I have no issue trying to win with this team for the next couple of seasons (ideally with a tweak here or a big move there to maximize their shot to win). But beyond that, the decision point of tying ourselves down to DeRozan long term, with the limited potential for adding a better piece beside him, might define the next half decade or more of this team.
So if you are of the mindset that this window will close with Lowry's decline, then the team needs to plan for another road to success - because keeping it all together long term and having an aging Lowry be the 2nd best player to DeRozan is a choice that will lead to worse teams than we currently have. And once you decide that the team is going to move away from this core within the next two years - then it only makes sense to at least consider the return you could get for this core if you move away from them a little early.
