He's an intriguing name, for sure.
I never believed the rumors of a buyout, with so much money sitting on the table next year. It seems the rumors are coming to fruition, Blake is walking away from a suitable chunk of money just to be in a better situation.
He's playing like a shell of himself. The right team could gamble, and see if that's merely motivation, he might have a Batum resurgence in a winning organization with a defined role. I don't know that we have such a role for him.
At the 4, Griffin adds playmaking and a bit of shooting, but his exceptional athleticism is gone. From a run/jump standpoint, he's just a guy now. He also can't switch effectively.
For our needs, I would put Rondae higher in priority. But Blake is worth a look, and some team may unearth a diamond.
Some people really have a way with words. Other people... not... have... way.
