LeBron James has become a master of subtle messages in clothes form over the last 24 hours. During his shootaround on Sunday and well into the celebration he wore a Kermit sipping tea cap — sending a message to his haters. When he got off the plane in Cleveland he was greeted with a hero’s welcome. All while wearing an Ultimate Warrior shirt.

Get it ... because he beat the Warriors. LeBron put some thought into this one, too. Not only did he find a shirt that’s the perfect shade of blue, but this isn’t an easy shirt to find. It’s not on WWE’s page of Ultimate Warrior merchandise, and this is the only site selling the vintage shirt.

Epic shirt troll game, LeBron.
