In this episode, I talk about the news that the Washington Wizards have been granted permission to interview Tim Connelly. Connelly is widely credited as the architect of this Denver Nuggets team and is responsible for drafting Nikola Jokic, Gary Harris, and the rest of the core of this team. How would losing him affect the Nuggets future and what would the perception be among Denver Nuggets fans if he left at least in part because he was offered more money elsewhere?

In segment 3, I talk about Juancho Hernangomez having surgery to repair an injury to his core and what that means for his future with the Nuggets.

In this episode, I share my notes from Monday's exit interviews with the Denver Nuggets players. I play an important audio clip from Paul Millsap about "his story" and what he wants for the final stretch of his career. Then, in segment 3, I share 4 perspectives on Denver's playoff run and season. Under the microscope, game 7 invalidated some of the optimism around this team. Face to face, the Nuggets have some work to do. From above, the season was a success with a lot of things trending in the right direction. And from 10,000 feet, only one thing really matters. Find out what that is!

We also talk about the entirety of the playoffs and what we learned about the Nuggets in their playoff debut. Lastly, we ask whether the strengths and weaknesses of this version of the Nuggets have been made clear throughout this season and whether or not the weaknesses can be overcome with internal growth and development.

In this episode I share my notes on Denver's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers in game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals. Aminu and Harkless played fewer minutes while Rodney Hood went scorched Earth on Denver's wings. The 2nd unit fumbled a lead (again) thanks to an off night from Paul Millsap. And the Nuggets' offensive rhythm fell off in the 2nd half.

In this episode I am joined by Airiana Lenarsky, a writer, singer, and Tarot reader for the Ringer's Emmy nominated digital show "NBA Desktop." In segments 1 and 2, Ariana explains how she became a Denver Nuggets fan last year by sheer chance. She also shares he quest to find Robota, the Witch who the Denver Nuggets hired to place a hex on the Indiana Pacers during the 1975 ABA Finals.

In the final segment, we ask what the Nuggets need to do to ever win an NBA championship and pull a tarot card to discover what answers the deck might have in store. You don't have to believe in the magic of tarot to enjoy the segment. As Ariana explains, it's all about fun and you can take it as seriously as woks best for you to enjoy it. But it's a fun bit and she does a great job sharing a part of her personality throughout the whole thing.

In this episode, I share my detailed notes on Game 5 between the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers. The Blazers made a key matchup adjustment and it had the opposite effect as they were hoping. I talk about how switching Enes Kanter onto Paul Millsap backfired despite Kanter "knowing all of Millsap's moves." The Denver bench also may have found a new plan of attack. Damian Lillard played like a superstar but it didn't even move the needle. And Juancho Hernangomez even got his moment in the spotlight.

In this episode, I share my detailed notes on game 4. Jamal Murray had one of his best games of the playoffs and continues to look like a true star in the making. Will Barton got the nod to close the game and knocked down a pair of key three-pointers. Paul Millsap provided a scoring boost when the Denver Nuggets needed it most. And the bench unit, led by Monte Morris, continued to struggle. 

Lastly, I provide a few keys to game 5 and share what I expect for the final 2 or 3 games of this series.
