We've had some conversations with him (Boozer) about it ... And, look: As far as I'm concerned, I feel Carlos wants to be here. And as far as we're concerned we certainly want him to be here, and then we're going to address it accordingly.

As kids, we played with the same rusty playground equipment Carlos Boozer used back in the day
Now that I look back at the ’04 experience, it was a blessing to myself ... LeBron, Dwyane and also Carlos Boozer, we were at America’s lowest point in ’04 … and now we’re sitting here because we did a hell of a job putting American basketball back where it’s supposed to be, which is at the top of the world.
You know, a lot of the reaction to that team in 2004 was unfair ... That ’04 was a team that was put together because other people didn’t want to go. You had to ask certain younger guys like myself, LeBron, Carmelo, Carlos Boozer onto the team. It was just a team that we thought we were going to go over there to Greece and win. This team knows we have a very tough task. But we also understand that we have the ability and talent to win.
With Shawn Marion and the Heat expected to resume contract talks shortly, several teams including the (Los Angeles) Clippers and Golden State have expressed an interest in acquiring him. The issue, though, will be whether any offers will be more appealing than keeping Marion long-term or allowing his deal to expire next summer to sign Utah's Carlos Boozer.
I'm in great shape ... I'm looking forward to this season. I think we have a team that can do some great things. I'll be interested to watch how the guys perform tonight and get back out there with them as soon as I can.
