Is Briar better when played alongside Thresh?

There is no perfect ally for Briar that will 100% of the time be their top teammate. However, Thresh is a not very good companion for Briar. By playing on the same team as Briar, he decreases their win rate by -2.6% to 49.1%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative synergy between Briar and Thresh that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Thresh has a much greater difficulty compared to Briar. That means you need to be very careful when lining up Thresh comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a much greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Playing alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by aligning Briar and Thresh together, you probably will not be giving your team much magic damage. Plan to bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Thresh ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
