Zach, Dan and Ashley got together to talk about the latest in Nuggets news and they were filled with optimism seeing as how the podcast was recorded hours before the Denver Nuggets disappointing loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Alas, such is the podcast life. Nonetheless a lot of good topics were covered including recapping the week’s worth of games, holding off the Portland Trail Blazers for the eight seed, who would make for a better playoff opponent the San Antonio Spurs or the Golden State Warriors, and would the Nuggets even have a chance against either of those two teams.
