The most extraordinary NBA career may be coming to an end.

Forget Michael and Magic and Wilt and Oscar and Kobe and LeBron. Sure, they have been some of the greatest players in the history of professional basketball. But they had incredible physical skills, amazing quickness and jumping ability, lithe and sinewy physiques capable of amazing movements. Though few truly heard the acclaim of fans during games quite like Brian Scalabrine.

And if Scal’s going out, it’s with a chant and not a murmur.

“I’d be discouraged if I just quit,” said Scalabrine, who remains without an NBA team after being told by the Bulls he will not be invited to return. “Everyone keeps telling me it’s not quitting (taking an already offered TV job). But I want someone to tell me, ‘We don’t want you.’ I’ve always been a tough cut to make. I want someone to tell me I’m not good enough. I just want to see what happens.”
