcast, Mo and Coach Brendan Suhr break down everything shaping the league right now. They react to the All-Star starters in the East and West, debate whether Anthony Edwards was snubbed, and explain why Steph Curry, Wembanyama, and the international stars changed the entire structure of this year's game. They also dig into why winning should matter more in All-Star voting, why Embiid doesn't deserve to make it, and which players actually belong on the new international roster.The conversation shifts to the teams no one can figure out. The Timberwolves' inconsistency, Ant's on-off nights, and why Denver keeps winning even without Jokic. Peyton Watson's breakout, role players stepping up, and what that says about real internal development versus empty stats.Then it turns dark for Golden State. Jimmy Butler's non-contact ACL injury, Steph Curry still playing at an All-Star level at 37, and why the Warriors are now stuck in no-man's land.

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover. The guys discuss if this will be a week where Evan Engram breaks out with big production and how many pass attempts they are expecting from Jarrett Stidham. Zach and Phil debate if the pressure has shifted to Vance Joseph and the Broncos defense with Bo Nix's injury. Does the Broncos defense need to get back to their dominant ways to give the Broncos a chance to win? Will Vance be the "fall guy" if the Broncos fall short on Sunday? We dive into Patriots quarterback Drake Maye and what kind of threat he presents to the Broncos. How have Maye's numbers fared vs the Texans and Chargers in the playoffs? We react to the Nuggets falling to the Lakers on national television last night. Will we see more teams adjust the way the Lakers did and sell out to stop Jamal Murray and make the "others" beat them while Jokic is sidelined with an injury?

0:00 - Are the Patriots a problem on offense? How do their offensive weapons stack up to Denver's defense?21:25 - Mike McDaniel is headed to the Los Angeles Chargers to be their OC. The Broncos will now have to face him twice a year. He's a weird dude and maybe isn't a good head coach, but he's still a brilliant offensive mind. His weirdness will work with Harbaugh, and his playcalling will complement Justin Herbert. Watch out.Also, it's been fun watching the depleted Nuggets win improbably games on the strength of pure friendship alone. But enough is enough. We need our big guns back, and that starts with Jokic.34:45 - Thankfully, it won't be windy or rainy on Sunday. But it's supposed to be COLD. Bundle up, Denver. The AFC Championship game could be frigid.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue their deep dive into the Broncos and Bills divisional round matchup tomorrow. What is the biggest reason the Broncos will win on Saturday?

Our 9News Broncos insider Mike Klis joins the show to discuss who the most important player outside of Bo Nix is for the Broncos offense, if Sean Payton will commit to the run game, and much more.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil look into the history between Broncos head coach, Sean Payton and Bills head coach, Sean McDermott. Will the Bills be able to pull off what the Commanders did last year by playing on short rest and upsetting the number one seed in the divisional round? Will the Broncos defense be able to create a turnover from Josh Allen after he's played so well the past 5 games? We share the stats and score splits for the Broncos when playing at home vs playing on the road. Today's "Three Count" includes the stats behind how the NFL's leading sack team fares in the playoffs like the Broncos and the Nuggets doing it again without Jokic while Murray and AG lead the team. We hear from Broncos DC Vance Josheph on the challenge of Josh Allen and the guys debate how the Broncos will surprise Josh will coverage and well-timed blitzes.

0:00 - Brett Kane is fighting the Denver Plauge, so DMac is back in studio to drive the bus.Second night of a back-to-back, no Jokic, no problem. The Nuggets beat Dallas last night in Dallas and they're now #2 in the West. This stretch of non-Jokic games has gone better than any of us could've predicted or imagined, and it's awesome.15:46 - Did Moser actually do some research into Saturday's Broncos game?? Did he look something up and then draw a conclusion based on what he found?? Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit.35:40 - We tweeted something that angered Bills Mafia. They've staged an electronic attack on us that we haven't seen since the Greeks and Panathanaikos fans this summer.

0:00 - The Nuggets keep finding ways to win without Jokic, and they did it again last night in Dallas. From here on out, we don't want to hear any more excuses. Denver has proven they can win games with whoever is able to lace em up on any given night. "Oh, they lost because they were missing [insert player name here] isn't an acceptable excuse any more, and that's a good thing.17:07 - We're making a call to the bullpen! DMac out, Raj in!The Bills Mafia got mad at us online for suggesting that the key to a Broncos victory is stopping the run. Raj dug up some numbers, and low and behold: when James Cook rushes for less than 100 yards, the Bills usually lose.32:26 - Jamal Murray is reaching new heights. He's even surpassed "Playoff Murray" or the so-called "Bubble Murray." 

0:00 - What's the blueprint for a Denver victory over Buffalo this Saturday? We previewed the game with our ESPN Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold.13:35 - In June 2024, the Dallas Mavericks were in the NBA Finals! Now, they're at the bottom of the barrell. How the mighty have fallen. As long as we live, we'll never understand the Luka Doncic - Anthony Davis trade.After that, what's next for Mike Tomlin? Will he return to coaching? Should he? Or should he ride off into the media sunset and become a commentator/analyst?33:42 - According to Shams, Jokic's recovery is going very well. He could be back sooner than expected. Unlike all of us on the show, Jokic is a fast healer.

0:00 - The Jokic-less Nuggets won AGAIN! This is not how we saw these games going, but in a good way! Peyton Watson is having himself a month. His play in January has been fantastic. You know who isn't feeling well? Poor Brett Kane. He barely survived the Appetizer then had to leave the building. The Plague comes for all of us eventually.17:42 - Did Luca Evans kick Sean Payton's dog or something? Sean really has a bone to pick with Luca "My Name is Luca" Evans for some reason. He got after Luca again yesterday. Do we care about how he treats Luca? Is it "real" or is it playful?36:07 - Peyton Watson is absolutely playing himself into a contract extension with the Nuggets. No question. But the problem is...can they afford him? Do they want to go into the aapron to keep him? If they don't, what are their options?

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour previewing the Broncos’ matchup with the Bills. Is the key to victory Bo’s legs? The guys check in on the Jokic-less Nuggets and the rolling Avs. They debate the way Bears coach Ben Johnson conducted himself after beating the Packers. They make their predictions for the National championship game and Stink breaks down Fernando Mendoza’s game as the Raiders’ presumptive next QB. The guys break down the Broncos’ weaknesses on defense ahead of the divisional round before addressing some Merilatt twitter drama.  

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the wild wildcard round we saw in the NFL playoffs this weekend. Will Josh Allen be the best quarterback the Broncos defense has faced this season? How was the Rams and Panthers game so much closer than everyone assumed it would be? How impressive was Caleb Williams leading an all-time comeback in his playoff debut? Did we overestimate the Chargers after they looked terrible against the Patriots? Phil explains why he would be open to AJ Brown becoming a Bronco in the future. Today's "Three Count" features if Drew Sanders can be a contributor after being activated for return from injury, the Avalanche steamrolling the Blue Jackets 4-0 over the weekend to extend their home hot streak, and Dante apologizing to Zach after defending Dan Lanning and Oregon vs Indiana. We react to the Nuggets pulling off another win without Jokic with Watson, Hardway Jr. and Nnaji all balling out. 

0:00 - It's official! Next Saturday, the Broncos will host the Bills in the Divisional Round. It's a rematch of last year's Broncos playoff game. How do we feel about the Bills this time around?21:16 - Wild Card weekend did not disappoint! It rarely does. I hope you spent the whole weekend on your tuchus watching football. 34:48 - The Jokic-less Nuggets beat the Milwaukee Bucks last night! Somehow, this scrappy squad keeps finding a way. 

0:00 - The stage is set. The Broncos will host the Bills on Saturday in the Divisional Round. Denver's out for revenge, baby. They got straight up embarrassed last year in their playoff game in Buffalo. Can they flip the script this time around?10:29 - This game vs the Bills will come down to the last possession. No question. Which scenario would you rather have: Broncos defense oneeds to make a stop to secure the win? Or Broncos offense needs to drive down the field and score to secure the win?28:24 - In these Jokic-less games, Zeke Nnaji has looked like a servicable rotation piece. He's looking like the NBA talent we've always hoped he could be. Does this mean Adelman will keep using him? Or does it mean he's increased his trade value as the deadline gets closer?

Denver Nuggets — 0:23How have they played without Jokic, plus a breakdown of the best passing stretch of Jamal Murray's career.Portland Trail Blazers / Houston Rockets — 12:12A set between these teams saw the Rockets change their approach against Deni Avdija, but he dominated crunchtime on Friday nonetheless.Sacramento Kings / Golden State Warriors — 35:27Sacramento has a discordant present, while the Warriors are in a mini-surgeDallas Mavericks — 54:00We take stock of what AD was able to do this season, plus what a possible end to that season means for the MavsMemphis Grizzlies — 1:09:19We look around the league again for a Ja Morant team, but focus on the Grizz present with Cedric Coward's willingness to do the dirty work.

The Celtics come into this game as one of the hottest teams in the NBA playing against a Nuggets team without Jokic and walk out with a 114-110 loss. Jamal Murray absolutely ripped apart the Celtics defense and ended up with 17 assists!!! Peyton Watson, who averages 12PPG ended the night with 30pts on 6-7 from 3 and was a walking bucket all night.
