Before Tuesday night's game against Milwaukee, new Sixer Gordan Giricek was talking about how happy he was to be a part of the Sixers.

While he’s still living in a hotel, he said he planned to look for a place of his own after the trip to Toronto and settle in.

Not so fast, Gordan. For one thing, the 6-foot-6 forward is an unrestricted free agent this summer, so signing a long-term lease isn’t a good idea.

For another, there’s the Philly factor to deal with. On Giricek’s first shot of his first home game at the Wachovia center, a miss, he got a taste. One fan yelled from the stands, “Korver would’ve made that.”

Giricek plays six minutes against the Bucks and was 0-for-2
