Evan Turner Calls Out Goran Dragic for Hit on Marcus Smart

While the biggest storyline from the Boston Celtics‘ 98-88 victory over the Miami Heat was their comeback from a 26-point deficit, perhaps just as pivotal was a skirmish that occurred late in the third quarter.

In what seemed like a harmless play at first, the Heat's Goran Dragic and the Celtics' Marcus Smart battled for position for a potential rebound. Dragic pushed Smart beneath the hoop, with the Celtics guard appearing to over-sell the contact by falling down.

What transpired was a scene that saw both teams' benches clear, as you can see in the video below:

To no one's surprise, Smart's teammate, Evan Turner, took a verbal shot at Dragic following the game:

Evan Turner still steamed about Goran Dragic's hit on Marcus Smart end of third quarter. "That was a girl trying to be a man."

Despite Boston's miraculous comeback, the Heat still clinched the No. 3 seed due to the Atlanta Hawks‘ loss on Wednesday night.

While a playoff meeting between the two teams seems unlikely due to the Celtics' No. 5 seeding, it's a postseason matchup that certainly would not lack drama.
