If they want more cash in their pockets, then the league needs to start generating more cash.

Which is why the escalator should be one of the things that go. I'm not saying they collectively should get more then the 50% they agreed to, I'm saying the league should take more care to ensure their members (AKA The Owners) aren't doling out more then that 50% initially so that the players can get what they individually negotiated for themselves with less clawback.
