Golden State’s Draymond Green loves being the center of attention and that’s one of the reasons why away games are always a must-see.
That was no different in Game 3 as the Warriors went on the road to take on the Utah Jazz in the Western Conference semifinals.
After picking up his third foul early in the first half, Jazz fans made sure he heard all about it as he walked to the end of the bench. But before he sat down, Green taunted fans in the process as he held up two fingers and then no fingers, signaling the Warriors’ 2-0 series lead at the time.

That, of course, sparked one jazz fan to bring a sign to Game 4 on Monday which read, “Draymond Flop Count.”
So after the Warriors knocked the Jazz out of the playoffs with a series sweep in Game 4, the two-time All-Star made sure to get one last laugh as he trolled the troll in one of the most epic ways. As he was headed to the locker room, the fan held out a sharpie to which Green smiled, before signing his poster.
Golden State and the Utah Jazz sure had a lot of fun this series after several Warrior players said they wanted to face the Los Angeles Clippers because of the lack of “nightlife” in Salt Lake City.
Utah was sure listening as Jazz President Steve Starks posted on Twitter a picture of new T-shirts fans could buy with the words “#Nightlife” printed on the chest. But it was all for a good cause as the proceeds went to cancer research.
