In hour three of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Mike and Stoke try to convince Stink that The Nuggets still have a chance to win a championship despite how soft they have played early on.  The Broncos had a good draft, according to Cecil Lammey and other local draft analysts, but how does Mel Kiper feel about it?  The Nuggets had a huge game from Spencer Jones and Stoke is excited even though Mark is not. 

Seth and Sean react to LeVeon Bell throwing a wild accusation out from his time with the Jets, Mike Greenberg blaming his "research" for saying Denzel Boston was David Boston's son, and Sean gets petty that Mel Kiper is claiming he hasn't gone to the bathroom during the past 43 drafts.

How has Nuggets Nation gone from super confident to start the series to an eerie feeling in Ball Arena? What did the guys make of the odd gamesmanship from Jokic in the final seconds of the game? We discuss the Peyton Watson situation and if we expect to see him suit up for the Nuggets anytime soon. Would the organization "clear" Watson to add pressure on him to return to playing? Is Aaron Gordon's resiliency and eagerness to play through injury making Watson look even worse? We break down the Broncos 4th and 5th round picks, Kage Casey and Justin Joly. Should we expect anything from either Casey or Joly in their rookie seasons, or will they be developmental projects? 

In the 3rd hour, Dover and Cecil recapped last night Nuggets win over the Timberwolves. How did this team adjust without Aaron Gordon in the lineup? The guys discussed if the Nuggets can really comeback and win this series. The fellas reacted to Mel Kiper giving the Broncos a C+ grade while Cecil gave the Broncos a higher grade.
