It really does seem like 6 of one half a dozen of another except you've traded uncertainty (what will be the true ceiling of picks that could have been made instead like Giannis and Payton) for certainty and 2 more years of playoffs assuming health = playoffs this year.
I view the longer term plan through a more pessimistic lens though because I think if Demps were forced to keep his picks we'd have wound up with MCW/Burke 2 years ago (not high on either) which means you wouldn't take Payton last year and probably end up with Saric who I also am not that high on.

I don't know why people don't get this.

That's fair. While it's only been one guy really, Demps's non AD draft record is spotty at best. For me, if the plan was to sign Evans all along, I do not do the Holiday trade. Likewise if the plan was to trade for Holiday, I do not do the Evans trade. One or the other, but not both moves.
It's more about fit than anything else for me. There is no need for all 3 of the guards mostly because of who the coach is. If the plan is to accelerate the rebuild and Gordon isn't part of the plan, then you must dump him. But at least 2 years with all 3 guys taking up 50% of the cap is a hell of a risk too.
