Big NBA deadline deal

ESPN says:
The Utah Jazz acquired veteran forward Alan Henderson from Philadelphia just before the trade deadlineThursday. The Jazz and 76ers exchanged the right to trade second-round picks in the 2007 draft. Philadelphia also included undisclosed cash considerations in the deal.

So, wait a minute…what? Henderson was traded for 'the right to trade 2nd round picks'? What the fuck is that? So if Utah has the #42 pick in the draft and Philly has #46, they swap? Philly gave up a player and cash to maybe get a better 2nd round draft pick which they probably won't get. And what did they get for it? Uh, nothing. WTF?
