ut that the two havent spoken since before Duran

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- After an emotional 20-19 win at No. 16 Miami last Saturday, Florida State coach Jimbo Fishers main focus this week is seeing if his team can carry that momentum through the rest of the season.As the 14th-ranked Seminoles began preparations on Monday for this weeks game against Wake Forest, Fisher said it was critical this week for his players to avoid suffering from relief syndrome after defeating their in-state rival for the seventh straight year.It was big for your confidence, but I understand -- again, at the end of the day it was still only one football game, Fisher said. Weve got six more to play.Fisher said he considers the Demon Deacons to be a more critical test because of the possibility for a letdown. Wake though is 5-1 for the first time in 10 years after its 28-9 win over Syracuse . The Seminoles (4-2, 1-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) won last years game 24-16 but needed an interception in the end zone during the games final minute to preserve the victory.Including Wake, which is 2-1 in league play, FSUs first six Football Bowl Subdivision opponents have a combined record of 25-8.Florida State is hoping that last weeks performance on defense can carry through the rest of the season.The front seven had its best game since the second half of the opener against Mississippi as it held the Hurricanes to a season-low 62 yards rushing and was able to get consistent pressure on quarterback Brad Kaaya. The defense had struggled against up-tempo offenses for most of the season but did a better job against Miami in not getting confused and playing out of position.Defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi had a season-high seven tackles and a sack. The senior has been dealing with an ankle injury for most of the season but appears to be finally healthy.Fisher though, isnt about to let the defense rest on its laurels.We played one good game, all of a sudden its not flowers are blooming and everything is rosy and everything is good, Fisher said. Youve got to do it again this week because this is a different scheme, a different alignment, youve got to get your mind focused on what youve got, eliminate the clutter and do it again. Hopefully weve learned some lessons and were mature enough to go that way.A concern going into the week is the health of quarterback Deondre Francois. The freshman was looked at twice by trainers during the Miami game but played all but one series. Fisher did say he was concerned about some of the hits Francois took after throwing the ball on a couple plays and would ask the conference to review the hits.Hell take some nasty ones at times, and a couple of them, like I say, shouldnt have been there, Fisher said. If you cant do that and play quarterback, you cant play. That goes with the job description.Francois though is not expected to miss any practice time this week. Despite being under pressure often, Francois has not thrown an interception or committed a turnover in the past three games.The Seminoles are also hoping that this week is a little less hectic than the previous two. Fisher has likened the roller coaster of the past two games -- a 36-34 loss to North Carolina on the last play and the win over Miami -- to his first season in 2010, when FSU lost to North Carolina and North Carolina State in consecutive weeks.

OKLAHOMA CITY -- A month after Kevin Durant bolted for Golden State, star guard Russell Westbrook signed a contract extension to stay in Oklahoma City.The team confirmed Thursday that Westbrook signed the extension. A person with direct knowledge of the terms said the two sides agreed on a new three-year deal worth $85.7 million. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team did not release terms.After the announcement, the team feted Westbrook on Thursday afternoon during an event that was part pep rally and part press conference. He exited a vehicle on a street in front of Chesapeake Energy Arena and briefly addressed a crowd of about 1,500 people outside before entering the arena lobby, where highlights of Westbrooks eight-year career with the Thunder were played on a big screen hung from the ceiling.Westbrook said people -- specifically in the Thunder organization and generally in Oklahoma City -- convinced him that staying with the only franchise hes ever known was the correct decision.Me being able to come back here is a true blessing, Westbrook said. There is nowhere else Id rather be than Oklahoma City. You guys have basically kind of raised me. Ive been here since I was 18, 19 years old and you guys have done nothing but great things for me. ... I definitely wanted to have an opportunity to be loyal to you guys.The 27-year-old Westbrook is one of the top stars in the NBA and piled up 18 triple-doubles last season, tying Magic Johnson for the most in the last 30 years. The five-time All-Star averaged 23.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 10.4 assists last season and helped the Thunder reach the Western Conference finals, where the lost a 3-1 series lead and fell in seven games to Golden State.For his entire career, Westbrook had been paired with fellow superstar Durant and together they turned Oklahoma City into an NBA title contender. The Thunder reached the conference finals four of the past six seasons, but advanced to the NBA Finals only once, falling to the Miami Heat in 2012.Durant became a free agent at seasons end and announced July 4 that he would sign with Golden State.Westbrooks contract had been set to expire after next season and, after Durants departure -- which was unexpected by Thunder fans -- rumors swirled about Westbrooks future while he publicly remained silent. Westbrook and the Thunder answered most of those rumors Thursday.If things go poorly for Oklahoma City during the upcoming season, the length of Westbrooks new contract would seem to make him a more valuable trade piece. But for now, both he and Thunder seem to be going all in.On behalf of the Thunder organization and the entire state of Oklahoma I want to congratulate Russ and offer my sincere appreciation for not only his profound presence and skill as a player, but for his high character, personnal integrity and extraordinary leadership, team owner Clay Bennett said in a statement.dddddddddddd He attended the press conference, but did not speak to the media.General manager Sam Presti said Westbrook -- who was raised in Los Angeles and spent two seasons in college at UCLA -- ended up being a good fit for Oklahoma City.Its obviously an incredible opportunity to have a player like Russell Westbrook in your organization, not just as a player . but also as a human being and a leader, Presti said. Hes become synonymous not only with the Thunder, but also with the city and the spirit of the city. We are just overjoyed that he will continue his career and his legacy with the Thunder.Presti said Durants departure helped give the Thunder the financial flexibility to negotiate an extension with Westbrook. The third year of the new contract is a player option, meaning that Westbrook technically only extended his guaranteed stay with the Thunder by only one season, but Westbrook emphasized on several occasions Thursday that Oklahoma City was the best place for me and the best team.He said thats the reason he re-signed now and didnt wait until the end of the season and free agency.Theres no need to wait when you know where you want to be, he said. Theres no need to waste time. Im a straightforward type of guy. Ill shoot you straight.Westbrook said he learned of Durants decision to sign with Golden State the way you all found out, on the news, on cellphones, social media. I talked to Kevin ... early on in the process, but other than that, it was just a text message. Thats about it.He said he still considers Durant a friend, but that the two havent spoken since before Durants announcement. Westbrooks competitive side showed when he was asked if Durants leaving for Golden State (and not another team) made his departure sting more than it might have.Sting for who? Westbrook replied.In Rio de Janeiro, where he is part of the U.S. Olympic team, Durant said he wouldnt immediately be reaching out to Westbrook to discuss his decision to stay in Oklahoma City.Nah, thats a touchy deal, Durant said. At some point, well sit down and talk. But I dont know when.Asked if he was happy for Westbrook, Durant said he was.Im happy to see any player in this league do whatever they want to do, Durant said. Its good for him, man. Its good for his family. Its good for the people in Oklahoma City that love to watch him play and love to have him on their team. So Ive got nothing but positive energy and vibes for everybody. Ive got no beef with anybody. Theres no ill will with anybody. If he did what he wanted to do, thats better. Thats great for him.---AP Basketball Writer Jon Krawczynski contributed to this report. ' ' '
