If our main 3 guards is Jokubaitis,Brazdeikis,Grigonis that will play 20-25mintues our defence will be bad defending nba perimeter players.
No one good defender with 10min role isnt fixing that.
I watched 2 years playing in same club .Dimsa is better overall and more universal player than Giedraitis.If i need to choose between 2 who will be our 5 guard desicion is easy.
Dimsa simply defends more position players and is better shooter.Dimsa is bigger but also is better to be put at PG for few minutes.
Only advantage of Giedraitis when coach need to defend ultra fast guards.
Can NT take both of them maybe,but that will mean Grigonis most likely is out. Those 30minute per game we can already see signs of Marius body is not holding well like i predicted.
Near Domas and that defensively bad backourt trio : shooting,shooting and one more time shooting.Thats only hope of fighter chance for 2024 summer.
I see a bit different. When Grigonis locked in defensively, he's even better than what Dimsa can offer. Pesky and lengthier, plays mind games. Giedraitis can offer something that none of those 2 can. Grigonis can play two way since Jokubaitis and Brazdeikis will take a heavy lift now and Grigonis won't need to overdo with the ball, sticking more to spot up shooting and attacking close outs.
Dimsa is superior than Giedraitis in terms of attacking, scorer, ATM. Not play making. Actually at times Giedraitis is so good at passing that Dimsa never will be. Dimsa more explosive athletic scorer, but he's not gonna play make and string the team. Giedraitis also not, but he's slightly better at sheer play making, better at pick and role, decision making and so on.
My dark horse is Marciulionis. He simply has to be in the camp and shake some water, kick some ass with his lock down defense and athletic facilitating. I want his ass on Kariniauskas. He would squeeze his lazy high dribble ass. If he turns out not ready, be it, but he must be in the camp.
Maksvytis will screw it again, I'm pretty sure

Even I ATM looking from aside comfortably would have a hard time to make a claim.
Joku, Marciulionis, Giedraitis
Grigonis, Iggy, Dimsa
Butkevicius, Kuzminskas
Sedekerskis, Tubelis
Sabonis, Valanciunas
If Rubstavicius coming and he's tearing asses with his relentless motor and talent, take him even if Grigonis, Brazdeikis in. Talent shouldn't be ignored. If he's somewhat shaky, no necessity to ride the bench. Let Dimsa have his dance.
