Agreed, though when it was planned out it was always done around the assumption that there would be a player draft, it was the draft that was being relied upon to spread the talent, until Hill challenged it in the supreme court, so now all there is to spread the talent is the cap.Then the Player's Association will complain about restriction of trade etc etc. Same reason they'll never agree to a draft. The salary cap was never introduced to spread the talent across the comp, it was purely brought in at the time to stop clubs spending themselves into oblivion and going broke.
