The Spurs demonstrated their defensive prowess by maintaining control for most of the game and leading by as much as 20 points. Their bench contributed significantly with 47 points, highlighting depth that could be crucial against Phoenix.

Yet turnovers proved costly as they gave up possession seventeen times which translated into twenty points off turnovers for Orlando.

The key battle will likely be beyond the arc; if SAS can replicate or improve upon their three-point shooting from previous games while minimizing turnovers, they stand a good chance at outshining PHX.
