Kenny Atkinson is taking looking on the bright side to another level.   The Cavaliers’ head coach tried to put a positive spin on their current 3-0 deficit to the Knicks in the Eastern Conference finals by claiming that Cleveland had actually been playing on par with New York, according to the analytics.   At one point, Atkinson event went as far as to say that the Cavaliers would’ve won two of the first three games based on the expected score.
