The Drive | Hour 4 | 07.13.26

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the Nuggets and their bizarre offseason. We break down the signings of Marvin Bagley and Tyus Jones, as well as losing Tim Hardaway Jr. and Jonas Valanciunas. Has the Nuggets' offseason been on pause while we wait to see what LeBron James does in free agency? Will the Nuggets still try to shed salary this offseason and field a worse team than we saw last season? How concerned are the guys with Nikola Jokic not signing a contract extension this offseason? Is Jokic holding the organization accountable to field a championship-caliber team around him or holding out for the most money possible? If Jokic walks away from the Nuggets at the end of the season, who would be to blame? We wrap up the show by continuing our conversation on the Nuggets and their standing with Jokic. Could we see Jokic take a pay cut like Victor Wembanyama or Jalen Brunson?
