is going to be the starting 5 and how they fill their bench
At this point people are just grasping at straws trying to find a weakness, or fabricate a reason why this team won't work.
They have by far the best 1-4 players of any team in the nba. So their 5-9 players are going to be their downfall? Which team has a bench that will overcome the Warriors starting 5?
The Warriors still have barbosa, livingston and iguodala. They can afford to lose one of those guys if necessary.
Barnes sucks and isn't a loss. Bogut is a rim protector but he looked a lot better than he really is because he was playing in a great system. Even speights and azeli performed well in the Warriors system. I'm sure they can find a solid athletic big man to fill bogut's place if need be.
Adding durant to this team is pretty much unfair. I could be in their starting 5 and they would still win the title.

Its not grasping at straws which implies there is no legitimacy to the points being made.
They have ZERO centers right now. And while the game has moved away from being big men dominant, they still are a necessary requirement in some capacity.
It is a very real area of weakness for what is otherwise poised to be an all time great team. How much of an issue is yet to be seen because FA isnt over and the year hasn't started, but anyone that watched the post season should understand that hand waving away quality big men is foolish.
