Denver Stiffs: for Denver Nuggets fans

The Nuggets endure a long road trip and win their first game back at home but not without a little drama. Checkout the latest episode for the lowdown on what the Nuggets really want for Christmas.

On this episode of The Chick N' Nuggets podcast we have the great honor of speaking with long time basketball analyst and senior writer for the Action Network, Matt Moore.  I pick Matt's brain on some of the major ongoing themes this season within the NBA and society as a whole. One of those themes being the GMs forming an association to support high ranking executives in situations such as the one Portland is going through at this time.  Matt and I also discuss the Bol Bol phenomenon and where we gage this team is truly at, at this point in the season.

Nuggets finally give up 100 to a depleted Sixers team.

An episode recapping the Nuggets 4 game winning streak.

With all the things going on in the world, with athletes across the Olympics taking a stand for their mental health, it seemed a good moment to ground the show and "Play Present," as sports psychologist, Graham Betchart would say. Graham is the author of the book "Play Present" and co-founded the mental skills website trainthemind.com with Nuggets power forward, Aaron Gordon.  Graham works with athletes of all ages and across professional sports on mental skills training, with meditations and visualizations. Graham lends his expertise to the show to explain how deep the mental game goes in some of the most intense high pressure moments these NBA athletes experience. He speaks to the mental skills tools that players like Aaron Gordon, Ben Simmons, and Zach LaVine practice regularly and how the greatest players lean into their greatest fears.  https://trainthemind.com  @Grahamtheguide

In the final episode of the 2021 post-season, Jena and Reilly reminisce on the Suns series, the season as a whole and the ups and downs of the last year. After a tough loss that led to a second round season sweep, it was a sad start to the week for Denver sports fans but, in the words of Michael Malone, “We are not going to let this series define the season.”
