Report: Warriors contact Turner over Shaq's coverage of McGee

The on-going feud between JaVale McGee and Shaquille O'Neal is now being handled by their respective bosses.

The Golden State Warriors contacted Turner to initiate a discussion of O'Neal's ongoing belittling of McGee on "Inside the NBA," sources told Chris Haynes and Marc Stein of ESPN.

The Warriors argue that the slanted coverage of McGee is damaging his reputation - a point echoed by head coach Steve Kerr during Friday's shootaround. A source told ESPN that the issue is being discussed internally.

McGee and Shaq traded blows on Twitter late Thursday night after TNT aired a heavily-produced segment poking fun at McGee's many mistakes over the years.
