Today, both Marco Bellinelli and John Wall announced that they have retired from basketball.

Hadn't heard Bellinelli's name in a while.  A long and solid career, both here and overseas.  Sounds like he went out a champ in Italy this past season.  Wall was awfully fun to watch before all of the injuries.  He gave the Celtics all they could handle that one 7 game series.

Feel bad Middleton has to end his career on that team.

It always cracks me up when a player that hasn't played a meaningful minute of basketball in like 4 years announces he is now retiring.

It's kinda' like when an employee gets fired and says, "You aren't firing me. I quit."

There should be a different term than retiring for this. Retiring is something you do gracefully when there is still a small amount of interest in you as a player. It's a graceful exit.

What John Wall and others do is much less ... elegant.

I always think of Keith Van Horn as the poster boy for guys whose contracts became more useful than their skill sets.
