By CLIFF BRUNT OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — James Harden’s shot was off, and one of the most unlikely players on Houston’s roster came to the rescue. Nene scored 28 points on perfect shooting from the field, and the Rockets beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 113-109 on Sunday to take a 3-1 lead in their first-round playoff series. The 6-foot-11 center from Brazil made all 12 of his shots and had 10 rebounds.
