Burke traded to Utah for 14th and 21st picks.

[ernest787]

Ok. Burke to Utah makes more sense

[DesignatedT]

Just leave the from twitter on twitter as far as picks go.

sir yes sir

[Raven]

GMs get really screwed because of the best player philosophy

[ernest787]

I apologize if I ruin anything. Not able to watch right now so I'm only following here and on twitter. Trying not to jump the gun here

Wait, wait, wait....Utah traded for a black guy?

[DesignatedT]

Wait, wait, wait....Utah traded for a black guy?

[Raven]

what could Utah give up?? Kantner??

that would be like gasol trade bad

[Chinook]

Shabazz for OKC? It would be pretty interesting, since he's supposed to have a high ceiling and plays Harden's position.

[ducks]

Trey Burke for Utah makes much sense. And two picks for Flip. Such a normal trade. It has no place in this draft.

So this #11 pick is New Orleans' right?

I think it was reported that they liked Alphabet Soup.

[Biggems]

too bad rudy gobert wont fall to 28.......he is raw, but also a legit 7 footer with great wingspan....he would be a shot blocking machine that would be a great compliment to KL and DG.

[Chinook]

So this #11 pick is New Orleans' right?

No. 42 is. ESPN's just being stupid.

[BatManu20]

So this #11 pick is New Orleans' right?

No they got Noel, this year's 2nd round pick, and next years 1st round pick (top 3 protected). This pick is Philly's, and will likely be a PG to replace Jrue Holiday.

[Darkwaters]

So this #11 pick is New Orleans' right?

NOpe

[ernest787]

Yeah Philly kept 11. Heard that wanted McCollum. Wonder what they'll grab now

[DPG21920]

Well teams are making moves. Let's see what else happens. Philly and NO, UTA and MIN, what else? Is POR really keeping this PG?

[Chinook]

I think it was reported that they liked Alphabet Soup.

Yes, I do remember hearing that. We'll see if the Sixers take that guy or a point-guard.

[ducks]

who will post a thread now tp to sixers

[ducks]

The Philadelphia 76ers have acquired the rights to sixth overall pick Nerlens Noel in a trade that sends point guard Jrue Holiday to the New Orleans Pelicans, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

The Pelicans also will send a 2014 first-round pick to the Sixers in the trade. The Sixers received a second-round pick (No. 42 overall in Thursday's draft) from the Pelicans.

Noel, a 7-foot center from Kentucky, had been a candidate to be selected No. 1 overall before slipping to sixth.

Holiday, 23, averaged 17.7 points and eight assists this past season for the Pelicans.
