I am really torn between these two players both are great fits in our offensive philosophy of run and gun shoot threes and get high percentage shots. Given the recent rumors of Asik being traded and the need for a stretch 4 who would you prefer to have out of these two players. I am leaning more towards Ryan Anderson because his FT% is higher he is consistent in the upper thirty's in three point percentage and rebounds well enough even though Ersan rebounds a little better than him. Both would fit really well though. What do you all think?

I am surprised at the amout of votes already for Ersan. Huge shocker for me. I am leaning more towards Ryan Anderson because we have horrible FT shooting BIGS and we need someone automatic on the floor during hack a dwight he can at least play the five spot during that time. I don't trust any of our bigs to shoot Free throws well. Dwight, Asik, T Jones, DMO all are bad at it. He also has five pounds over Ersan as well.
Ersan will be able to space the floor AND play solid defense. I feel like with Anderson you're only getting a player on one side of the ball.
Ryan Anderson is the better offensive player but Ersan Ilysova is better all around, but none of them are better than the other at something by a considerable margin.
He really isn't much cheaper than Ryan Anderson Ryan Anderson Contract still has close to the same 8.3 mil cap hit that Asik's contract has. http://www.spotrac.com/nba/new-orleans-pelicans/ryan-anderson/ Ersan Ilyasova Contract is at 7.9 mil cap hit not much a difference. http://www.spotrac.com/nba/milwaukee-bucks/ersan-ilyasova/
No one would hack Ilyasova, the guy shoots 80% Don't know why you think Jones is a bad ft shooter though, what's he done wrong? not shoot 90%?
Why do both of them average like 60 games per season? Are they both injury prone? I know they are both injured right now.
Lebron is either going to stay in Miami or go back to the Cleveland so you might as well consider it a pipe dream to the second power.
