Later, Nick breaks down what Jayson Tatum's return will look like for Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics. Is Tatum necessary for the Celtics to win the NBA Finals. Next, Nick reacts to Lu Dort's cheap shot on Nikola Jokic in Thunder-Nuggets and why he believes the reaction will hinder OKC's chances of repeating. #VolumeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Celtics fall to the Spurs, 125-116, in a measuring-stick game, but it was overshadowed by Jaylen Brown's ridiculous ejection. Derrick White played great, Jayson Tatum keeps getting back to being Tatum, Ron Harper Jr. exploded, and Wemby was an alien. But it's hard not to feel like we got robbed by the refs of a potential classic.

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by discussing Justin's trip to Las Vegas and his bet on the Celtics to win the title, just before Jayson Tatum's return. Some initial thoughts from Tatum's return and if the Celtics are favorites now. Plus a quick detour in Warm Up Jumpers into the best offensive/defensive ratings currently, the state of Carolina sports and pay homage to a Philly advertising radio legend. Next, the duo heads out West to take inventory on where they are at with the contenders with 20 games to go. Denver has struggled amid Jokic's return and the guys debate if the Nuggets can turn it on. They also discuss the surging Timberwolves, OKC maintaining their #1 seed and the Spurs looking like true finals contenders. Are the Rockets and Lakers a factor at all? In Who's Ballin Who's Fallin, Jared McCain's hot start in OKC (and Kevin ranting about the Sixers being inept), the Knicks hang 142 on the Nuggets, Dillon Brooks gets arrested, and a look at the tank race. Finally, another round of Immaculate Grid. Listen to the show wherever you get your podcasts and watch the show on YouTube!

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley without Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour watching the snow come down as they remark on the incredible depth the Nuggets have built up. They chat about the Kadri deal being snuffed out by Calgary's owner. Stoke takes shots at Stink as he calls for the Broncos to cut Ben Powers. The guys rag on Stink some more and discuss how concerned they are with Jokic’s recent turnover issues. Will the Avs’ game in Dallas tonight decide the outcome of the Central division? Mike explains why it isn’t do-or-die. The guys pose a question to end the third hour: how many games do the Rockies need to LOSE for the 2026 season to be a success?  

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley without Mark Schlereth open the second hour wondering where Mark is before they recap a must-win game over the Lakers. AG is set to return tonight versus the Knicks, does the Nuggets real season start now? The guys preview some 4-point games coming up for the Avalanche after the trade deadline. We figure out how Stink is letting everybody down yet again. They break the news to Broncos Country that the team probably isn’t making any moves to their WR group. Mike and Stoke point out a shocking stat about the Nuggets as they talk about the help that Jokic is getting from the rest of the team. Mike put his ear to the ground and he takes a leap on why the Avs couldn’t have a reunion with Nazem Kadri. The Morning Crew wrap up the second hour in 4 Down Territory where the Broncos are making their final preparations for Free Agent Frenzy, Stoke thinks Zach will be disappointed in DJ Moore, a TE option stays off the board, and a star LB is available.  

On Episode 125 of The Shoot Around, Brandon Harper and seven-time NBA champion Robert Horry talk from Houston as Horry explains why he schedules dentist visits there. They discuss whether a recent hit on Nikola Jokic was a cheap shot, with Horry contrasting it to his own Steve Nash incident, calling his action petty and frustration-driven, and noting Jokic’s fall looked like a flop.   They debate late-season MVP finalists and the impact of the 65-game threshold, with Harper favoring Cade Cunningham and Horry backing Jaylen Brown for two-way play and team results, plus a sidebar on the Spurs’ young guards and unselfish team styles.   They reject a Mississippi proposal to exempt NIL earnings from state income tax, discuss potential travel-related NIL taxation, share favorite trash talkers (including a notorious Washington fan, Kevin Garnett, and Gary Payton), react to the Cardinals’ $29 all-you-can-eat ticket deal, and end with a joke prompt about the worst possible casting for the next James Bond.   00:00 Friday Show Intro 00:35 Dentist Trip Debate 01:51 Cheap Shot Talk 03:28 Nash Table Story 04:18 MVP Race Picks 06:51 Celtics Spurs Receipts 08:23 NIL Tax Exemption 11:03 Best Trash Talkers 13:59 All You Can Eat Tickets 16:21 Worst James Bond Casting

The Nuggets beat the Lakers 120-113 last night to get their second win in a row. This victory was a lot more vibey and, while not perfect, was significantly better on the vibe scale than their nadir against the Jazz. Also Jeff talks about Stan Van Gundy's observation about how Jokic is allowed to be officiated. Is this a shift in how broadcasters are perceiving "The Jokic rules" by other teams? Enjoy the show!

Last night, the Nuggets survived a late rally by the Lakers and won 120-113. Denver won wire-to-wire and made some strides, as Jokic and Murray had solid performances. Nuggets play the Knicks tonight and Aaron Gordon is expected to return to the starting line-up. How different will the team will look with him on the court? Also, the Avalanche have their 3rd line center—as they traded a conditional 1st round pick and a 5th round pick to Toronto for Nicolas Roy. How much does this move the needle on the Avs winning a Cup? The Avalanche and Stars face-off tonight in Dallas. These are the top two teams in the league and they've only played once this season—and it was the 3rd game of the year. Is it fair to say this is a measuring stick game for both teams? Finally, ESPN did its annual Top-100 player rankings and no Rockies made the list. Is this surprising at all? Tune in to a Friday episode of Hot Takes with Eric Goodman and Troy Renck!

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil debate if the Broncos should be interested in Stefon Diggs with the news that the Patriots will release him. Would Diggs on field production be worth the off-the field distractions he brings? Should the Broncos have been interested in DJ Moore as he was traded today from Chicago to Buffalo? We debate who the biggest "dawg" is on the Broncos. We react to the Avalanche adding depth to their team in trading for Nicolas Roy today. Should Avs Faithful be upset the Avalanche didn't bring in Kadri instead of Roy? We preview tonight's Nuggets and Lakers matchup and Zach explains why he doesn't see the Lakers as true title contenders, despite their record. Will JJ Reddick and the Lakers be able to throw off Jokic tonight? 

0:00 - Rumors are swirling about Val Nichushkin being a trade option for the Avalanche. Brett says that's not a good idea. The Avs need to keep him on the roster.16:31 - Yesterday, Lu Dort apologized for his dirty move on Nikola Jokic. That's good and all, but the damage is already done. As Mark Daigneault so eloquently put it, the precedent has been established. And look, it's not just sour grapes from Nuggets fans. The entire NBA is turning on the Thunder and their flopping.31:27 - Teams are finally figuring out how to guard Jokic. The Nuggets need to figure out how to deal with it. It's a unique situation, and it'll require a unique solution.

Jay Bilas joins Mo and Coach Brendan Suhr for a full breakdown of what might be the deepest NBA draft class in history. If you're trying to figure out who to watch beyond the big three of Darryn Peterson, AJ Dybantsa and Cameron Boozer - and whether this freshman class really is as stacked as everyone says - this is the episode to listen or watch.Jay explains why he'd still take Cooper Flagg number one over every prospect in this year's class, what's really going on with Darren Peterson's availability, and the sleeper names that NBA scouts are quietly circling. The conversation goes deep on the art versus science of the draft, with stories about Michael Jordan falling to third, Jerry West outworking everyone in the league, and Kobe Bryant going 13th overall.The trio also tackles some of the NBA's biggest current debates: should teams be tanking for this draft? Is the 65-game rule fair when genuinely injured players like Jokic miss the cut? And why the American basketball development system might need to drop its arrogance and learn from international pathways. Plus, Jay shares stories from his time as Coach K's graduate assistant at Duke and what makes Jon Scheyer a coaching genius.Topics covered: The historically deep 2026 NBA Draft freshman class Sleeper prospects: Caleb Wilson, Keaton Wagler, Nate Ament, Darius Acuff, Milan Momcilovic Cooper Flagg vs this year's class - where Jay would rank him Darren Peterson's availability and the narrative problem The art vs science of the NBA Draft Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and Greg Oden draft stories Jerry West's unmatched work ethic as a GM American vs international player development and the soccer connection Jon Scheyer and Duke's coaching succession Tanking incentives and the 65-game award rule The flagrant foul debate

Send a textPower without competence looks the same on a warehouse floor as it does on an NFL sideline. We open with everyday leadership—those “leads in training” who get the title but not the respect—and use it to frame a bigger sports question: when do names, roles, and reputations actually translate to trust? From there, we dive into a full Falcons reset: the Cousins contract autopsy, what “bad” really means when a bet fails, and the live decision facing Atlanta—double down on Michael Penix Jr. or press the gas with a proven starter like Kyler, Tua, or even Flacco. We challenge the sacred cow that the quarterback must be the franchise's north star, and unpack how accountability, body language, and scheme fit matter more than slogans.Culture threads through everything. Cleveland's low player grade for Kevin Stefanski sparks a wider look at how much is coach, how much is ownership, and why free agency choices will tell the truth. Then it's over to the NBA, where the Hawks' uneven year, injuries, and roster churn set the stage for Jonathan Kuminga's immediate impact. Talent didn't appear out of nowhere; the fit did. That leads us straight into the MVP cage match: best player versus most valuable player. We weigh Jokic's historic dominance, SGA's steadying force, and Cade's irreplaceability case while pushing back on stat-chasing and media-led narratives. Awards need evidence tied to winning, context, and who keeps a team's floor from collapsing.The final turn is personal. News of strikes near Bahrain isn't a headline for us; it's a map of places we lived, ate, and walked. That proximity shifts how we talk about war, service, and who bears the cost when powerful people make imperfect decisions. Sports can feel like an escape, but the same truths apply: strong systems beat loud speeches, clear roles beat big titles, and real leadership shows up when pressure is highest. If you're here for honest football talk, sharp NBA takes, and a human lens on what headlines miss, you're in the right place.If this hit home or challenged your thinking, follow the show, share it with a friend, and drop a review telling us what “leadership” means to you.Support the show

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue their conversation on the Rockies and debate what would be a successful season for the team. We pivot to the Broncos and react to Russell Wilson addressing his tweet in which he fired back at Sean Payton after Payton took a shot at Wilson. What did the guys make of Russ defending himself? Will the Broncos re-vamp the offensive line? Could Alex Palczewski step into Ben Powers' role is Powers is cut or traded? We react to the Nuggets winning a tight one against a bad team in the Jazz. Is it fair to be concerned with the Nuggets defensive effort after barley winning a game in which Jamal Murray shot at a superhuman rate and the team shot at a 50/40/90 rate? Zach shares the impressive stats Nathan MacKinnon is putting up this season and how he is likely on his way to another MVP trophy. Will Nate become the first Avs player ever and join Jokic as the only Denver athlete to win multiple MVP's? We react to Mike Evans' comments on Gabe Landeskog underachieving and debate if Mike is fair to criticize Landy. 

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover and Cecil.

Short Kings Pritchard and Reed win the night

0:00 - All season long, the Broncos were winning. But Brett still complained about HOW they were winning. It never looked right. Well, now it's time to do that with the Nuggets. Last night's win was ugly. Beyond ugly. And they need to get it cleaned up ASAP. They don't look like a championship team right now.12:28 - We're so laser focused on the Avs struggling PP (and rightfully so) but let's not forget - this team is in a really good place. They've won 40 games! We'll see if they can make it 41 tonight. They're facing the Ducks in Anaheim on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. What are the keys to an Avs victory?30:11 - Jokic will never get favorable calls from the refs. His tussle with Keyonte George last night is futher proof. No matter how rattled he gets, he can't flop for a superstar whistle like his contemporaries.

Richie Carni and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth open the second hour discussing the very scrappy outing the Nuggets had against the OKC Thunder. Do you agree with how Jokic conducted themselves, or do you like the edge they showed? The Broncos’ had a specific trait at a premium when they were scouting RB’s at the Combine, but is it what they need at the position? They look at who Mel Kiper has the Broncos taking in his latest mock draft as they debate the merits of taking a boring pick versus the sexy pick. The Morning Crew wrap up the second hour in 4 Down Territory where Von Miller is working toward life after football, two great deals for the upcoming baseball season, and some home cooking in OT.  

Joker got angry after Lu Dort of OKC tripped him, and Charles Barkley said he understands Jokic's reaction. Also, I want to see fighting in basketball. What's the biggest issue with the Denver Nuggets - Injuries or coaching? We hear from David Adelman and Nikola Jokic.

Bengals just re-signed Colorado's own Dalton Risner to a 1 year deal. The Eagles have a high asking price for AJ Brown - will anyone take the bait? I make an against the grain prediction with the Colorado Rockies… They're going to be in the MLB playoff hunt this season. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
