I'll be honest. I think the league wants the Warriors to be successful. They're pushing for the Ws to move to a new arena in San Francisco in the future, and the league was embarrassed by the owner getting rained on with boos on the night they were retiring Chris Mullin's jersey. Still, the Ws tanked gratuitously, and that can't be rewarded too much. So they get their pick at #7. Makes sense in the bigger picture. Norcal is a big market and the Kings are probably moving on.
Now lets see if the Jazz can make a deal with a player and/or TPE.
