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!

Rehashing the Michael Porter Jr. trade and an incredible 24 hours for Ben Tenzer and Jon Wallace
In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene three days after the stunning trade of Michael Porter Jr. to the Brooklyn Nets. Among the topics discussed:
+ The Nuggets' two-man brain trust turned Porter's salary into four players: Cam Johnson, Jonas Valanciunas, Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway Jr. How in the world did they pull this off? And how long had executives Ben Tenzer and Jon Wallace been mapping this out?
+ How much better does this make the Nuggets? What will the rotation look like come October? And how many of these players will actually be able to give the Nuggets depth in the postseason?
+In light of the first two weeks of the Tenzer-Wallace era, what's the confidence in this setup working going forward? Could other moves be made? Could these wizards find a way to dump Zeke Nnaji's contract, too? Maybe cure cancer?
+ Ranking the contenders after free agency and the draft: The boys all provide their our own Top 10 following player acquisition season.
+ Loose ends: Thoughts on the NBA Finals and the tragedy that was Tyrese Haliburton's Game 7 injury.
