The Nets haven't been at .500 on December 1 since 2002-03, so Saturday's game gives them an opportunity to match the NBA finalists in at least one regard. The 7-8 Nets go up against the rebuilding Sixers. At 5-10, they haven't taken up where they finished last season when a late flourish almost got them to the playoffs. The Nets play four games in the next five nights. Sixers beat the Wiz by one Friday.
