3. “Tied Together With A Smile” by Taylor Swift

I wouldn’t be #onbrand if I didn’t include a Taylor Swift song that Kyrie could troll LeBron with. Here’s what you have to remember about Taylor Swift: she has a song for every occasion and she’s the greatest diss artist of all-time. If you want tracks that show your anger or disdain for someone, you play them a Taylor Swift track. Sometimes it’s subtle. Most of the time, not so much.

"In the case of this track, we’re going a bit subtle. “Hold on, baby, you’re losing it The water’s high, you’re jumping into it And letting go and no one knows That you cry, but you don’t tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you’re tied together with a smile But you’re coming undone”"

This is not only a shot at LeBron, it’s a shot at the entire Cavaliers organization. No matter how often LeBron says things are fine or how much Kevin Love tries to ignore the situation by selling clothes, things are not fine in Cleveland. They just signed Derrick Rose. Cleveland is a mess.

In using this song and those specific lyrics, Kyrie is questioning LeBron’s ability at 32-years-old and his confidence. “You might not be the golden one.” Who is the only team better than LeBron’s Cavs? How many players are better than LeBron in history?

This song, like most Taylor Swift songs, can cut deep if you want them to.
