I’ve gone through a million key things to watch for in this series but don’t have time to film more videos so I’ll type a few out here:
De’Aaron Fox. Because I could see Castle/Harper struggle a bit more than other matchups, Fox might have to be the go to guard for SA in the finals. Shamet might be the best Fox defender but who knows how much he’ll play (maybe more than Hart if he’s a spacing issue). I just envision some huge Fox moments in MSG or something
OG Anunoby will have some big size mismatches offensively. If he stays in rhythm and isn’t too tired from guarding Wemby, will have some big games.
Then the obvious role player takeovers that win these types of series. Which one of Vassell, Keldon, Champagnie, Bryant, Mitch Rob, Shamet, Mcbride, Jordan Clarksons are going to take over a quarter and win a game? Because that could easily end up being the decider.
This is an elite and EVEN matchup. I’m just shocked that San Antonio is a heavy favorite
