Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert couldn't help but make fun of his former teammate Enes Kanter, who has been known to be a fair-weather player during his stint in the league.
Kanter, now a member of the New York Knicks after the trade that sent Carmelo Anthony to the Oklahoma City Thunder, was basking in the atmosphere at the garden, once again trying to endear himself to the fan base after yesterday's preseason opener between the Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets.
Wow!! That cheer and roar @TheGarden tonight was sending chills to my soul.
Unbelievable…
Love it ❤️🍎— Enes FREEDOM (@EnesFreedom) October 4, 2017
Gobert took this priceless opportunity to troll him, latching onto his response after Kevin Durant dissed OKC in a tweet, using that platform to denounce Durant and deem the city as “Okla-home,” calling Thunder fans “the best fans in the world.”
Best fans in the world? https://t.co/I9fYXsTE2N

Nothing seems to get past Gobert, who has held grudges from Kanter's public trade request from the Utah Jazz to his peculiar ways to try and appeals to a fan base.
Kanter is also coming off stating what a great teammate he is, offering that he would have taken a knee during the anthem to show his support for those who suffer social injustice, but that he chose to lock arms as part of a team decision.
The 6-foot-11 center is also in a battle royale with three others vying for the starting position, hopeful to lock down the position after failing to do so in his last two teams.
