With a record of 11-19, the Charlotte Bobcats keep plugging along. Still, they are fourth in the Southeast behind Orlando, Atlanta and Washington. And, yeah, so they blew a 12-point lead to lose to the Chicago Bulls to start the new year. It’s still a new year, a new chance to show that talent we’ve all seen glimpses of in games less important than this. So, two obstacles stand in their way to victory … mainly Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony, leaders of the Denver Nuggets. It’s not an impossible feat. Keep it crackin’, Bobcats. 7 p.m. $10-$85. Charlotte Bobcats Arena, 333 E. Trade St. 704-522-6500. www.charlottebobcatsarena.com.
