Speculation ensues after private jet outfit tweets at LeBron, Wade, Gilbert

The year 2016 is a scene, man. Luxury Jets Group, a company that provides private aircraft to well-heeled clients, posted a tweet Monday including the handles of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert.

Rich people possibly hanging out on a Gulfstream jet is not news, until one of them is locked in a contract impasse with the Miami Heat. Within minutes, Twitter was ablaze with speculation that Wade was being courted by his old friend and teammate, along with the Cavs owner.

Some even began to follow a plane via a flight tracker from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., near Miami, to Cleveland - either hugely entertained or completely unaware the tweet could just have been an epic troll job.

To be fair, there's flight tracker precedent here. In 2014, some fans did the same in following Gilbert's jet to South Florida in the midst of recruiting James back to the Cavaliers.
