We have scored 1083 and allowed 1090 for the season in 15 games against Power 5 competition, after eliminating garbage time.
Our worst two man combo has been Ryan Young and Robbie Beran. They have been outscored 149-113 in 87 minutes. Shockingly bad. AVOID.
Buie and Greer in the backcourt have been phenomenal together... Here are Buie and Greer when teamed with each of the other guys in the rotation.

Buie and Greer are productive with almost everyone. Avoid teaming them with Chase Audige.
Much of Buie and Greer's extra success comes from the lineups below, which rarely see the court, but play well when they do.

Robbie Beran does not have a positive +/- with any teammate. He is the only rotation player in that situation.
Elyjah Williams has a better +/- with each teammate than that teammate has with Robbie Beran.
So essentially there is no player on the team that sees better results when he is teamed with Beran instead of Williams.

However, there is a fairly strong connection between Chase Audige and Ty Berry. They are 300-267 in 157 minutes of play.

So...
Play Greer primarily with Buie, but do not include Audige.
Play Williams more than Beran.
Play Young with Williams or Nance.
Play Audige mostly with Berry.
Play Roper primarily with Nance.
Avoid playing Berry with Roper.

Win lots of games.
