Interesting that the Portland writer who wrote pro-Paul/Bledsoe last month now moved to Cleveland to cover Cavs.

I know it's tampering, but I'm sure it's done and would be one of the only rational reasons Bledsoe would actually play for the QO.
I doubt it. Nobody keeps a secret forever (except the dead). The moment the relationship sours, the truth will come out. And chances are, it will come out long before the relationship goes south. I can't see anyone willing to risk facing what happened to the Wolves when they did something similar. Especially since the next big tampering scandal will probably be dealt with even harsher than before.

I guess if you write a sycophantic piece where you suck on Lebron's agent's behind, you too can get a promotion to Cleveland to worship at the feet of the King.

I'm sure it happens all the time. Not like a handshake deal. Plus, it's not really tampering as he can have discussions with teams this summer. They could have easily told him we don't have max cap space right now but will next summer when the Gay deal is up and would love to have you come play for us. I don't think that's tampering...it's certainly not enough to PROVE there was any tampering if nothing was written down, guaranteed or recorded.

Yeah right. Most message board geeks wouldn't get a second look from the sister either.
