"Van Gundy recalled something he once heard from Daryl Morey, the Rockets’ general manager who thought he was getting Pau Gasol from the Lakers in the killed three-team trade. “He said every organization needs a vice president of common sense, and right now that’s exactly what the NBA needs. A vice president of common sense who looks at some of these decisions and says, `You know what, we’re better than this. We’re all making a ton of money anyway. If it’s a little less than a ton, that’s OK. But let’s make sure when we come back, we got the right product,’” Van Gundy said. “I mean, the lockout didn’t even help these teams. It wasn’t anything about competitive balance."
