The first half of Saturday's Nets game at the Garden was all offense, no defense. Both teams defended worse the league's worst D in those first two quarters, allowing both teams to score at rates equivalent to top-3 offenses.
The 2nd half was the exact opposite. No one could score much on either side (except Lopez) with both teams' offenses performing worse than the NBA's worst offense in quarters 3 and 4.
Meanwhile, the refs practiced random, often irrational officiating, adding to the woeful theme of the night — incompetence and frustration.
