If I'm not mistaken he signed for 4 million less from OKC, than he would have got from LA. I'm not positive what the difference would have been on the next deal. But for the remainder of his prime even from a money perspective it didn't make much sense either.
EDIT: A 3 year contract allows a team to acquire a players bird rights, so if I'm not mistaken the Lakers would have been able to offer him a bag like OKC will as well at the end of his current deal. Oh well. His loss.
