Apparently a bunch of teams are upset at the Miami Heat over the antics they pulled to get under the luxury tax penalty.

Involved fooling everyone about wanting to go under the tax penalty but finding a loophole to get both Joe Johnson and a tax payout check from the league. Majority of the anger is at the Heat getting another player to waive most of his salary without getting nothing back in return.

Because of those antics, Heat guaranteed themselves a $2.6 million luxury check in the offseason and everyone else who followed the tax rules get lower checks as a result.
