House averaged 5.8 points per game with the Kings last season. </div> This looks like a good signing for Phoenix he's quick and can hit the three which fits into the Sun's system.
Ooh, this is sick. Phoenix added anoter scorer. House is a great spark off the bench and should provide defensive problems for opposing teams. If he backs up Nash, that'd be crazy, having 2 pgs rotating and they're a threat to drop treys at any time.
This is horrible for the Heat!!! Now we cant get Eddie House!!!!! but for the Suns this is a really and I mean really good addition this guy is a catch and shoot type player and plays with energy. He is a great player to have on your squad and the Suns just got better now that they signed him.
Good signing by the Suns but this kind of sucks for Barbosa. After having a good summer league he is going to have alot of trouble finding minutes at the 1/2 amongst Nash, Bell, J. Jackson, and House.
Great signing by Phoenix, but horrible for Miami. I guess we'll have to take a look at Jay Williams now, he would be the best option for us.
I think this is a great signing, there working there way back to fill that void that Q and JJ left with there shooting touches. House, Bell, and JJ are all good shooters in my eyes and they should be able to give the suns what they lost if not more.

I also don't think the Suns want Nash playing as many minutes per game in the regular season either.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Houston:</div><div class="quote_post">the suns signed steve smith? dont remember that one...</div> bah I confuse Steve Smith and Eddie House, I've done it before. I think its because they are mere role players that I used to pick up a lot in Fantasy BBall. I'll edit my last post. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Houston:</div><div class="quote_post">anyway, I think House does address their need of a capable backup guard...hes capable of scoring in bunches and fits into their running style perfectly...however, I hope I never see the Suns pair him alongside Nash in the backcourt cuz that would be the worst defensive backcourt ever assembled in league history j/k suns fans (not really)</div> I think he will be a sort of scoring replacement for Nash, when Nash needs a rest. When Nash is on the court I don't think they more scoring ability, they will probably play Bell. Who is a good defensive player and a good spot up shooter.
Jim Jackson is our starting SG, and Bell is his back-up. House will compete with Barbosa for the back-up PG spot. House was never a star in the NBA, but was awesome at ASU. I am happy to have such a great ASU alum on my team even if he will just be on the bench.
They're hoping Diaw will be competing with Barbosa for the backup point spot. House is likely an insurance policy against injury or someone to bring in during scoring lulls when the second unit isn't producing. At least that's my take on it.
