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.

Clinton's endorsement of Obama in a speech at the National Building Museum marked the beginning of efforts to reunite the Democratic Party after a long and divisive campaign battle that ended on Tuesday when Obama won the support of enough delegates to clinch the nomination.

Quotes about Kelenna Azubuike
The problem is when we played against that team last year, I couldn't put Josh on Jackson because I needed him to guard Jason Richardson ... Now, since they lost Richardson, Dirk has somebody to guard, whether it's [Kelenna] Azubuike or [Al] Harrington. Now Josh can try to put out Jackson, which we couldn't do last year because they were so small.
said Avery Johnson
If there's a guy that we feel could walk in and catch on (then maybe) ... But we've got guys right now that are doing well, like Brandan Wright and Kelenna Azubuike.

Quotes from articles mentioning Kelenna Azubuike
We fought hard today ... We just had some breakdowns at the end. But if a couple of free throws go down, this game is ours.

We understood going into this game, being 0-3 on the road, we wanted to prove that we could win on the road ... That is the kind of balance that we need to have and show night in and night out.

We got some stops and got the ball out quickly ... We knew if we got some stops like we did in Memphis (on Monday) that we would be able to run on them and get some easy baskets. I felt that rebounding would be a key, which we were significantly a plus at 55 to 41.

Great finish ... I though we got off to a rocky start. That is a great team over there, they got so many different lineups that can really confuse you and I give a lot of credit to our guys for sticking to it.
said Byron Scott
We competed, we played well for our first game ... I'm happy with it. I'm not happy about losing but I'm happy with our effort.
