What midpoint? Between the cap and the floor? What's special about the midpoint, why should the owners be not exceeding it? EDIT: Invoking the escalator moves the midpoint as well, and staying at the midpoint would require paying players less salaries, which you said you aren't suggesting.
Since HRR aren't known until after the season, there has to be some kind of adjustment mechanism, be it escrow or just players doing what the league does; just pay out the imbalance out of pocket when the final numbers are known.
