Is the new big-man rivalry between Jokic and Victor Wembanyama? + The Nuggets are red hot after winning six of their last seven games. How much of this run can be pinned on the injury woes affecting their opponents? How much is just the Nuggets hitting their stride? How much is getting Aaron Gordon back in the lineup? + The recent run of success also happens to have coincided with the insertion of Russell Westbrook into the starting lineup. Should the Nuggets keep the veteran point guard in the starting five, even after Gordon is fully acclimated? Should Christian Braun go to the bench? Or should Michael Malone go back to his original starting five as early as possible? + Is Nikola Jokic's elbow injury a cause for concern? Why won't he share what caused the injury in the first place? Matt goes full tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist. + The fellas power rank the Nuggets' biggest threats in the Western Conference.
