SQUEEZE the ORANGE Playbook with a Appetizer of LOGO WATCH #85.....the 2012 LOGO WEST Finals Preview....Team WE R ONE vs Team 4 CHIPS...the ALAMO City

This has the makings of being maybe even better than the 2012 Logo Finals. Before we talk its Spurs vs Thunder it is Spurs Management vs Spurs Management.

Current Thunder GM Sam Presti got his Wings from Spurs Lead Man Pops and Spurs Lead Post RC Buford. Now he has used the Spurs Blueprint in building Thunder Alley into the best Alley known to Mankind at least in the State of Oklahoma. Presti has hit big in the Draft in which Teams if they get 1 Superstar in 10 years and he is a Franchise Player that you can build around you have secured your services for at least 5 seasons.

Presti has hit Not One, Not Two, but Three Home Runs in getting Durant 66, Uncle Russ, and Big Game James 2.0...the South Paw Version via Thunder Picks in the Logo Draft. Reminds you of what the Spurs did in building their Core through the Draft in Duncan, TP9, and Manu. Oh to work for the Spurs or the Thunder the BLUEDUDE would fit right in....Real Talk.

Now all this brings us to the Match Up between the Thunder and the Spurs. Game 1 is Tonight May 27, 2012 in the Alamo City. The Spurs if they are favored it won't be by many as the Thunder have equally a chance to get out of this and into the Right to Larry O'Brien to your City for at least 10 Months or until the 2012-13 Winning Time commences.

Squeeze the Orange PLAYBOOK sponsored by....What ever Team comes out the East if your not Scared you Should be. The Spurs and Thunder are Top Shelf and in a Glass Case:

THUNDER....what they need to do to Win Series

They have to first of all find some kind of Inside Presence or attack the Rim on the Spurs. If the Thunder do not get out in Transition they will not have a shot. Not to say they need to be out there 24/7/365.....but the more they are in Half Court Sets...the less their Chances are at winning the Series.

Also the Thunder have Big Game James 2.0 James Harden off their Bench so look for the Spurs 2nd unit try to take him away and let one of the Other Thunder Players beat you like Collison or Cook. That will be a tough task though because everyone in Texas will know Harden is attacking going left.....but no one seems to be able to Stop him. Like they could Stop Big Game James in the Great Western Forum Right Hand....No.

Westbrook and Durant have to not settle for Jump Shots and stay aggressive and in Attack Mode. Turnovers, Rebounding Margin, Money Balls, and the most important Stat will be this series...Hustle Plays.

SPURS....what they need to do to Win Series

They must keep their Shooters spaced all over the Floor and TP9 will have his work cut out trying to take uncle Russ off the dribble all night long. The Spurs will run some Pick and Rolls everywhere on the Floor to free TP9 up so he can get into the lane.

Dunc will have his A-Game rolling and it is up to Perk, Ibaka, and Collison (you may even see Naz Muhammad every Blue Moon) to make Tim work on both ends of the Floor.

The Spurs also will pick their Spots getting out in transition with their 2nd Unit or the One-Man Fastbreak....TP9. Manu, Green, Kawhi, Captain Jack 1, and Neal all like to get out in Transition.

The Spurs Bench or 2nd Unit will also have to play Big as they have a distinct advantage over the Thunder with Manu, Captain Jack, Gary Neal, Tiaggo Splitter, DeJuan Blair, and Boris Diaw. The Thunder though have a nice Bench with the addition of D-Fish, with Harden, Collison, and Cook.

Manu Ginobli is arguably the Spurs best player and he comes off the Bench and it isn't who starts the game but who finishes. He will be  tough match for the Thunder all series long.

Match Ups to look for:

TP9 vs Uncle Russ...Two 2nd Team All Logo Guards

Durant 66 vs Kawhi, Captain Jack, and Danny G.

Duncan vs Perk, Collison, and Ibaka maybe even Nas Muhammad

Manu vs Harden, Uncle Russ, Thabo

Big Game James 2.0 Harden vs Danny G., Kawhi, and Neal

Uncle Russ vs Danny G., Kawhi, and Neal

Kawhi vs Big Game James 2.0 Harden

Winner: A Pick'em...this Series is as equal as it gets and like I have said before in the Logo. You know what the other Team is going to do...can you Stop it.

The Logo is a game of Chess, Checkers, and Runs...can you out think your opponent and turn their Water off when they are on a Run. If you need to call your Local Water Department to Stop any type of Run....its too late.

The LOGO so SIMPLE it's DIFFICULT.......the 2012 Logo West Finals are here
