Like you, I am highly skeptical we will have success that way, and it will involve gutting the team in the process. I still think the correct route is trade. After the next draft, we will have access to all of our future picks. We don't have to pull the trigger right away, but that is our best shot at getting a number 2 and being a legit contender.
The issue with the trade route is that we don't (and won't, for the next two years) have any substantial assets aside from the first rounders, which will presumably be low (until Luka leaves, of course...).
