Neither of these teams looked like legitimate Playoff contenders earlier in the season. Both got off to very mediocre starts to the season and looked like they would underachieve this year.

This match up is a difficult one to call, and throughout the regular season after the teams played each other four times, things were split evenly at two games a piece.
