Yeah...

They've had a ton of lottery picks in the last 4 years (well, they've had 4) but if you look at the roster, I think the young player with the most upside is Mitch?  And he for sure has his flaws.  Frank and Knox are basically write-offs at this point; maybe they can be contributors but it's basically impossible to see them as key pieces on a good team.

Barrett was awful last year.  Too early to write him off, but there were some glaring flaws there (obviously exacerbated by the horrific spacing, which has been improved.  I guess?) coming into the league and its not like he's given you reason to feel a lot better about him.  Toppin?  I wasn't huge on the pick.  I guess he deserves some time, but I dunno.

I guess the good news in basketball all it really takes is one legit star to make you relevant; maybe they win the lottery and Cade Cunningham really is that guy.  The future isn't totally bleak, they have no bad contracts, they have all their picks plus 2 from Dallas, but I can't even point to one guy who I think even has like a 40-50% chance of being a solid contributor on a very good team
