In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene as Denver prepares to face the Los Angeles Clippers in the NBA Playoffs. Among the topics discussed:
- The Nuggets closed out the regular season 3-0 under interim head coach David Adelman. What’s the vibe around the team been since the firing of Michael Malone and Calvin Booth? Was it the right call to turn to Adelman?
- Awaiting the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs? The red-hot Los Angeles Clippers. How do they match up against a Los Angeles roster that appears deeper and more talented? Who holds the edge on the perimeter? In the paint? Could Adelman provide a measure of unpredictability that gives Denver an advantage?
- A break down the rest of the matchups in the Western Conference, including a fun one on the opposite side of the bracket between the Los Angeles Lakers and Minnesota Timberwolves.
- Where does Clippers wing Kawhi Leonard rank among the scariest individual playoff performers in the field? The fellas pull off an impromptu draft.
- How did Bennett’s NBA awards ballot go? Did Nikola Jokic earn his MVP vote? All is revealed.
