Rockets’ James Harden ready to block out intense Utah Jazz home crowd: ‘I don’t worry about the fans’

HOUSTON — Heckling and trash talking from fans is nothing new to Houston Rockets star James Harden.

As the back-to-back scoring champion and reigning MVP, it certainly comes with the territory.

Although he doesn’t respond to most of it, Harden certainly notices words being said from time to time and ranks the fans at Vivint Arena as some of the most aggressive throughout the NBA.

With the Utah Jazz set to host Houston in Games 3 and 4 of the first round series, the games will be played on Saturday, April 20, and Monday, April 22, at 8:30 p.
