So that will afect any posible trade scenarios and it will be the same 2 keep LA than 2 cut him because no team will absorb his cap hit with all the problems they will face and there is no way your team will eat 12mill of dead money just 2 get rid of him

The numbers become entirely different if you assume that the CBA does not get extended, it's not a matter of taking that little variable into account and having things change slightly. Whether the CBA gets extended or not changes the entire landscape of the team's salary cap, it's either the CBA gets extended and we have about $16 million in cap room, or the CBA doesn't get extended and we're releasing players left and right (and many other teams are doing the same). And the main reason why I'd put my money on an extension getting signed is just as FRPLG indicated, a lot of teams would be in a lot of trouble if the agreement didn't get signed. They are motivated to get the CBA extended, because they made the same assumption I did, they built their salary structures with the assumption in mind that the CBA would be extended.
I think it's unreasonable to assume that the CBA is going to come to an end and that salary caps as we know them are done in the NFL.
