The Drive | Hour 4 | 12.26.24
Description
In hour 4 of The Drive, James Merilatt and Kyle Reese continue their conversation on Bo Nix and if he is “special” or closer to a Mac Jones, Daniel Jones or Trevor Simien? Has Bo Nix proven he is the next franchise quarterback of the Broncos? Is it more likely that Bo Nix leads the Broncos to Super Bowls, or his rookie season is his best season as a pro? We pivot to the Nuggets and Coach Malone’s coaching style and how it changes when criticizing his stars in Jokic and Murray vs how he criticizes the rest of the team. The Nuggets fell to the Suns on Christmas Day as Aaron Gordon went down with an injury that will sideline him for at least Friday’s game vs the Cavs. Would trading Michael Porter Jr. for a Zach Lavine or Jimmy Butler fix the Nuggets issues? James makes the case that the Nuggets trading MPJ would be “trading the wrong guy” and Jamal Murray makes more sense to trade when the team is able to do so. We wrap up the show with the top 5 gifts for each of the Denver sports, the Broncos, Nuggets, Buffs, Avalanche, and Rockies.
