The 2006–07 Philadelphia 76ers season was the 68th season of the franchise, 58th in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Sixers finished with a record of 35–47. The 2006-07 Sixers season also marked the end of Allen Iverson's tenure with the Sixers, after a blockbuster trade sent Allen Iverson to Denver in return for Andre Miller, Joe Smith, and two first round draft picks in the 2007 NBA Draft. Despite the trade, and after having a record of 5–18 before the Iverson trade, the Sixers finished 30–29 for the remainder of the season.
