Really, can the guy be any more of a crybaby? They just picked up Kyle freakin Korver.
Korver won't help much, maybe 1 in 5 games if he gets hot, otherwise he's a poor man's JR Smith.
LeBron has a point though. With his sites set on possibly the most talented team in NBA history (GSW), should he feel content to have Kay Felder as the team's only point guard behind Irving? Hell no, and it's not that hard to get a good point guard. Just about every roster in the NBA has a backup PG or two who would be a major upgrade for the Cavs.
If Dan Gilbert will listen to Lebron then the Cavs can totally use a time machine to bring back prime MJ, Wilt, Kareem, Kobe, and Oscar. Then finally Lebron will be confident that he can bring another championship to Cleveland, provided the Warriors have a bunch of injuries again.
There comes a time when you just have to just suit up and play with what you have. You can't keep making trade after trade every year changing the identity of team. It's not like they are in third place, they are in first place in the East. Lebron just wants to coast and relax during the regular season and then turn it on in the playoffs but things dont work that way.

The Cavs have the highest payroll in the league. Remember David Griffin didn't want to give Tristan Thompson an $80+ million dollar deal. He was rightfully looking down the line. But LeBron wanted Thompson to get paid and be retained. He can't now complain about the team's lack of flexibility. Most of the guys they have a players LeBron either wanted or approved of.
When so many players are getting "max" deals on one team making roster moves becomes very difficult. And yes, he needs to stop complaining. The Cavs will sleepwalk through the East. At least the Warriors and Spurs have to deal with each other out West. LeBron has a free pass to the Finals and a free spending owner. He has nothing to complain about.
