In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene after the first week of the regular season. Among the topics discussed:
+ Jamal Murray is tired of hearing about slow starts, and he proved as much Monday night by dropping 43 points on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Is this the year Murray finally gets the All-Star recognition that's eluded him?
+ Aaron Gordon got the season started with a 50-burger against the Golden State Warriors. The Nuggets forward says he's not as athletic as he once was, but is he the best he's been at basketball, as he contended this offseason?
+ Is Tim Hardaway Jr. going to be the Nuggets' sixth man all season? How has Jonas Valanciunas fit in with the second unit? Is Julian Strawther going to remain tethered to the bench?
+ Christian Braun got his big-money extension, but fellow fourth-year player Peyton Watson didn't. What does that mean for them and the future of the franchise?
+ How has new head coach David Adelman fared running the show? His rotations? His adjustments? What's been different between how he runs things and how Michael Malone did?
+ Emails and iTunes reviews ... would've been read had anyone sent them in!

Nikola Jokic passes on extension, Jonas Valanciunas visits Greece and Summer League
In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene following DaRon Holmes II's glorious return to NBA Summer League. Among the topics discussed:
+ Nikola Jokic caused a stir in NBA circles by ... doing nothing?! Denver's MVP center became extension-eligible last week but declined to sign on the dotted line, according to league sources. Here's why Nuggets fans need not freak out — yet.
+ Jonas Valanciunas caused a stir in NBA circles by ... visiting Greece?! The recently acquired backup to Jokic was offered a three-year contract by EuroLeague power Panathinaikos, and Valanciunas signaled mutual interest by visiting Greece. Yet the Nuggets hold all the cards. What happens next?
+ Nuggets big man DaRon Holmes II returned to NBA Summer League a year after rupturing an Achilles tendon at the very same venue. How did the second-year player look? And how might he slot into what's becoming a deep Nuggets rotation?
+ With the Cam Johnson-MPJ trade now complete, the fellas ponder if the Nuggets might now have a better starting five than when the franchise won the NBA title in 2023.
What's Denver's best public park? You better believe the fellas have some opinions.
