This kind of shite has to be dealt with during the next CBA negotiations. The tail has wagged the dog for way too long in that league.

What’s the solution you’re thinking of exactly?

This simply comes down to leverage. The top end players have a ton of it because of how important 1 player can be to a franchise and it’s less risky to reach FA because it’s easier to stay healthy. There’s never going to be a way to combat that unless you eliminate FA or the talent pool of top end talent quadruples overnight
