After James Harden scored 41 points in the Houston Rockets’ Game 1 victory over the Utah Jazz, Paul Pierce sees the only option for Utah’s success.

“You got to take the ball out of his hands, you got to trap him at half court. We are witnessing one of the best one-on-one players so when he has you at the top [of the arc] and he’s doing all this dribbling, you got to run another trap at him.”

“Obviously [their style] didn’t work in the regular season and it didn’t look close [in Game 1]. The game is about adjustments.”

We will see if the Jazz can collect their first win over the Rockets this season when they square off tomorrow night.
