On November 6, the Charlotte Bobcats arrived at the Wachovia Center to challenge the Philadelphia 76ers on their home court.

During the off-season, the 76ers had made a significant roster overhaul, trading away or not re-signing players who did not fit well with the core duo of Andre Miller and Iguodala.

Even for a shooter like Korver, when the management received offers above their psychological price, they decided not to match.

While Korver was good, he indeed did not mesh with their outside shooting core.

Moreover, Korver at that time was merely a shooter. During his 4 years with the 76ers, his defense had always been astonishingly bad. He had a stint as a starter alongside Iverson, and during that time, both allowed their direct opponents to score 110 points per 100 possessions, a defensively shocking performance from the sieve-like duo.
