NEW YORK — Jeff Van Gundy's insincerity, his most important product, was on full display Friday throughout ESPN's coverage of the Lakers' victory over the Knicks.

His two most fat-fried lies:

In Van Gundy's zeal to sanctify every active or inactive coach (they're eligible whether or not they're breathing), he impudently corrected play-by-play man Mike Breen; said he was wrong, Nate Robinson was not in Mike D'Antoni's doghouse when he became a DNP-coach's decision for 14 straight games.
