When you think about it though, it seems to have the exact opposite effect. Who are the few teams that are going to be undeterred by the luxury tax? The ones with the most money, of course. Which teams are going to be scared off by the tax? The ones that can't afford to pay it, obviously.

Owners should be encouraged to spend lavishly on their teams, not discouraged. The league should not be punishing owners for putting winning above their other business priorities. The absolute worst thing an owner can be is a cheapskate.
Exactly, winning should be awarded, you get to the conference finals, you should have all taxes rescinded. You get to the playoffs, taxes go down 50%.
