Exactly.
You've got a 5-10 year career - 15 if you're a star, but few get that - and you're a professional athlete who has been the best player on every team they have ever been on.
You're here to play, and you're here to be a part of a winning team.
No effing way, do they, or do the VAST majority of them, at least, ever quietly agree to sitting out for weeks, just because the team screwed up with the cap.
It's easy for fans to look at a screwed up situation and yell conspiracy, but it's another to assume these players are going to be complicit to it.
