NBA analysts and fans expected the Oklahoma City Thunder to deal Russell Westbrook in the wake of Kevin Durant's departure - with the assumption being that Westbrook would eventually bolt in free agency - but the former UCLA star will be staying in Oklahoma for another year at least after news broke that he will sign a three-year contract renegotiation.

Lakers fans had been hoping that their team could orchestrate a deal to give L.A. the star player it desperately needs following Kobe Bryant's retirement. Thunder big man Enes Kanter burned those fans on Twitter with a hilarious crying Jordan meme early Thursday morning.

Kanter is one of the biggest Twitter trolls in the NBA. He took a swipe at Kevin Durant's "betrayal" last month, and on Tuesday even roasted a former Thunder beat writer who is moving to cover the Warriors.

Noooooo ?
