What 2 players do you guys think work together well on the team?

Sometimes the 2 man game works well for a series of plays with team mates that have a good chemistry.

I'm thinking Batum with almost anyone but specifically Cody and Kemba.
Kemba and Al
Jeremy and Jeremy
Frank and ?
sometimes Cody and Hawes

Who doesn't particularly work well. Haven't found Lin and Kemba to work that well. But they need to.

All below numbers drawn from this article.

(I am not sure what bench refers to - probably usually Marvin Cody Hawes Lin and Lamb because article is based on first 19 games)

Batum and Lin - when they are playing with bench - best eFG for both players
Cody and Hawes also shoot the best in this lineup
This lineup also has
-fastest team pace
-highest team offensive rating.
-highest team net rating at 14.3. The next highest team net rating is for bench at 13. These are only two lineups with net rating above 10. The next net rating is 2.0

Lineup with the team's best defensive rating is when Kemba plays with bench - but Kemba with bench has a net rating of zero - this is caused in part by steep drop off in assisted shots (65.8% for bench and 43.3% for bench with Kemba.) Kamba's shot is best when playing with Lin and starters, or with bench - but bench with Kemba has lowest team shooting percentage

Bench with Batum has highest team shooting percentage

Jeremy- Jeremy with second unit (without Kemba or Batum) is best for Lamb's usage and shot - it is ok but actually not great for Lins shot and usage

I have thought the Batum and bench combination was good. I am not sure Kemba and bench is as bad as numbers suggest. It is still a pretty small sample size.

Thanks, steady.
