In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink Podcast, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert reconvene hours after the NBA trade deadline comes to a close. Among the topics discussed:

+ Who are the winners and losers from the trade deadline? Who got better? Who got worse? Have any new contenders emerged?

+ The Nuggets stood pat at the deadline, with their lone deal involving the rights to a player who wasn't even on their 18-man roster.  Is the path to another title secure with Reggie Jackson, Peyton Watson and Christian Braun coming off the bench?

+ The All-NBA and MVP 65-game threshold is suddenly the talk of the league following Joel Embiid's injury. Is it fair to the players to put a requirement on the number of games played? Matt and Bennett debate.
