NBA Pickem Week 17: This is Painful for Me: The schedule is packed this week with 11 NBA games on our televisions, beginning tonight with Cavs/Magic early and (sigh) Mavs/Lakers late. Howard_T wins the week. Ufez leads. I picked Warriors over Mavs by 30 and got close enough for extra points. Yet I still feel dead inside. Make your selections.

Every time I see a clip of Dumont or Nico, I have a visceral reaction, and I'm not even a Mavs fan.

I haven't felt like this since I went to Steve Nash's first game back in Dallas after Cuban let him walk off to Phoenix. I didn't like it in 2004 and I don't like it now.
