Rockets guard James Harden fine with Jazz trash talk

Rockets guard James Harden said there was an abundance of trash talk coming his way from Jazz players while he was missing his first 15 shots in Game 3. He also said, he understood and really did not mind.

"I guess they needed that to kind of fuel themselves," Harden said. "Even in the first two games, I don't really trash talk. I don't need to. I just go out there and hoop. I guess they needed to say that to get themselves going a little bit, which is cool. I understand. It doesn't affect me."
