StarStreet Pick Five - Monday, March 11, 2013

Back at it. Who are you picking in today's matchups?

Stephen Curry (vs NY) or JR Smith (vs GS)
Ty Lawson (vs PHO) or Jrue Holiday (vs BKN)
Greg Monroe (vs UTA) or Brook Lopez (vs PHI)
Danilo Gallinari (vs PHO) or Andre Iguodala
Raymond Felton (vs GS) or Klay Thompson (vs NY)

I'd go Curry over Smith. Smith is more prone to off-nights than Curry, and Curry also has more potential for filling other categories such as assists and steals. Lawson over Holiday, as I see the BKN-PHI game being slower paced and lower scoring, while Denver will get out and run against PHX, meaning good things for Lawson. Lopez over Monroe, as Lopez will have better match-ups than Monroe, plus I could see Detroit getting out of the game early, meaning lots of outside shots. Iguodala over Gallinari, just because Gallinari can't help in as many areas as Iguodala. Finally, i think it's a push between Felton and Thompson, because Thompson gives volume at scoring and 3 pointers while Felton can provide help at points, assists and potentially steals. Either would work.

I went 3 for 5 last night to win. Was correct on Curry, Holiday, and Monroe. Was wrong on Gallinari and Felton. I should have listened to you about Iguodala.

Glad to help, I guess I was wrong on Holiday and Monroe.
