S6 Luxury Tax List

Post by WigNosy »

WIG'S NOTE: I have not been able to locate the original tax rules (I think those predate the Proboards used by the PBSL and may go back to the Pelicans Report days); however, I will post here my understanding of luxury tax deadlines.

1. A team's "minimum tax" is locked in at the trade deadline (i.e., you can't cut minimum players before the 4 games of Sim #12 to reduce your tax bill).
2. If a team's salary increases after the trade deadline (e.g., you have to sign a player to get to 8 healthy players due to injury), your "minimum tax" is based on the new salary total.
3. The above two points mean a team's final tax bill is based on whatever the team's highest salary total is at any time after the trade deadline has passed.

Potential Repeaters (see viewtopic.php?t=15124)
Knicks (2 years)
Pacers (2 years)
Bulls (2 years)
Lakers (2 years)

Projected tax bills updated ahead of the trade deadline. I believe the trade deadline is the last opportunity to shed salary for luxury tax purposes (if not, the commissioner can correct me).

Minimum tax bills for Season 6 posted in first post. If these teams add salary (vet min signings) their tax bill could go up.
