Certainly! Here is the translation of the article content into English: In discussing luxury taxes, we cannot simply look at the numbers alone. For example, last season the Golden State Warriors had the highest luxury tax at 172.8million,butatthesametime,theleague′ssalarycapforthe2023−24seasonwasashighas172.8 million, but at the same time, the league's salary cap for the 2023-24 season was as high as 172.8million,butatthesametime,theleague′ssalarycapforthe2023−24seasonwasashighas136 million. In contrast, the Portland Trail Blazers paid only $52 million in luxury tax in 2003, but back then the salary cap was only a few tens of millions. Therefore, we will take a look at the ratio of luxury tax to salary cap! Tenth place: The 2019 Warriors paid 51.5millioninluxurytax,accountingfor50.6TheWarriorsdidnotpayanytaxin2017,andtheirluxurytaxwas51.5 million in luxury tax, accounting for 50.6% of the salary cap!
