A single player of Lowry's quality might be enough to push it over the top. You're welcome to scoff at that, and I'll scoff right back at you. Look at what Luka almost accomplished in the first round with the help of DFS and a cast of clowns. Look at what he is doing (so far) with Slovenia. Don't underestimate him.
Yes, he has back to back first round exits all. By. Himself. We are more than one signing away from having a team that can compete for a championship which makes spending all of our cap on a guy on his last legs confounding. Expecting Luka to do it all. By. Himself. is a great way to see him on another team in a few years.
I'm also not underestimating him but this is real life, not NBA2K.
