If you've got 4 or 5 players league wide that make these types of moves annually it's not such a big deal.

If the top 2 or 3 players from several teams are doing it, it's going to destroy parity. Not every team will have cap to make these players happy and star players will collude to play together in the markets they prefer. 
Competent or not, EVERY team gets into cap trouble eventually, and kowtowing to star players' demands is one of the ways they do it.

I don't think we'll ever see a culture of players teaming up on other squads by leaving their respective teams in the way the NBA has it. 

What we will see is players leaving teams when they don't fulfil their role, the same way teams drop players if they don't fulfil theirs.  

Cap trouble doesn't really happen much as anymore with how everything is structured. 

Even if all of this is true , what's the solution to preventing players from wanting out of bad situations? That seems like a completely natural and fair way to do business to me
