Not saying they won't do it but it's not like every player in the league has this kind of structure.
Alright, that makes sense to a degree I guess, it just seems to me that if the player wants more 'lockout-protected' money then that has to have value to them, similar to NTC/NMCs, so that should help the team then bring down the AAV.

Give and take. They get lockout protected money, but they have to take less of it or give up something else.
