Borg Cubes are also much smaller and less defended than star destroyers.

Look at RoTJ.

Both Fleets are firing at each other from "point blank range", and sustain massive amounts of damage before anything is destroyed, with exception being the superlaser cannon on the death star (which would easily destroy anything in Star Trek that it hit).

Those torpedos may be nice, but what are you going to do? Even if you manage to knock some ships out, the fleet will still remain for the most part in tact, and will be shooting at you.

It is my observation that the Star Trek crews don't have nearly as much all out war experience as Star Wars, especially regarding troop engagements. Most of the fighting is more or less squad based. In Star Wars, on the other hand, battles are usually fought on a grand scale, with thosands of ships vs thosands of ships, or hundreds of thosands of troops vs hundreds of thosands of troops.
