The Oklahoma City Thunder have one mission, and that's to win an NBA championship for the team, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. It's fair to say they've struggled, coming up short in past years, but they believe they can do it this season. Only if Westbrook forgets his recent engagement to Nina Earl. Reports began to surface, suggesting that he's trying to out-do Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union and their wedding, instead of focusing on outdoing him on the basketball court. Rumours have also suggested they're willing to trade him for the right asset. Will he get his head down and focus, or will he and Nina be looking for a new home?

If Thunder coach Scott Brooks has any say on any possible trade, it's likely he will remain an OKC player.

"I believe Russell is the best point guard in basketball, he explained. "That's happened over time. I've seen Russell every practice, every game, every film session, and he's really put a lot of time into being the best point guard in basketball."

Westbrook is still as confident as ever, saying, "I've felt that since I got in the league. I mean, that's my mindset. As a rookie, I came in and I felt like I was the best player on the floor every time I stepped on the floor. That's just my mindset. That's the way I've played since college. It's not just this year or last year. It's how I think when I get on the basketball floor."

Will Westbrook prove his worth on the court, and will he not allow his wedding planning to influence his title push, or will he be traded before long?
