Why on earth does he play even a minute of non-garbage time? He's a 38 year old PG that doesn't pass OR play D! Every time he comes in, I cringe. If I see him throw up one more bad turnaround J, I am going to scream. Actually, I already have been screaming.
Yes nearly all of us dislike him here. According to patspride he is a "dogsh!t player". He's awful. And I am near to pulling my hair out whenever I see him take a shot.

He did make a few shots in game 1, but even those weren't good shots. He should be looking to pass first. PG is the worst position to have a ball hog. It's like if Kevin McHale was playing the 1.
I think Doc is pulling up lame on this situation in this series. Eddie House's ball handling was exposed in the Detroit and cleveland series, both teams went right to the trap when he was in. I'm not sure the Lakers can pull off the same traps because that ties Kobe up too much in terms of minutes played. Eddie House should get a chance to come in the game over Cassell now ... more offense which should give Pierce a few more minutes of rest instead of playing 40 minutes.
Sam I Am is what he is. You know in the first 2 minutes he's on the court, whether or not you need to yank him. He was important in Game 1 against the Lakers, and yankable in Game 2. I think you'll see some Eddie House in LA.
