It's no secret that the Golden State Warriors are not one of the most loved teams in the NBA outside of Oakland, but for their starting power forward, Draymond Green, it's still a mystery to him why he receives some boos in some cities, especially those where he doesn't have a feud with any of their players.
That is the case now in their Western Conference Semifinals matchup against the Utah Jazz, as he is being booed by the team's fans. He recently discussed during an interview after their Game 3 victory that he does not understand why that's happening to him.

The Dubs have a very talented lineup and winning against them gives their opponents a huge boost in their confidence. However, with them now leading 3-0 in the series, it can be expected that Green, as well as his teammates, will be booed even more in Game 4, as the Salt Lake City faithful will try their best to will their team to a win to avoid getting swept by the defending champions of the West.
Should the Warriors be successful in winning the matchup in only four games, the boos might carry over to next season, where not only Green, but the whole Warriors lineup can expect a loud and hostile environment every time they play inside Vivint Smart Home Arena.
