In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene after the Los Angeles Lakers beat New Orleans in the play-in round to set up another playoff series with Denver. Among the topics discussed:
- The Lakers held on to beat Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans, setting up a third playoff series in five seasons. With the series tied 1-1, can the Nuggets ride their eight-game win streak against the Purple and Gold to the second round?
- With the No. 1 seed on the line and almost in the bag, the Nuggets blew a 23-point lead to the Spurs en route to ending the season at No. 2. Does the seeding matter in a stacked Western Conference?
- Victor Wembanyama is here and it’s official. Has his second-half emergence moved Jokic’s projected titles line?
- Will Bennett reveal his NBA awards ballot? Or will it remain shrouded in mystery?
- Bennett and Matt hand out Nuggets team awards for the 2023-24 season.
