Tyler Herro had a confident answer when asked about a scuffle between him and Houston Rockets guard Ame Thompson.

The Miami Heat star said Thompson was upset that Herro was having such a good game as the Rockets lost 104-100. Herro had 27 points and nine assists in the win.

"Just two competitors going at it, playing basketball," Herro said. "...Just a physical game. Guess that's what happens when someone's scoring, throwing dimes, doing the whole thing. I'd get mad too."

The fight occurred with just 35 seconds left in the game when Miami led 99-94.
