Boston fans were cursing Draymond Green all night, especially after his unnecessary behavior on the court.

In the second quarter, the GSW forward got into a scuffle with Grant Williams after an illegal screen. Green fell to the floor in dramatic fashion after colliding with Williams. Then he and Williams exchanged words and had to be separated.

Later on, Green grabbed Jayson Tatum on the neck while fighting for position under the basket, while avoiding the foul. These episodes provoked a harsh reaction from the stands.

Steve Kerr reacted to the crowd chanting "F*ck you Draymond" after Game 3.

"Classy. Very classy," the American specialist responded when asked about the chants.

Klay Thompson reiterated his coach's words: [The crowd] was not a factor. We played in front of rude people before, dropping F-bombs with children in the crowd. Real classy. Good job, Boston."

Green himself recorded just two points, four rebounds, and three assists before fouling out in the fourth quarter. He was brutally honest in his assessment. When asked how he felt he played, Green responded, "Like sh*t."
