Unless Blake's scoring 40 a game, he won't help them much to beat Cleveland.

Boston has already moved past the Raps. With the future assets they have, they can easily acquire Westbrook right now and move further ahead.
Lebron is the Cavs, he gets hurt and Cavs are done. Kyrie is nothing without him.
Despite Carroll defending Lebron, he still had his way with the Raps. When he turned it up a notch in game 5 and 6 there was no stopping him. There's really no one in the league who can stop Lebron.
If you can get Griffin on the cheap even for a year, you do it and hope for the best.
