Except when we did get AD on our team we were still drafting top 10 for multiple years. So your premise is kind of flawed. We can't attract super FA's like Miami. We need to hit on some minor free agents and the draft. Otherwise we end up goings the Cleveland model. I don't want to hope AD comes back here after winning championships in a big market.
We have a better chance of fluking into the OKC/Warriors/Spurs model than wining via the Heat model. More than likely we end up doing the Cleveland model where we will get a high pick when AD leaves because we can't build a competitor around him with trades and mid-tier fee agents.

Only once.
Maybe if we didn't do the Jrue trade we make it twice. The reality is that AD is just too good to stay bad for that long. All the examples people have given are of teams that have yet to draft anyone even half as good as AD.
I highly doubt Minny will be this bad next year or the year after that. With the way the west is right now, they could be and 8-10 seed next year.
Celtics aren't going to get any better through the draft unless they luck into a stud in the mid to upper teens.
Milwaukee has taken a step back this year, but they made the playoffs last year.
Acquiring talent is difficult in this league. Other than sheer luck, no "model" has proven consistently to pay off.
