My vote would be go, depending on how far you are from V1. No rubber/tire on that side would severely impede your stopping power.Single wheel gear setup. Do you continue or try to stop with no rubber on one side? What is your take on this? Seems that stopping would be harder than accelerating to v1, though control would be an issue.

Better to continue the t/o, go around the pattern, and land using full length.
If the runway is that short, maybe consider burning off some weight and/or looking for a longer (and wider) runway. Might be a good idea to leave the gear down, also. If the wheel or gear doors are damaged, they could get stuck in transit.
I've never had a blown tire, either
And this opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it...
Just my opinion, but I don't think acceleration would be hampered all that much, not nearly as much as the loss of braking power would be to stopping. Look at it this way, you just lost half your brakes.But would the aircraft accelerate normally to rotate speed. You may run out of runway getting to Vr if it is a short field. Also a blown tire can do a lot of damage to hydraulics, fuel, etc., just look at what it did to the concorde. Just a few more things to think about, but I think I would be inclined to stop.

Interesting thought about the a-skid. If you're on the rim, you won't get much braking, locked wheel or not, right? How about the other, good wheel? Wouldn't you want the best braking and protection possible? You sure wouldn't want that one to blow, also.I think the anti-skid would prevent you from getting much stopping power when the wheel with no tire stopped spinning.

I admit I don't know anything about your airplane, however.
Ah, thanks. I thought it may be type-specific. Most a-skids I've used only release the wheel that is locked. If your system releases both, that would certainly make sense.The way the Beechjet works, if one main stops, it will release the other main. I am assuming that it would be very easy to stop the wheel with no tire, therefore it would keep releasing the good brake. I think I might want it off, and use gentle braking on landing. On a long runway and T/R's the Beechjet requires almost no braking.
Don't get me wrong, I am open to debate on this, Those were just my thoughts.
