There is no way you can treat a one and done game (without seeing the future and 100% knowing the outcome already) that much differently than giving it all your attention, serious focus, and maintaining as much consistency in how you approach it compared to other important games during the season.

It’s good in theory and for fans and media to talk about, but it’s a very risky move. You’ve got the pieces to take care of business, so you focus on taking care of business THEN figuring out how to approach the next series.
