The major difference between DAL, BOS, MIA, and GSW is not the role players. GSW doesn't have some magic ability to identify incredible talent in role players that DAL doesn't have. Role players are elevated by coaching, culture, and the stars of the team. Give GSW the Mavs role players and they would likely not miss a beat.
I think the thing a lot of people would disagree with you on is that our role players are ALREADY being elevated. Also, I'm not sure who we're calling role players. Golden State is starting Curry, Klay, Wiggins, Draymond, and Looney. The only one you can call a role player there is Looney, and he obliterated his role player counterpart on our team. Similarly, Boston is starting Smart, Brown, Tatum, Horford, and Williams... that front court crushes ours.
