In the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, host Matt Schubert and beat writer Bennett Durando wildly overreact to the Nuggets’ 4-0 start. Among the topics discussed:

  • The fellas discuss four wild overreactions to the first five percent of the NBA season. Does it matter that head coach Michael Malone hates overreactions? Short answer? Not here.
  • Is Peyton Watson for real? The second-year pro is shooting over 60 percent for the season and tallying 1.5 blocks so far. Time to start engraving the trophy for Sixth Man of the Year?
  • Bennett, still working on growing his first legitimate beard at the recording of this podcast, discusses his Halloween costume and potential for others in the remaining years of his youth.
  • The first annual NBA in-season tournament begins this week. Are the courts merely bad Halloween costumes masquerading as good taste? Can the Nuggets win their group? Does it matter?
  • Is a surprise James Harden in your candy bar the new razorblade in a Snickers this Oct. 31? Bennett thinks so.
