WEST PLAYOFF RACE VS. MUTOMBO'S FINGER Welcome to the Final Four of our completely pointless, albeit oddly entertaining, BDL Bedlam Tournament. Thanks to your help, we compiled a list of 64 things that you may or may not love about the NBA, seeded them and created a Madness-like bracket. Today we'll post both semifinal match-ups for you to decide on. Voting is open until Sunday at midnight, Eastern time. Let's waste no time and get right to it. Our first Final Four match-up of the day pits No. 1 seed West playoff race vs. No. 6 seed Dikembe Mutombo's finger wag. A quick look at the semifinal competitors: No. 1 WEST PLAYOFF RACE: With less than two weeks to go, the difference between the Western Conference leading Hornets and the No. 9 Warriors is just 7.5 games. The West race is so tight that we might see the first team in NBA history to win 50 games and still miss the playoffs. That's cold. 'Cold As Ice.' ROAD TO THE BEDLAM FINAL FOUR: The top-seeded West Race beat No. 16 Herrmann's freaky hands; No. 8 Miami Heat dance team; No. 13 'Where Amazing Happens' commercials and No. 6 YouTube Bosh. ----------- No. 6 DIKEMBE MUTOMBO'S FINGER WAG: "There is one such gesture that has become bigger than sports itself, one single movement that strikes fear into opponents, joy into the hearts of fans, and lust into the loins of those who put highlight packages together. This elementary but genius taunt has been adopted by people of all sport, profession, gender, age, and race. This transcendent move is none other than the Finger Wag made famous by one Dikembe Mutombo." -- The History of the Finger Wag ROAD TO THE BEDLAM FINAL FOUR: The sixth-seeded Finger Wag beat No. 11 Nowitzki's fade away jumper; No. 3 Oden's GO-hawk; No. 2 Rockets' winning streak and No. 16 'NBA super fan' Drew.

"West playoff race had such a difficult road to the Final Four, I don't think they'll have anything left in the tank for Mutombo's finger wag. Or at least I hope they won't." lol.
Looks like it's gonna be Deke against Baron's beard. I can't see Deke losing this unless all those Calis just stomp for their homeboy. Da fingerwag is an all-time classic. And just think, HE JUST GOT T'D UP FOR IT AGAIN LAST WEEK!!!! STUPID, STUPID REFEREES.

Dude that isn't even fair. A hot chick against Dikembe's finger wag? Finger wag all the way baby, and twice on Sundays.
Deke is behind clutchfans. Let's show them what we're made of (don't forget to fight off the urge to vote for the chick).
