Rebuilding officially starts Wednesday night in Washington when the new-look Nets open the 2008-09 season against the Wizards. It looks more like Josh Boone start at center, but look for Brook Lopez to square off with rookie counterpart JaVale McGee at some point.. Gilbert Arenas and Brendan Haywood won't be available for the Wiz, but Antawn Jamison and Caron Butler will.
