Gotcha. But why should the players be concerned about a floor cap when the owners and players individually negotiate salary. Having a floor cap simply means the owners have to atleast spend that amount before they can use the rest for whatever they want. In other words no owner can have is % of monies to players below 50% or the rumored 59%. So my next question is what teams are sitting on the bubble of the 50% because if I'm not mistaken most teams are either close to the roof cap or just below it. which tells me there really is not an issue with teams not paying players. and if there was then I would presume the player can either take the offer extended to him by the team or go to another team or sit out because he doesn't think he's getting enough for his skills. Kinda like if your selling your house. You can be given 10 different offers but it it's not what you want you can take your house off the market.
