Rumors

Kendrick Perkins: “Was I the only 2008 member missing from the duck boat? No, I wasn’t. (Eddie) House, my guy, he was there. Leon Powe, great friend of mine as well, he was there. Scal was there and Paul (Pierce) was there. There was still 11 other guys missing. And to be honest with you, if I would’ve gotten an invite, which I didn’t — I didn’t know we was supposed to — but anyways, nine times out of 10, I would’ve turned it down. … That’s not our moment. That’s 2024′s moment. Let those guys have their moment.”

Recently, coach Doc Rivers has turned to Harrell. There was a stretch where Reed was getting the look behind Embiid, but Rivers made the switch to Harrell in the win over the Charlotte Hornets in the second of a 7-game homestand. With that being said, one has to wonder if Rivers would like to have a permanent option to turn to every night to nail down a consistent rotation. “Yeah, but that may not happen and I’m fine with that,” Rivers said on Sunday at practice. “There’s a lot of teams that go through that. We won a title doing that one year. We literally did. Big Baby (Glen Davis) or Leon Powe. Tony Allen or Eddie House. They didn’t play every night, but I thought to our team, it was very healthy because it was a competition.”

Dan Savage: Paolo Banchero said Eddie House’s comments made the team’s group chat, and while it’s never great to hear someone talk about your team that way, they’re not really concerned about what others think and just focused on getting better day by day.

Eddie House: It’s different when you’re a coach. If you cannot get the superstar guy to buy into what you are doing, it is almost a failed cause. On every single team I’ve played on, even the team I played on with LeBron James, they were this close, they wanted Spo (Erik Spoelstra) out, but Pat Riley was like, ‘Hell, no! That’s my guy, and we gonna win with him.’ It took another leader to say, ‘No, this is how it goes.’ That’s Pat Riley I’m talking about.

Former NBA player Eddie House, on "The Odd Couple" podcast, noted that superstars asking for the head coach’s head isn’t uncommon. He likened the Brooklyn Nets’ situation to the time LeBron James asked the Miami Heat to fire head coach Erik Spoelstra: “It’s different when you’re a coach. If you cannot get the superstar guy to buy into what you are doing, it is almost a failed cause.“On every single team I’ve played on, even the team I played on with Bron, they were this close, they wanted Spo [Spoelstra] out but Pat was like, ‘Hell, no! That’s my guy and we gonna win with him.’ It took another leader to say, ‘No, this is how it goes.’ That’s Pat Riley I’m talking about.”

Can you talk about this year’s group? Pete Mickeal: Yeah. So, this year group, we have some really, really good names. A guy named Royce Hamm Jr.; he went to UNLV. I think he’s going to surprise a lot of people in the way he plays. He’s a four, five, but he can put it on the floor. He can shoot and he is really explosive. We also have Jaylen House, which is the son of Eddie House, a player that played for Miami heat. He averaged 19 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists in college. Those are great stats in college. Also, Taze Moore that won NCAA slam dunk competition. We have JD Notae from Arkansas. Arkansas was a top five team in the nation, and he was arguably the best player. I mean, he averaged 19 points a game on a top five team in the nation. That’s very difficult to do. So, those are our bigger names. We have kids from Oregon, California, Ohio state Louisville, Kansas state, Florida, Houston, New Mexico.

For years, the conversation surrounding LeBron James dealt with comparing his talent to that of Michael Jordan. According to most, James has firmly entrenched himself as the second best NBA player of all-time behind Jordan. However, former guard Eddie House joined "Undisputed on Wednesday and accused James of quitting during the 2011 NBA Finals that the Miami Heat lost.
