I like your Portland over Houston prediction TK. Portland has some matchups they can exploit. Lillard will eat Lin alive, and I don't think Terrance Jones can guard Aldridge. Lopez is big enough to matchup with Howard. Blazers will have an advantage at the Rose Garden, one of the best home courts in the NBA. I like Clippers a lot, but GS is a tough draw. If they can get past GS I like their chances to get by OKC in the second round.
East looks chalky. Only possible upset I see is possibly Brooklyn over Toronto. Wizards may have a chance if they can out score Chi, but Bulls have a huge advantage in experience, coaching and defense. I do think Bobcats may be able to win a couple games.
