how can this franchise be serious about winning ?

I would say:
1. Bosh: He grew massively since arriving.
2. Carter: He started off at a much higher level than Bosh.
3. Pick a name, no one who's been here a long time stands out like these two above.

Well, yeah.. I'm sadly disappointed in our scouting and drafting, a key part in our moving forward. Some of their draft players were just complete busts who hardly played in the NBA at all.. 5th overall in 99', Jonathan Bender.. We traded him immediately for Antonio Davis, that really didn't work out for Indiana. Kareem Rush wasn't a total bust at 20th overall, but he was traded away immediately as well.
4 first round total busts at a glance, but just looking at the history here.. We've acquired a number of first round picks from trades that don't show up in the records, and it doesn't say what happened.. I'd assume they'd mention if they traded them away. (on wiki page for Raps draft history btw)
On a high note, with our latest 3 picks, Hibbert, Derozan, and Ed Davis, maybe we're turning a corner? Or maybe they were complete obvious choices.. Has Colangelo done anything to improve scouting? It's not really mentioned a lot.
