Green's passing is the result of him penetrating the lane and looking to pass first before scoring. This isn't a bad thing, but most times, this is infuriating, specially those times when he skips a layup for a pass to the outside shooters. It's like he thought of a pass even before he went on a drive. With Grimes, he makes the smart extra pass when he needs to, and often, just takes it upon himself to score (usually on layups).
Grimes off the dribble pull-up game is also better than Josh's.
While Green is the faster player, I do not trust his handles. Grimes' control of the ball is way better. His spin moves takes defenders off-guard.
And in D? Grimes is way better. Green's defense is all hustle. Grimes defense is positioning and awareness.
Grimes is just the smarter, more dynamic, more skilled and more aggressive version of Green.
