Enter the NBA Pickem: The NBA Pickem returns to SportsFilter for the final season of the greatest studio show of all time. TNT is losing its NBA package to NBC and an online bookstore, which means no more Inside the NBA. The Knicks face the Celtics in the season opener Tuesday night on TNT. Pick the games, set some slam dunks and say goodbye to Charles, Shaq, Kenny and Ernie.

My wife and I will watch from our seats in section 316 as Banner 18 rises to the rafters on Tuesday. I've been a Celtics fan for all 18, but this will be the first time I've been there to see it. The deciding game of the Finals and the Duck Boat parade were unforgettable experiences, and we might have the chance to do it again.

Have fun! It's exciting watching a championship banner get raised to the rafters.

It came at my team's expense but I'm glad you get to see that moment, Howard. These Celtics are crazy good.
