Welcome back to the latest episode of the Nuggets Ink podcast! Today, our beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert are here to discuss the exciting news of Russell Westbrook potentially joining the Denver Nuggets in free agency. As we eagerly anticipate this addition to our team, there are a few topics that we can't help but delve into.
First and foremost, we have to wonder: is Westbrook, at almost 36 years old, still capable of being a favorite among the Mile High fans? And more importantly, can he bring the Nuggets back to the NBA Finals? Of course, we all have high hopes for this star player, but it's worth considering who would be the ideal teammate to play alongside him on the second unit.
Speaking of teammates, with the departure of KCP, has the Nuggets' starting five taken a step back this season? On the bright side, have we gained more depth in our roster compared to last year? These are important questions to consider as we analyze our team's strengths and weaknesses.
Unfortunately, we also have to address the news of rookie DaRon Holmes II's Achilles tendon injury during his first Summer League game. This is definitely a setback for Denver, but how much will it affect our plans for the upcoming season? And what can we learn from the performances of our players in Las Vegas?
On a lighter note, the Paris Olympics are just around the corner and we can't help but wonder which of our star players, Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray, is most likely to bring back a medal. We have high hopes for both of them and can't wait to see them represent the Nuggets on the international stage.
