LeBron James takes subtle shot at Boston Celtics before highly-anticipated matchup

LeBron James takes a shot at the Boston Celtics without even saying a word.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics are squaring off in the Eastern Conference Finals, and LeBron James has already taken a subtle shot at his opponent.

James appeared at a post-practice interview in a shirt with the logo from his high school, the St. Vincent-St. Mary Fighting Irish. The logo for his high school is a leprechaun, not dissimilar from the Boston Celtics' logo.

The main difference between the Celtics' logo and his old logo is that the high school logo has a halo on it—which means it has already died.

LeBron knew exactly what he was doing when he chose that shirt to wear. He might suggest otherwise, but he is calculated and highly intelligent. He's definitely having some fun with his upcoming opponent.

When you've won four MVPs, three NBA titles and you're the defending NBA champ, you can get away with antics like that. There's a pretty good chance he'll back it up on the court, too.
