Isnt the money negotiations equal right now whether they play 50 or 100 games? Wouldnt the players want to get paid the same for less?
Maybe I missed something in the negotiations.

Ina general sense it seems like the owners want the money from the playoffs and the players want to be paid per game played. The owners are going to make X revenue regardless of the number of games played because there won't be fans, so they are looking for a way to pay the players as little as possible and get on to the playoffs and the extra TV/streaming cash.
