Merry Christmas/Christmas Eve to all! Is there a gift receipt for Denver's loss to the Sacramento Kings in the season opener? Dave and Kendra share their reactions to the Nuggets first contest of the new season (:45). How concerning was Jamal Murray's performance, and Will Barton's night-in, night-out output is vital to this club's success (6:15). Dave and Kendra dish on their irrational takeaways from game one, including: P.J. Dozier is going to more important for Denver this season than Torrey Craig last year (14:00). Plus, the dynamite Denver duo preview the Nuggets' Christmas game against the Los Angeles Clippers (18:45).
