Then you should override and use service.

The service method calls doGet or doPost depending on request method. Of course you can handle everything in service. With doGet and doPost you can avoid checking request method. But why to do that? My opinion is it is better for security reasons that accept a request only in post or get, not both. For example don't accept login information via GET because sending sensitive parameters in the URL is not secure.
