too many point guards

Apparently after the draft, the wolves and grizzlies agreed to a deal that would have the grizzlies send Kevin Love, Mike Miller, Brian Cardinal and Jason Collins to Minnesota and in return they would get O.J. Mayo, Marko Jaric, Antoine Walker and Greg Buckner. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but the grizzlies already have 3 young point guards in Mike Comely, Kyle Lowry and Javaris Crittenton. Now they’re adding OJ Mayo and Marko Jaric? That’s 5 freakin point guards! (I’m counting Buckner as a slightly undersized 2).

Unless the grizzlies are counting on making trades to teams without point guards like… ummm… I don’t know, the clippers Sacramento, Miami or something, how does this deal make sense for the grizzlies? At first I thought it could be to cut salaries, but I looked and the contracts Jaric and Walker have 4 years left, and they aren’t even all that inexpensive. Cardinal only had 3 years left on his so it cant be the money.

This deal does make sense for Minnesota however because we all knew they were heavily invested for foye. And they get a shooter in Mike Miller, and a guy they really like in Kevin Love. All they have to do is take on one the bad contract of Brian Cardinal.  

Now I’m curious, since the grizzlies appear so inept, what do we have that we could give up in exchange? They love their point guards so maybe they might like brevin knight for one of their young point guards. HAHAHAHA! Even that deal makes me laugh.
