The narrative of revenge is fueling the Wolves, while the Spurs have motivation from their regular-season dominance over the Thunder. The potential matchup between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Victor Wembanyama has fans and analysts buzzing. In a matchup analysis, the Spurs edge out in seven of ten categories, including a deeper bench and top-ranked defense. The Wolves have advantages in experience and coaching.
