Anyone who tries to tell you they don't feel the pressure in the playoffs is lying to you. There's no bigger stage in the sport than the playoffs, with everything you've been working for all season on the line, and a short string of bad games and mean the end of an otherwise great season. For those on strong teams with title expectations, it can be especially hard, when the league expects you to win and every opponent a hungry underdog looking to be the one to knock you down on the road to glory. That said, the best strategy come playoff time, for favorites and underdogs alike, is to enjoy the journey and focus on the people, not the players. This league is an amazing community full of amazing human beings, and their time, support, friendly rivalry and general banter are the reason we all keep coming back, not a trophy or a fun banner on the side of a website. Celebrate or commiserate with good friends and don't take it too seriously, and you'll have the time of your life.
