NBA Pickem Week 7: Same Old Season Edition: With the end of the In-Season Tournament and the Los Angeles Lakers sewing their new championship banner, the NBA returns to normal play this week with doubleheaders on TNT, NBA TV and ESPN. The first game is tonight on TNT when the Lakers play the Mavs. Howard_T wins the week with 57. I'm in first overall. Make your picks and think good thoughts for the Spurs after 17 straight losses.

The In-Season Tournament was entertaining after the group stage. Maybe they should go full knockout.

Missed Tuesday's games because I was doing 3 weeks worth of laundry and getting ready to go to Celtics vs Cavs. If there is such a thing as a defensive battle in the NBA, that was it. I'm looking forward to Thursday night.

Probably just as well that I forgot to submit my entries given my performance last week.
