The once beloved sparkplug of the Boston Celtics bench unit, veteran guard Eddie House has found himself a new home. And much to the dismay of some Bostonians, he'll be putting on the black and red jersey of the Miami Heat. House signed a 1-year, $2.8 million deal with the Heat today, becoming yet another solid complimentary piece to their Gargantuan-Three on South Beach.
Obviously I don't hold anything against Eddie for signing with Miami. The Celtics shipped him away to a non-contender. He wants another ring. So he's going for his best shot. The painful part is just that now a player I once loved is on a team I cannot help but hate. Which, in turn, will mean that I no longer am an Eddie House fan. You were a perfect role player, though. And I expect you will be with Miami. House just has that winning attitude about him. Hopefully the losing LeBron mojo will override the winning mojo of other players.
I guess it would be silly of me to say with absolute certainty that LeBron will never win a ring and that the Heat still will never win the title. They're damn good. But what I can say with absolute certainty is that LeBron's rant at the Miami Heat rally was outrageous. For those of you who missed it, he essentially guaranteed 8 championships in Miami. Easy, bro. Never gonna happen. Don't put 600 lbs on the bar if you can only press 200 of it.
Once again... how do they keep signing ppl for more than the minimum... all the talk during the decision was that they'll only be able sign ppl for the league minimum which is like 500k... yet they've signed miller, illgalskis(sp.), haslem, house, james jones, juan howard, jamaal maglore... i dont get it
