They might mess it up. Very possible. And you're right - the target is getting smaller. But, the standard is the standard, and it's a FACT that there's a minimum level of talent you need, if the goal is to be a championship favorite. 

And yes, there will be off-seasons after next, but unfortunately, if they come up empty between now and then, the stakes will be completely different. If that happens, depending on the situation, I might even be inclined to blow it up down to Luka again immediately and start this whole ride over. Trade KP (if he's healthy enough) and anyone else you can for picks and cheap players YOUNGER than Luka and start the long route again. 

ANYTHING but a repeat of Dirk's career.

The fear at that point is that Luka will force his way out before that process starts over...
Losing the generational talent is among my worst fears... I don't want to be Orlando losing Shaq, then T-Mac, then...
