In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene after NBA free agency opens and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope leaves for Orlando. Among the topics discussed:
- Now that KCP has left the Nuggets for the Orlando Magic on a three-year deal, where does that leave Denver? Is Christian Braun ready for a bigger role? How will his exit cascade down through the rest of the roster?
- There’s been rumors about the Nuggets kicking the tires on Russell Westbrook as a possible addition. Would he be a good fit in Denver? Is Jamal Murray signing an extension?
- Did Calvin Booth give up too much draft capital to move up and acquire DaRon Holmes with the 22nd overall pick of the NBA draft? How will Holmes slot into the lineup? Should Nuggets fans be worried that Booth has traded away so many picks, including the two second-rounders he had to send Charlotte to get off Reggie Jackson’s salary?
- Who has improved the most early on in free agency? Are the Oklahoma City Thunder suddenly the no-doubt favorites in the Western Conference?
