NBA Pickem Week 18: Magic Time: Another packed week of NBA on the tube. Games to pick begin Thursday night with a doubleheader on Prime, starting with the Houston Rockets at the resurgent Orlando Magic. Desmond Bane is playing like a league MVP lately. We all had pretty good weeks, though a blown lock on Nuggets over Warriors prevented Ufez from winning the week. Make your picks.

I still don't get how the mostly healthy Nuggets lost to Golden State's C-Team, but so it goes.
