10) 2015-16 Cleveland Cavaliers

Lineup: Matthew Dellavedova, LeBron James, Iman Shumpert

Net Rating: 30.0

What happens when you surround the best player in the game -- LeBron James -- with two outstanding role players? In this instance, an NBA championship was the result.

During the Cleveland Cavaliers' run to the Finals and victory over the Golden State Warriors, the backcourt duo of Matthew Dellavedova and Iman Shumpert flanked James, producing 9.5 more field goals and 7.4 more three-point makes than their opponents in 107.5 minutes and 380 possessions together.
