Marcus Camby doesn't want to be one of those guys hanging around in the NBA into his 40s if it means sitting at the end of the bench.

The Portland center, who turns 37 in March, is under contract through next season. But that could be it for him.

"I'll finish out my contract. I don't know (after that),'' Camby, making $8.45 million this season and $9.26 million in 2011-12, said in an interview with FanHouse about uncertainty beyond then. "It depends on how my body feels. It depends on the situation that I'm in. If I'm in the rotation, then I'm fine with that. I think I've got too much pride to be the 11th or 12th man.''...........

I'd play for as long as I could at a high level. Once I felt that I couldn't compete, I would bow out. Camby is a defender/shot blocker and rebounder. Those are things he could do for at least another two or three years.
