Offense is more important to winning games.
If the 2 best defenses ever assembled played each other and held each other to 0-0 the entire game and someone makes a lucky basket to win it 2-0. Offense win the game.
The deciding factor of who wins a game is who scores more points. That is an offensive metric.
You need defense, absolutely, because it is a very important tool in order to outscore your opponent.

Sorry, but this post is bad logic. Basketball is a zero sum game. The ability to score points = the ability to deny points.

And just to poke some fun at your extreme example, you can generate points through defense by drawing charges. If a game outcome is determined 99.9% by defense and 0.1% by offense, are you really going to claim offense is the deciding factor and not defense?
