The 12th-year swingman (7.0 ppg, 34.3 FG% through 23 games) with a $19,030,999 salary leads the list of players still being paid big dollars by their former teams (the Suns' Jalen Rose also figures prominently here after the Knicks bought him out for $14.6 million in October). The Mavs used the one-time amnesty provision to waive Finley in August 2005, escaping any luxury-tax penalty for his salary while still being responsible for the money on his Dallas contract ($16,141,999 this season and $18,593,750 next season). Other amnesty cuts include the Lakers' Aaron McKie (owed $5,570,874 by Philadelphia), Washington's Calvin Booth ($6,629,891 by Milwaukee) and Charlotte's Derek Anderson ($9,742,500 by Portland).
