You WILL therefore get stuck with the luxury tax this year because you matched. Have a nice day."

Orlando Magic's owner is I believe is worth 2 and 1/2 times more than Mark Cuban, he didn't even care about going into the luxury tax and he told Otis Smith to do whatever would get the team a ring. Of course Bass and Gortat haven't been worth the money and we can take some pleasure in that. But the owner could care less about luxury taxes.
