Key Factors to Watch


One crucial aspect that could influence the outcome is how well the Cavaliers manage to execute their game plan against the Spurs' defense. Given their recent form, including effective ball distribution leading to high assist numbers and minimizing turnovers, they stand in good stead. However, adapting these strategies against a team like San Antonio requires precision.


Another factor is how both teams capitalize on fast break opportunities. The Cavaliers have shown proficiency in converting fast breaks into scoring chances but will need to maintain this efficiency against a Spurs team known for its tactical adjustments during games.
