The 9-best lineup filtered by at least 10 mins played are:

In these they are present:

Chandler for 167 min (46% of total mins played) (8 lineup)
Nelson for 123 min (35% of total mins played) (7 lineup)
Gallo for 120 min (24% of total mins played) (6 lineup)
Murray for 108 min (38% of total mins played) (6 lineup)
Mudiay for 76 min (17% of total mins played) (only 3 lineup)
Jokic for 75 min (24% of total mins played) (3 lineup)
Nurkic for 69 min (21% of total mins played) (4 lineup)
Barton for 47 min (31% of total mins played) (2 lineup)
Faried for 56 min (17% of total mins played) (4 lineup)
Hernan for 44 min (33% of total mins played) (2 lineup)

Notes:
1) The duo Chandler-Gallo are present in all best lineup
2) All NetRtg positive lineup include Gallo-Chandler or at least Gallo or Chandler (fundamental imho the rotation, ie: start Gallo-Chandler 4min, Gallo 8min, Chandler 8 min, Gallo-Chandler 4 min and the same for the second half… so to have 32 mpg for both and start and closing always with Gallo-Chandler)
2) Chandler was been exceptional (his defense is not fully represented by traditional stats)
3) Murray and Nelson very well with different lineup (NetRtg inflated to play against bench but Nelson however play 25mpg, so several mins against starter)
4) Mudiay the only positive lineup are those with Gallo-Chandler-(Jokic/Nurkic/Faried)

5) The starting lineup
Mudiay-Barton-Gallo-Chandler-Nurkic (36min, NetRtg= +6.2)
and the bench lineup
Nelson-Murray-Hernangomez-Chandler-Jokic (34min, NetRtg= +7.5)

are very powerful (if Chandler could play 48min) :smile:

In my opinion eye test confirm these notes.
