The Drive with Big Al & Cecil LIVE in studio! Game 3 is tonight between the Cavs & Warriors in the NBA Finals, and Cecil asks Al & Earl Boykins what happens in the NBA if the Warriors finish out the sweep. The guys discuss what kind of coach Joe Woods will be in Denver, and hear some audio from Zach Kerr & Jared Crick at Dove Valley.

LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!!!

Cecil tells Al he’s not a fan of Super Teams, and the guys debate who should be in the basketball HOF, including Melo & Manu. The sizzle move Steph Curry put on LeBron may have been a double-dribble says Cecil, and Al thinks LeBron is currently the third-best player in the world behind Curry & Durant. Earl Boykins joins the show to discuss who will win the NBA Finals & what will happen at Oklahoma now that Bob Stoops has stepped down.

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!!!

The guys discuss what kind of coach Joe Woods will be in Denver, and hear some audio from Zach Kerr & Jared Crick at Dove Valley. Al tells Cecil when he was in the best position in the world communicating with linebacker John Mobley, and how hard it is to fire into a guy while remaining stationary. Also, Cecil says expectations may be too low in ’17 for Paxton & Trevor, and Al might take the entire Raiders setup over the Broncos.

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!!!

Mark Reynolds is quietly having one of the best seasons in Rockies history & still may not make the MLB ASG this summer. Cecil says not everyone is healthy for the Rockies, we are still waiting on Chad Bettis & Jon Gray, and we will be talking playoff baseball with the Rockies this year. Big Al calls Kevin Durant the best player in basketball, and wonders about the timing of Bob Stoops stepping down at Oklahoma. Also, Cecil highlights the Denver Broncos’ upset of the Green Bay Packers in ’97 and Big Al says the Broncos didn’t shock anybody that year.
