Very few come close to New York Knicks big man Enes Kanter when it comes to being the biggest troll in the NBA. Although he does tend to go overboard at times, Kanter claims that he actually has the backing of his peers.

According to the 6-foot-11 center, fellow NBA players are not only unoffended by his incessant banter but actually encourage him to carry on his mission.

“Actually they love it,” Kanter told ESPN's Royce Young. “They'll come up and say ‘We love your Twitter game. Just keep trolling, keep doing what you do.' But I think it's just fun. You do stuff like that, the league hates it, I guess, but the fans love it. It's the fun part of the game.”

It's all fun and games until you become the victim of Kanter's mockery. When you're the one getting roasted on a regular basis (read: Kevin Durant), then you're not likely to be this endearing towards the troll. At one point, you are bound to slip up and try to fire back with your own retort. Unfortunately, this is exactly what Kanter wanted all along.

If anything, Kanter is right about one thing. Fans truly adore his social media game. We would also love it if someone is able to step up to the plate and take on Kanter in his own game. That would be an absolutely epic Twitter war.
