Life Story: Eddie House is a mysterious figure with a murky past. The past remains murky because I don't want to waste an extra five minutes researching it. From what I can tell, he grew up in Berkely and was such an academic powerhouse that he chose to go to Arizona State. While at Arizona State, he trademarked his "shoot every f#$%& time I touch the ball" strategy. He continued to perfect this style in the NBA, reaching his pinnacle with the Phoenix Suns. He has bounced around the league, and somewhere along the line he married Mike "Bat Boy" Bibby's sister. I'm sure she's pretty hot...

With the Celtics: Danny Ainge signed him with the intention of making him the backup point guard. Odd, considering that House attempts more outrageous and unnecessary shots than ANYONE in the league, including longtime Ainge nemesis Antoine Walker. It was a strange move. It was something like recruiting Eric Musselman to be your designated driver or Ruben Patterson to be your babysitter.

Obligatory Youtube Clip: There aren't a lot of Eddie House highlight reels to choose from, but there are a hell of a lot more than Brandon Wallace. Here's one with an irritating rap song (shocker) blaring in the background.


Season Prediction: I will remember every crappy shot Eddie House takes all season and conveniently forget anything good he does. Then I will get in a big argument with Nic, who will insist that Eddie House is the most underrated player in league history.Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2007/10/player-preview-eddie-house.html
