No idea how to actually post the photos on this board using an iPad, but you can see the players photos on the official team twitter page:

Felton looks to have lost the weight he needed to, and so does Kurt.

No sign of Sheed, as he hasn't officially been signed. I presume that was so he didn't have to speak with the media.

Interviews with Amar'e, Melo, Felton and Kidd:

http://www.nba.com/video/channels/nba_tv/2012/10/01/amare-stoudemire-media-day-interview.nba/?ls=iref:nbahpt2

Felton's is the most interesting- good to see he looks like he did his first season with us (once he got in shape a few weeks into the season). Said he's been in the gym 2 or 3 times a day, every day- which is important as when he was with Portland he said he hated gyms and tried to avoid them.

I like Felton a lot- he's not the greatest PG, but he's solid and I like his toughness- hope he has a great season.

To be honest I wasnt thrilled that he was coming back, I wanted Nash amd then Kidd before he was signed but Felton has come back in shape and looks like he has the right attitude. Larry Brown didnt want to trade him because he said the team couldnt afford to lose his heart. High praise.

the good thing is that felton loved new york but the the only questionable thing is that he thrived under MDA.

More interviews here:

http://www.msg.com/videos/raymond-felton-at-knicks-media-day-101.html

Felton says Woodson said they'll still do some running, but also some half court stuff too- Felton said he's used to that from his days with Larry Brown

Can't wait for the season to start.

Knicks need to get off to a good start with these old guys.

Me too. I hated when the Knicks traded Oak but not nearly as much as when Layden made the Dice trade. I think Camby and Kidd will be huge and I think Kurt will be a key contributor at times.

AGE is overrated as a negative factor. It's really about the individual. Guys that keep themselves in shape tend to be able to have extended careers. If your game is predicated on skills and BB IQ that also helps to keep players effective. If you take care of your body you can definitely play as long as you like. Guys like Kidd and Camby and even KT use all the tricks of the trade and mostly their brains to play the game. Guys still have trouble posting up againt KT and Kidd is still a smart defender and master of the steal. He may not be able to guard the little quick PG's but he can guard SG and SF's at a high level.

I love the way all the Knicks were talking. You could tell that this team is mature and ready to win. They weren't overly confident and bragging. Just resolute in what they know they can do and how hard they have to work. I'm a firm believer in having guys that know what it takes to win. Kidd is a very good addition cuz he's got a winning mentality. The same goes for all the guys we brought in.

Loved seeing Camby in a Knick Uni again. Felton looked great and so did Kidd. STAT and Melo look Unbelievable compared to last year. Just gotta get Ronnie and Shump healthy. I really like this team. It has a lot of really good elements. Of course it's not perfect, but it's a good team.

KT's eyes are as crazy as ever. I''m loving this! Bring back Ewing, Starks & Oak to fill out the bench and we are set!

its more about role than anything not age. Just gotta pray nothing happens to Melo/Amare. Melo and especially Amare are in incredible shape

Thing we have to remember is that Kidd doesn't play a very high wire game. He stays on the ground and doesn't really drive a lot either. He stays back, so he never really has to go hard except on D, which he uses his size and quick hands along with great defensive instincts. Camby has learned how to play under control over the years and with reduced minutes he should be able to go hard and not worry about wearing himself down.

I think this team is set up just right for a strong season and playoffs. Our rotation guys aren't over the hill and our older bench guys are gonna have reduced roles to keep them from having to go hard all year. I'm excited about this team and can't wait to see some game action.

I don't know what Jonah Ballow said to him, but Kurt looks like he's ready to strangle him with his own small intestine.

I agree, but to be fair you could say the same about Lin too.

Apparantly, according to a Blazer writer, Felton weighed in a few days ago at 207 lb's, down 20 lbs at the start of last season.

i would have liked to have both lin and felton here. I was always a felton fan and though getting rid of him in the melo deal was bad
