How do you measure "better". Asik is great on defense and not great on offense. Anderson is great on offense and not great on defense.

And it depends on team needs. Anderson is a PF. Davis is also a PF. So unless you don't plan on getting a real center and plan on pushing Davis to the center spot when Anderson is on the floor so that they can both be useful at the same time, it doesn't make sense to keep Anderson.

Plus, what the Pelicans lack is defense. Asik and Davis front court would be filthy.

And as far as contracts, the cap hits are almost exactly the same.

I think it is a good trade for both teams.



It's better for Huston. If we do the trade teams would double Davis and Asik would clog the paint for Tyreke, Jrue, and AD to drive to the lane.

I think we should do Gordon for Mcgee they may be more inclined since Gordon has a PO and Mcgees is guaranteed and they need a sg. As long as they don't ever pass Mcgee the ball we should be ok and that would be a long arse front court.

That never happened in Houston when Asik was on the floor.

Want Asik over him every time.

That didn't happen last year in Houston. They had Harden and Parsons and that's about it. Lin was pretty mediocre last season.

I'm not in favor of the trade because I have no faith that Monty knows how to space the floor. Anderson does that for him.
