Accident Waiting To Happen of the Week: Eddie House’s son.
We talked about this a little bit on this week’s podcast, but has anyone seen Eddie House’s son on the sidelines during the last couple Celtics’ home games? The kid is all over the place! He slaps all the starters five during the pre-game introductions, he’s up jumping around with Tony Allen on the bench after a big dunk, hell, he’s basically in the huddle during time outs. I love that the kid is getting to enjoy that kind of access to the team and bond a little with his Dad, but the whole scene is bad news for at least two reasons:
1. There’s no way Eddie can completely concentrate on the game when his son is bouncing around—like Mike Myers in the old SNL skit where he’s tethered to the jungle gym—the entire time. Now its one thing if this were the Atlanta series and Eddie never saw the floor, but now that he’s our back up point guard, a guy who’s going to be relied on to deliver 10-12 solid minutes every game, I don’t want his kid on the bench. He can pretend it doesn’t take away from his focus but that’s impossible. If I were an NBA player, I’d be distracted by any little kid playing around by the bench; if it was my son, I’d instinctively have an eye on him all game. How do you just shut that off?
