    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">ESPN.com - Guard Eddie House opted out of the remaining year of his contract Friday night in order to test the free agent market.

    House's agent, Mark Bartelstein, said though that his client was still interested in staying with Phoenix.

    "We're going to see what's out there," Bartelstein told The Associated Press, "but we're going to stay in close contact with the Suns and Mike D'Antoni."</div>

    totally agree. He's to good of a palyer for a low veteran contract. Man after letting Brian Grant's contract go, Suins migth be able to resign both. lol

    He proved nothing, he shot worse than he did as a King, and scored a few more points because he took more shots. Everyone already knew he could catch fire and is not scared to take big shots, he's always been like that, but I'm not sure what he expects to find on the market for himself.

    I don't think Eddie House would be very effective anywhere else other than Pheonix. I mean, what other team would let him come off the bench and fire off 20 shots in 5 minutes?

    I say he just resigns with the Suns if he knows what's good for him. But maybe the lack of playing time in the playoffs made him think the way he is thinking right now.

    Yeah i think hes a good fit for Suns, and he's probably just hoping a raise in his contravt and return to the Suns.

    He can get hot and be a spark off the bench for some teams, but as he proved in Phoenix this season, he can fall off just as quick.

    House needs to play for a contender; someone who is looking for instant offense off the bench but whose defensive schemes can hide his defensive inabilities.
