Forget 4 years, the roster is in flux year to year. All they have signed long term is Nugget, Hyman and Nurse(LOL).

The roster has to be rebuild pretty every year, and now they lost their 2 best young players and have nothing in the pipeline and no picks. They have to spend picks to add to the roster, and you're not getting large young pieces to add for 3rd and 4th rounders.

So they will have to build the team through free agency, and piece together whatever they can.
