I think you could argue the only one thats having success is zbo. Lee is now a bench player with GS (I still think he's solid), Wilson and Gallinari aren't exactly lighting up the league, and Moz remains to be seen but it does look like hes doing well.
In my opinion though, we have a bad habit of putting players in a role they aren't suited for. My best two examples are crawford and JR. Jamal has been thriving as a 6th man and JR, so far, seems more comfortable in a limited role.
how many players we have now will be here in 3 yrs

I agree that Z Bo is the one (with Crawford) that has had big success.
But there are others:
Trevor 'Delusional' Ariza
Nate Robinson
Channing Frye
Put those three with Jamal and Z Bo, and add in David Lee- and that is pretty solid group of NBA'ers who are all mostly still in the league, contributing more or less in a positive fashion.
