[sc:BettingArticlesShortcoder ]NBA Betting Power Rankings as of December 26
| Team | Trend |

1. Charlotte Bobcats
Next Games: vs. Thunder, @Hawks, @Jazz
For many seasons, the Bobcats were a caravan of incompetence. They simply couldn’t buy a win at home, and were even worse on the road. But the times are a-changing, folks. The ‘Cats are no pushovers like they used to be. And nothing brings light to that point better than Charlotte’s recent performance on the road. Though the team carries a so-so 6-4 SU in its last 10 away games, bettors will be blown away by Charlotte’s 10-0 ATS slate over that stretch. [sc:NBA240banner ]
2. Detroit Pistons
Next Games: @Magic, @Wizards, vs. Wizards
The Pistons can score. They average over a hundred points per game, but unfortunately, they also surrender 101.7 PPG. You know where we’re going, right? Detroit is the current dream team for OVER bettors as the Pistons are 10-0 OVER in their last 10 games overall.
3. Denver Nuggets
Next Games: @Pelicans, @Grizzlies, vs. Heat
Denver is coming off four straight setbacks and a three-day rest could be what the team needs to get back to winning. The team’s scoring has also dipped lately, which partly explains Denver’s 8-0 UNDER record in its last eight games. That’s an impressive trend, and NBA bettors should take note.
4. Phoenix Suns
Next Games: @Warriors, vs. Sixers, @Clippers
Phoenix is 8-2 SU in its last 10 games, which includes winning streaks of three and four games. Surprised? Well, it might be high time to start getting used to these “Solar Flares.” After losing to the Spurs last week, the Suns are back to their winning ways again, going 3-0 SU and ATS in their last three games.
5. Atlanta Hawks
Next Games: @Cavaliers, vs. Bobcats, @Magic
The Hawks went three games above .500 for the first time in more than a month when they subdued Utah, 118-85, on December 20 for their third straight win. Atlanta had a chance to win four in a row the following game against Miami, but lost a close 121-119 decision as 7.5-point road underdogs. Nevertheless, they left South Beach with a 4-0 ATS record in their last four games overall.
