I like the balance we have now with PJ and Naji as big wing defenders, and Grimes and Exum as POA defenders. Honestly, I think the biggest concern is the lack of POA defender in the starting lineup. As you mentioned, that will be somewhat mitigated by having a legit rim protecting center. Its one of the reasons I think Lively should start (if not immediately then soon) as I think he will be the most effective at covering this up.
Ya, we'd ideally want a starting SG or SF to be our POA defender. Klay and Kyrie makes this difficult when both in the starting lineup.
