Ongoing CBA discussions

Just thinking out loud here...

If the owners think that the players have too good a deal, would the owners be willing to keep the same CBA but take the players side of the deal - - i.e. the players portion is $1B off the top plus 40.5% of the rest and the owners get 59.5% of the rest?

If the players think the deal is a fair one, would they trade sides with the owners?

Since I have not heard either side suggest that swithching sides would be a useful model, I wonder if these folks are looking at the same numbers...
