No Defense
Against Second Lowest Scoring Team in League
NETS 250
CAVS 272
Two of the more disturbing losses of the season ...
Two games against the second-worst offensive team in the league and the Nets, the third highest-scoring team in the league, lose both getting outscored by a gross 250-272 margin. Playing without Kevin Durant, the Nets were badly outrebounded 29-50 on Friday, while Cleveland nearly doubled them up at the free-throw line. James Harden, starting at power forward for the first time in his career, scored 19 points with a game-high eleven assists in 37 minutes. Kyrie Irving scored a game-high 38 points with only five assists in 31 minutes. Coach Nash extended the bench to six, with Jeff Green and Timothe-Luwawu Cabarrot playing 26 minutes respectively. Back in the starting lineup, Joe Harris was limited by Cleveland (and Kyrie's lack of distribution) to just eight points on 3/9 from the floor.
