Since the Kantergate scandal first broke in advance of the NBA trade deadline, Utah Jazz fans, media and players alike have been offering their retorts to Enes Kanter‘s verbal jabs. Up until now, Trevor Booker has led the charge in Jazz Nation’s war of words with the former No. 3 overall pick. Some would even say that his actions have soiled Kanter’s good name.

Last week, video footage surfaced of another Jazz player, Rudy Gobert, doing just that and not in the metaphorical sense.

In a clip appearing on YouTube, a Jazz fan attending a recent appearance by Gobert at a local Fanzz store, presents a basketball to the seven-foot-two Frenchman for autographing. The fan was quick to point that the ball had already been signed by Kanter and requested that the Stifle Tower sign right over the top of his signature.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Gobert responded in kind and covered the former Jazzman’s signature with his own. In other words, he quite literally soiled Kanter’s name. It was a move so epic, one must actually see it to truly appreciate its greatness:

I continue to marvel at the ways in which Gobert endears himself to the Jazz faithful. The fan who executed the whole thing deserves major props as well for making a statement in a clever way.

Is it petty? Perhaps. Should we let sleeping dogs lie and move on? Sure, just so long as Kanter is done popping off in the media. Either way, if you’re going to dis a former player, why not do it in style?

You can bank on one thing—if a certain someone continues to cast aspersions on the Jazz organization, Gobert and the Good Book are ready to do just that.
