WEST NBA PLAYOFFS...SQUEEZE the ORANGE...Dreaming of an Early CHRISTMAS for a Few Teams in the WEST...the ALAMO City Hoops Team, LOB City, and the GRIND HOUSE are all worthy but is goes through who else...the REGULATORS REPORT...OKC THUNDER of Thunder Alley...#HowtheWESTwasWon

Eleven Days until Santa Claus throws something down your Chimney or on your Bank Statement depending on whose reading this Post. What If the Western Conference in the Logo started their Playoffs Tonight who would it go through? Look as Sports Fans we all want out Teams to get a Chip  I mean look at Cubs Fans or Knicks Fans and even Clippers Nation whose Only Sign of Arrival back in the Day was Super Fan Billy Crystal and the Move to Staples Center. Like Erik B would say..."Its been a Long Time...since I left you" and for most Teams how can something Leave when you never had it to begin with. The West has something brewing that's Special and it might be in L.A. and not Purple and Gold or in Memphis with the Grind House Bunch.

The Story Lines in the NBA West....

"Respect the Beard" @JHarden13 gets traded from OKC to #REDnation Texas.....OKC is doing just fine by the way...

The Spurs doing what they always do as though they never get old...especially Duncan who played with the Iceman, Artis Gilmore, James Silas, the Admiral, Swen Nater and the Dallas Chapparals (ABA Team that turned into the ABA Spurs).

The Grindhouse on Beale Street has every ones Attention and Z-Bo, Lil Gasol, and Rudy are taking No Prisoners in the 2K13 Winning Time...

The Clips are officially the Team in LA to see when talking Pro and College Hoops as the Boys in Westwood..the UCLA Bruins have stunk the Joint up also...All-Hype the Bruins are

The New Warriors behind Run T.L.C....Thomspon, Lee, and Curry...you better put your Best Pair of Scooby Doos on when they come to your Town or when you visit theirs...Planet Oracle near the Black Hole in East Bay...sound menacing...it is.

How about the 10K Lake Boyz who get Ricky Rubio back on Saturday to go along with the Lake Oswego Monster...K-Love.

The Jazz and their New Back Court of Mo-Will and Foye Boy..Randy Foye to go with the Best Front Court Duo in the Logo no one talks about in Milsap and Big AL Jefferson.

The Rockets are hanging tough but have the Nuggets riding Shotgun and the Mavs getting @Swish41 Back that is DIRKiliscious 41....Mavs will be Hmm Hmm Good

the LAKEshow sitting as we go to Press in the #12 Spot out of 15 Teams and still heading South with no hope of going North before Christmas....Lead Man MDA do something until PG and Former Point God NASHty aka Mr. Drummond comes back.

NBA West Match Ups if Winning Time was now...

1 OKC Thunder Up
8 ROCKETS #REDnation

4 LOB City Clips
5 Run T.L.C. Warriors

3 GRIND HOUSE Memphis
6 10K LAKE Boyz T'Wolves

2 SPURS of Alamo City Texas
7 JAZZ of Salt Palace Fame

Based on what the Bluedude is observing from who advances.....

OKC wipes out Rockets and takes care of Biz...

Lob City and the New Warriors might be the Best 1st Round Match Up in either Conference...

Memphis is too tough for the T'Wolves but a Good Learning Experience for Wolves under Lead Man Rick Adelman...A Real Good One

Spurs would have a tougher time than one would think getting Past the Jazz but they would advance...

Oh if Santa or the Gap Band could Drop a Bomb and start the Playoffs right now it would be love in a Few Places...especially L.A. with no LAKEshow for a Playoff Go...Wowza!

Note: Nuggets, Mavs, Rip City Blazers, and LAKEshow are all within striking Distance and there will be a lot of Shifting in the Bottom for a Few Months....
