"Led by bench players James Harden and Serge Ibaka, Oklahoma City raced to a 109-98 win over the banged up Detroit Pistons.Harden scored 14 points off the bench, nine in the fourth quarter, to help the Thunder build a 95-82 lead to break open a see-saw game. Ibaka scored a season-high 12 points and grabbed five rebounds.Riding a three-game losing streak entering the game - and facing a tough three-game road trip afterward - notching a win probably was more important than usual for a mid-December contest."
