In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, beat writer Mike Singer and deputy sports editor Matt Schubert discuss the season opener and Jamal Murray's return to the court. Among the topics discussed:

+ The Nuggets lost their season opener in a lackluster performance against the Utah Jazz. What were some of the positives that could be taken from the 123-102 setback? And some of the negatives? And how did Murray look in his first regular season game in 18 months?

+ Singer fields a handful of listener questions from Twitter, including: What's up with Zeke Nnaji not getting any minutes on opening night? Does coach Michael Malone need to adjust his message to the team? Can Bones Hyland average 20 points per game? Why doesn't Denver have a better plan offensively when Nikola Jokic isn't on the court? Will Ish Smith get more playing time?
