Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3732530, member: 652"] The luxury tax penalties from the last CBA have basically created a salary cap. Going over 2 years in a row doesn’t kill you but more than that does. The penalties for going over now make it necessary you can’t stand over the luxury tax like the old days. The penalties weren’t punitive enough to make teams have to get under. The penalties are rough. Now if in the next CBA the players get the penalties lowered which is doubtful then going over the tax line may become done every season by the big market teams. Right now though it’s bad business.
