I think there is alot of luck involved in the playoffs. I mean would anyone seriously argue that Minnesota was the best team in baseball in 1987 or Florida in 1997? Getting hot at the right time does help alot. I would stop way short of saying "the Braves have been the best team in Baseball over the last 11 years" but they have been one of the best in each of those seasons. If you were somehow able to play the playoffs over those 11 years over a hundred times I think the Braves would win their fair share. In any case their streak is very impressive
