Yeah, it seems like the league was pushing for this one.

The league has no right to veto a legal trade.
With CP3 , the New Orleans were in weird spot. Owner wanted out or died not so sure, so the league collectively decided to buy it, and then sell it within a season or so. So, during that time, the acting owner was the commissioner.
So when the deal agreed, he stepped in, and did his job as an owner.
Very rare and exclusive case, that was exacerbated due to bad front office, and the name of the lakers.

So, from the press conference with Kidd and Harrison just before they got pounded by Cavs (50-19 first quarter):
- Harrison did this by his own choice.
- Kidd didn't know about the trade before it happened. Which is mental.
- Rob Pelinka asked Nico if he was joking, which is probably the question every normal person would ask at this moment.
- Owners went along with Harrison and probably just thought about savings with no max contract (without thinking about jersey sales).
- Harrison just goes on and tries to paint himself as a contrary genious.
From the body language, Kidd looks dead inside.
