A pilot bearing that is starting to fail will grip the transmission input shaft that it rides on making it difficult to place in gear. Not much solution other than replacement of bearing. A clutch that is not fully disengaged will create same symptoms. Failing CSC or clutch master or air in clutch hydraulic system may fix this.
