UPDATED:

In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink Podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene after a miraculous comeback at Golden State and fourth-quarter fade vs. Orlando. Among the topics discussed:

  • Nikola Jokic didn’t call glass from 39 feet, but the basket counted anyway against the Golden State Warriors. Where does the shot rank among the ever-growing lore of Jokic game-winners and clutch shots?
  • Michael Porter Jr. was diplomatic in his response to a question about his lack of fourth-quarter shots. Is this a real problem for the Nuggets? Does Denver need to rethink how it closes out games?
  • Has Peyton Watson surpassed all expectations and fellow young teammates to earn a spot in the conversation of defensive stopper alongside Aaron Gordon and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope?
  • The Kentucky Wildcats draft saw Matt, Bennett and AAron Ontiveroz square off. Who is the Wildcat GM of note?
