"Oh, God. You know what? Go away, Draymond. Shut up, dude. Do not play victim here. Don't play the victim here. Stop doing flagrant stuff. We're sick of it. We're sick of you doing stupid, flagrant crap on a regular basis. It's not an agenda, Draymond," McMahon said. "You get break after break after break after break, and you keep on pushing the line.

"It was not an agenda to make you look angry when you punched your teammate in the face. It was not an agenda to make you look angry when you grabbed Rudy Gobert and put him in a sleeper hold. It was not an agenda to make you look angry when you punched or smacked, or whatever you want to call it, Jusuf Nurkic upside the head."
