<p dir="auto">**As it turns out, the Browns aren’t the Cleveland-based sports team having the most warped obsession with analytics.</p>
<p dir="auto">Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson, whose team trails the Knicks 3-0 in the NBA’s Eastern Conference Finals, came up with an all-time glass-half-full justification for the Cavs’ struggles.</p>
<p dir="auto">Via Matt Clapp of Awful Announcing, Atkinson claimed — with a straight face — that Cleveland is essentially winning.</p>
<p dir="auto">“Analytically . . . we’re two out of three in the expected [score]. . . . We’ve won two out of the three,” Atkinson said.</p>
<p dir="auto">The remark immediately flopped worse than SGA.</p>
<p dir="auto">“I know you’re looking confused,” Atkinson said. “But if you believe in process and all that. . . . take that layer. . . .</p>
<p dir="auto">“I think last night, it was, the expected score was like one point or two. Us shooting way below expected, them shooting way over. I know no one wants to hear that. I think you guys like hearing it. The general public . . . everyone’s outcome-based. Sure. I get that too.”</p>
<p dir="auto">Yes, the general public is outcome-based. Because winning and losing is based on the outcome.**</p>
