LeBron is just an independent contractor at this point of his career. But as we all know, banners fly a lot longer. If this team has a chance to upgrade talent to remain competitive, including bringing in mercaneries, they have to do it. This is the window. And though they cant add bodies at present, it includes this season.
Even if they win another championship this season, they need to do whatever it takes to maximize the number of chances this core has at winning titles going forward. Its not unreasonable to consider scenarios where this squad is a perennial contender over the next few years.
