5 more songs Kyrie Irving can troll LeBron James with
1. “Name Me King” by The Game and Pusha T
There’s no mistaking this as anything but a shot at LeBron. Perhaps you’ve heard that LeBron’s nickname is “The King.” He has it tattooed on his body. His social media handle is “KingJames.” He guest starred on “Game of Thrones.” You may have missed it because he was killed in the first five second of being on screen. Kings don’t last on that show.
There are a roughly 372 famous rap songs with some reference of a king. Whether it’s being the king of rap, the king of a city, a king in history, or LeBron himself. The word “king” is the most used non-curse word in rap.
I’m going with “Name Me King” because why be subtle at this point? Everyone knows Kyrie wants out of Cleveland and wants his own team. Tired of playing with the King, he wants to be his own King. King Kyrie does have a nice ring to it.

The actual song isn’t my favorite, but the chorus repeats “name me king” over and over. Kyrie can just smile and nod a lot as the song plays in the background. And NBA Twitter can go crazy.
