A team with so much dead weight that they used the Allan Hositon Rule to waive someone other than Allan Houston

Now, I don't think there's anyone on the team I wouldn't be at least a little sad to see go

ah, I see now that it wasn't formally public. The league did not allow the list of unprotected players to be disclosed ... but it sure was! www.nytimes.com/2004/06/12/sports/pro-basketball-expansion-bobcats-receive-list-of-players-available-to-them.html

love how the Kings were so damn deep that the one guy they didn’t need at all (Gerald Wallace) became one of the best players to wear a Bobcats uniform

Meanwhile, Kevin Durant perpetually putting himself on the unprotected list every year. “I’m available.”

N.B. If you only look at first 2 columns of his basketball reference (18 seasons, 6 teams, 1 year DNP) you think competent journeyman, not first ballot HOFer.
