I think you misunderstood me. There's no reason you can't have the sum of the parts be greater than the whole, AND have players on the team who don't like each other.

Not liking your teammates is not a requisite condition for sucking. If you have two guys who don't like each other, as long as they're not being whiney bitches and they both work hard, you don't have a problem. It comes down to picking decent people; ie avoiding Brandon Lloyds.
