Goran Dragic got tech after slapping the back of Ben Simmons' head

Things got heated in the third quarter of Game 5 of the 76ers vs. Heat first-round series. After Ben Simmons stole the ball off a pass by Goran Dragic and started dribbling down the court, Dragic swung at Simmons' head and wound up slapping him.

Simmons reacted by touching the back of his head and walking away, while his Sixers teammates immediately went to confront the officials. Dragic was given a personal foul and technical foul. At the time, Philly had a 50-48 lead - the squad went on to win, 104-91, and advance to the second round.

Simmons looked annoyed, but it's good that the young star didn't let his emotions get the best of him. It led to a nice little third-quarter run for them. Philadelphia outscored Miami in the third to build an 80-66 lead.

Another heated moment happened in the fourth quarter with the same result (a personal foul and tech). This time, it was the Heat's James Johnson.

The Heat are heading home to start their offseason.
