He's provided a lot of information that has been confirmed by more "credible" sources hours and days AFTER he reported it.

Most notably, he reported Peyton to Denver almost a week before it occurred.

He's been getting interviews with several radio stations and online news outlets lately.

Obviously, hard to get TOO excited until LeBron speaks the words, but I thought it was noteworthy.

Joshua Teplitz ‏@Josh_Tep 4m Dan Gilbert on plane to MIA. LeBron James will sign TONIGHT. Verbally agreed days ago. Will put ink to paper. HE'S BAAAAAAAACK


Dan Gilbert @cavsdan · 3m

“. @LullOnSports:Cavs owner Dan Gilbert is currently en route to south Florida.” I am? Sorry folks but enjoying weather in my backyard today





no credit from me. any rando can get lucky once.

edit: I'm pretty sure Incarcerated Bob's claim to fame is calling Manning to the Broncos. lol

When Lebron doesn't sign tonight, can we officially discredit this 160lb personal trainer with the bad haircut as a source?

Gotta assume that's Gilbert's jet? And my next question is how do people know it's his?

Then why is this 20 yr old with bad tattoos claiming he'll sign tonight?

No, why would I? I want him to sign. But the amount of dick riding going on for this Josh guy is embarrassing. He's a personal trainer with no sources and no connections that's hoping to get famous by guessing that Lebron will sign and pretending it was based on his "sources." I would say it's a brilliant plan, but it's tried by like 500 people a day on twitter. For some reason people were just dumb enough to buy it from this guy.

Not sure exactly, but check out the flight history. Seems to be based in Cleveland and a lot of back in forth from Cleveland to Detroit.

The plane is registered to a company registered in the same building whose other tenant is Quicken Loans, and the plane was used to fly to Jersey to sign Kyrie. It's his plane, doesn't mean he's the one on it.

Definitely Gilbert's plane... From a poster on RCF:
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N...800Z/KPTK/KFLL

he's lying dude...check the flight info

registered to gilbert's company

its a private jet that flies primarily between Michigan and Cleveland

then look at the 27th, day after the draft. plane flew from cleveland to detroit, then detroit to NYC, then NYC back to cleveland...all on the day after the draft

it also flew to new jersey on july 1st for kyrie
Now, amidst all of the recent news from multiple "sources," why would Gilbert fly to Florida or allow anybody to use his plane to fly to Florida, knowing there would be a shitstorm of speculation?

This likely means nothing, but still...

Why can't he sign until the 10th? I thought FA began July 1.
