Lee: I'm feeling good. I've spent most of the summer rehabbing and getting back into shape. It's unfortunate I had to miss some time, but injuries are a part of the game, and I'm looking forward to starting the season out right. Question: What do you think about the Knicks adding Zach Randolph? Lee: I think it's going to be great for us. He's definitely tough to play against, so having him on our team is going to be a positive this year. With him and Eddy Curry, it's going to be tough for the opposition, so I am excited to get to play with him. He's going to help the team out a lot. Question: What was it like to get to play on the U.S. Select Team that worked with Team USA over the summer? Lee: It was really good. It was an awesome experience to get the chance to go out there against some great competition for a week. It was great to be out there with those guys, and personally, I was able to get some good scrimmages in, so it was nice to be part of something really special with Team USA. Question: What were your thoughts on how the team performed during the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas? Lee: I thought the rookies looked great. I thought Demetris Nichols played well, and that Wilson Chandler looked good as well. I think that Renaldo (Balkman) and Nate (Robinson) of course did well, but we knew they were going to. I think it just goes back to Isiah (Thomas) and the rest of our staff doing a great job in the last couple of drafts. Once again, our draft picks look like they're really going to help us. Question: How did it feel to become such a fan favorite last year? Lee: It was great. In New York, everyone always talks about how tough it can be with the crowd, but I just go out there and give it my best effort night in and night out, and I think the fans respect that. Question: What are you working on to add to your game for the coming season? Lee: I'm still continuing to work on my jump shot, especially that 12- to 15-footer. I'm also continuing to work on my ball-handling, but for the most part, I am planning on coming into training camp in the best shape of my life and being ready to go. </div> <div align="center">NYKnicks.com</div>
