Is he without blame? No. He's played a part but he isn't the main culprit. Kyrie was a knee jerk, dumb reaction by the Cleveland FO. As you said, LeBron didn't want it.
He's also not the one who traded for Love. Whether he wanted that trade or not is unknown (I think). Love is exactly what people knew he was. A good rebounder who can shoot from out but sucks at defense and is as injury prone as it gets.
I'd make the Wiggins for Love trade everyday. Wiggins is softer than Love.
IMO you can blame Lebron for the fact that he hasn't told Cavs what he plans to do in the FA. But, every local Cavs writer who spoke to Lebron and his ppl have said several times during the season - he doesn't know what he will do because it depends on what happens this season.
I guess you can blame him for it because Cavs decided not to trade that Nets pick and acquire a star player. Doubt anyone was really available though.
But as far as current personnel are concerned - he was told a day before deadline that these trades are ready to be executed and he didn't have any problem. That hardly puts him in charge.
