Duffey's Comments:
Some other observations/notes from Saturday’s practice:
*I watched Omar Calhoun hang with Kemba Walker this summer, and Saturday only confirmed my suspicion that he might be the team’s best player.
*Leon Tolksdorf looked like a capable spot-up shooter, drilling quite a few contested 3-pointers in a 4-on-4 shell drill. His ability to stretch the floor makes him a perfect fit alongside Calhoun, Ryan Boatright and Shabazz Napier, who all figure to create open looks with penetration.

Don't like to take these preseason observations too seriously. But if Duffy's right about Omar, that bodes awfully well for us. I think we all expect Boatright and Napier to have pretty big years (partially due to necessity and partially due to them being very good players). If Omar's even better than those guys, we're going to have a significant advantage in the backcourt in almost every game we play.
