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 Denver Nuggets
If the Denver Nuggets opened their season with a 1-17 record, people would raise serious questions about what changes needed to be made
said Brian Vincente
My family and I are excited to be going back home ... As a kid growing up in Denver, I always dreamed of winning a championship with the Nuggets. Hopefully we can make that dream a reality. I'll miss my teammates, the fans and everyone in the Pistons organization who I grew close to over the last six years. We had a great run.

I know a lot of people are saying that our defense left when Marcus Camby left ... So, I think that gives us motivation to go out there and prove to everybody that we are going to come together as a team and play defense. I'm pretty sure you guys will see a different defensive team this year from the Denver Nuggets.
said Carmelo Anthony
Denver fans did expect in the beginning for him to be the savior ... And when he didn't pan out that way (like Le-Bron James or Dwyane Wade), people started to look down on him. But you're telling a 20-year-old to be a savior. . . . I'd like to see the Nuggets pick it up this year — the whole team playing as a team, defense thing.

The Denver Nuggets are averaging 103.2 ppg while the Raptors come into tonight's match-up averaging only 92.9 ppg. So, if Denver is able to score more than 100 points tonight they will earn the W. Toronto plays at too slow of a pace to beat the Nuggets if Denver shoots a decent percentage from the field.
