BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Quotes about Carlos Boozer
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.
said Kevin O’Connor

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.
said Carmelo Anthony
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.
said Dwyane Wade
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.

If I continue to grow as a player and develop, I'd like to be a player like Carlos Boozer who's able to bang, pull rebounds and mix it up a little bit ... I'm looking forward to getting to work in the gym and becoming the best player I can be.
said Richard Hendrix
They've been physical. They've been outhustling the Lakers ... And also, too, (Carlos) Boozer woke up, and Deron Williams has just been fantastic, really, his leadership. They got into their fast-break game and, so, give Utah some credit.
