I used to be a believer in the conventional wisdom that the performance of team's in the second half of the season had strong predictive value. Now I have doubts.
Have there been any studies on the predictive value of team performance going into the PS?
Does team momentum going into the PS matter?

Thanks for the response. The reason I asked is that I used to consider momentum to be a big factor but as I thought about recent example over the years I found so many counter examples such as 2010.
