Britt and Eno discuss whether it matters if teams are hot or cold in the weeks leading up to the postseason, and they assess which current contenders might be on the outside looking in come playoff time. They also talk about some rookies whose productive seasons might be under-appreciated due to their being on non-playoff teams.
