Oh definitely far more to it than the simple numbers i posted, no doubt.
I think the biggest takeaway was the centralized revenue sharing, 50/50 split players/owners ans rising floor and cap as revenues grow which are objectively good ideas even if the numbers they put out there fir the cao and floor are a bit ... off.
Thing is, the owners will say these things are only on the table with a hard cap and floor, which the PA will fight against with everything they have.
I remember back to the days when the NHL was going through this exact thing, losing shitloads of games and money and thinking " come on, everyone knows youre going to end up with a cap and floor, the solit will be 50/50 and the numbers will change as the money pot grows... just get it done already"... but no, both sides had to try and nickel and dime the others for optics.
It's really tiresome to know exactly where it has to end up eventually, but have to watch the trainwreck first
