As others have said many times in this thread, something just feels "off". To me it seems like the players are getting reset to the beginning of the year and that their season performances are forgotten. This might explain how great teams suddenly come up flat while lesser teams come up huge time and time again.

So in other words, precisely like real life. I've seen guys over a 10 year period who have come up huge year after year, while other guys come up completely lame. Or have one bad post-season that causes my team not to win. I think it's perfect the way it is, because there is no correlation between regular season performance and playoff clutch'ness'.
