EDDIE BACK IN CELTICS’ HOUSE?

The sharpshooter, who brought instant offense off the bench in the Boston Celtics championship run in 2008, maybe back in Beantown. Yes, Eddie House could be a Celtic again next season. According to Boston.com, talks are now going on between Celtics’ President Danny Ainge and Mark Bartelstein, agent of House, in a bid to further bolster the second unit of the Celtics. The  6-1 former Arizona State hotshot was traded by the Celtics last February to the New York Knicks for another bench spark plug in Nate Robinson. House is a 10-year NBA veteran with a career scoring average of 7.6 ppg and shoots .390 of his 3-point FG attempts. Additionally, House is a deadshot from the FT line with a lifetime shooting percentage of .841 including an impressive .1000 clip (12-out-of-12) in 18 games with the Knicks last season. House, 32, is also a well-traveled player in the league with stops in Miami Heat, LA Clippers, Charlotte Bobcats, Milwaukee Bucks, Sacramento Kings, Phoenix Suns, New Jersey Nets, Celtics and Knicks.

 “It’s something [Celtics president] Danny [Ainge] and I have discussed. But nothing’s imminent.”
