Last night, the Memphis Grizzlies got smacked by the Golden State Warriors when they lost to the defending NBA Champions by 50 points. Yes, FIFTY POINTS. Stephen Curry only played three quarters but scored 30 points and he just decimated the Grizz in the third quarter by scoring 21 points in the third quarter alone.
So some sort of changes might have to be made to avoid more embarrassing losses like this. I guess the answer might have to be bringing in veteran point guard from the Miami Heat, Mario Chalmers.
Following from ESPN’s Marc Stein.
Season's first bit of NBA trade scuttle dribbles in: ESPN sources say Grizzlies have discussed potential deal for Miami's Mario Chalmers

No trade imminent yet, I'm told, but sources say that the Grizzlies and Heat have discussed a potential Chalmers-to-Memphis swap

In three games played this season, Chalmers is averaging 6.7 points, 3 assists and 1.3 steals. He’s shooting 41.7% from the field but only 20% from three point range. The Grizzlies have been hurting from three point range over the last few seasons and they have tried to bring in players to help but to this point, it hasn’t worked.
Chalmers isn’t a knockdown three-point shooter and he might not even be an upgrade from Beno Udrih but according to prior reports, the Heat are trying to essentially give away Chalmers so it might end up working out for both sides.
