I said last year they should have blown it up and traded AD and Lebron as they aren't winning shit without adding a couple of pieces. AD isn't going to dominate every night and Lebron is out there stat padding and playing no defense. Blow it up.

LeBron hasn't played defense for years outside of the playoffs, but what does "stat padding" even mean in this context? He shouldn't be being asked to post 30 point triple doubles every game for that team to win at this stage of his career and it's not his fault that prime AD doesn't give a shit for half the games.
I'd love to see LeBron go be a role guy on a contender but that ship sailed years ago when he took full control of the Lakers organization to the point where he could push his son into a NBA roster spot.
