Through their first 24 games, the Nets have only been able to average 95.9 points per game against their opponents. Center Brook Lopez has a team-high 17.6 PER right now by averaging 16.2 points and 6.2 rebounds per game.

On Wednesday night, the Cavs played one of their worst all-around games when the Atlanta Hawks were able to blow them out 127-98 in Cleveland. Their poor defense was the main culprit in that loss, allowing the Hawks to make 64.5 percent of their shots.

The Cavs are currently one of the better scoring teams in the NBA, but they are in the bottom half of the league in rebounding. Power forward Kevin Love is having a solid first year in Cleveland by averaging 17.6 points and a team-best 10.5 rebounds per game while only turning the ball over 1.8 times per game.
