NBA Rankings - 24 Dec

Many of the top teams have been struggling over the past month, which allowed the hottest team, Memphis, to jump 9 spots to reach #3 overall and take the top spot in the West. Also on fire are Brooklyn and New York, both jumping solidly into the playoffs and the top 10. Here are my full current rankings:
