Polian blames CBA for hold outs (must read)

Things are pretty much as we described them

But the uncertainty that comes with the last year of the collective bargaining agreement complicates things in a way that makes it sound highly unlikely either player will be getting a new deal.

“We’re not in a regular environment, that’s the problem,” Polian said. “I’ve spoken to both their agents, and I certainly respect both men and they make a good case. But the problem is we don’t have a system, and without a system you don’t know where contracts might or might not fit.”

With that being the case, Polian said all he can do is ask for patience while Wayne and Mathis continue to perform at a high level. Each has two years remaining on his deal.
