How much correlation is there with team chemistry and team success?

Take the Cubs for example… I’ll admit they’re probably not THE best team on paper (though they are in the top 5 I’d say), but they play extremely well together as a team and when someone makes a mistake another player always seems to be there to pick them up.
So the question is, do you think team chemistry plays a huge role in success?

definitely. If players don’t get along or don’t like their manager, the chances of failing are greater. When each plays as a piece of the whole puzzle then different ones always fit in and success is achieved.
I think it’s actually the reverse. Team success tends to breed team chemistry.
