I believe the salary cap number is calculated by taking the player cut (I blieve it is 68%) of the total shared revenue and then dividing it by 32. The above number (speculating) assumes local revenue will not be shared among owners (and consequently players) under the current CBA, meaning no new CBA agreement has been reached and the salary cap will go away.

*** A lot of speculation on my part here, not having a link or additional information.

Huh? The cap for the 2006 season was defined under the current CBA. Any progress on a CBA extension has nothing to do with this.

I stand corrected for a second time in one thread.
