do you really think thats true? no salary cap means no salary floor. While no salary cap might help a small handful of elite players, the vast majority of players would seem to be "screwed" by the lack of a salary floor.

in the end, the point may be moot. PFT's reported that talks are picking up and subcommittee's have been formed. I think there's a very good chance the CBA will actually be extended before it expires.

Well look at baseball, do you see their players association asking for a salary cap to prevent teams like the Royals and Marlins from paying out only like 30 million in payroll expenses?

They don't do that because on the whole, the absence of a cap has driven player salaries up at a faster rate than would have otherwise been the case.
