Keisei Tominaga - Nebraska

[RutgersClassof2004]

He can go for 30 beyond arc. Very dangerous Nebraska player. Get ready if you've never seen him. Gonna beat Wisconsin.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Nebby is tough at home. Hopefully it doesn't carry over to next week.

 

[Scangg]

Tominaga has been great lately but he's about to see Caleb. Subpar game almost a lock

 

[shields]

Yeah have to guard him well.

 

[RUPete]

He moves constantly without the ball and gets looks both outside and at the rim. A major PITA to play against, but you probably love him if he’s on your team.

 

[bac2therac]

don't be fooled, Nebraska is not good.

 

[FinalFourOrBust_rivals142702]

Rutgers covers the 10 point spread just like they always do at home

 

[rufeelinit]

Well that should help make sure we don't overlook them this week.

Masterful player. Cam can take a lesson.

Kid is a problem

 

[shields]

Would like to trap the kid in the press.

Our offense is a mess and there’s a huge drop off on D without Mag.
I’m worried about our team

 

[G- RUnit]

He’s a Princeton player. We should post up on offense and tire him out. Watch cut backs and back doors. Caleb has to be on A game as he doesn’t need much room.

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

If Tominaga shoots lights out and we lose to Nebby, season probably over.

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Cam won't be able to guard him. Or Paul. Too fast.

I expect Caleb will guard him. It's what makes Caleb so valuable

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Keisei Tominaga, last three games: 25.3 points per game 60.4% shooting 48.3% from three

 

[Scangg]

15 max against Caleb at the RAC

 

[scarletknight077]

We need 2 wins in the last 6 to likely punch our ticket to the tournament. Even a loss to nebreska while not good, we still have NW, Michigan, Minnesota, penn state, Wisconsin left. All winnable games

 

[G- RUnit]

But he can’t cover either…

Agree with this.

Caleb, Simpson even Miller will see time against him

 

[RUBlackout]

I would think he will have to play defense against us and whoever he is guarding should be backing him down into the post all day long--make him work on that side of the floor to tire his legs which will impact his shooting(Just ask Caleb)

If we lose to Nebraska we are in big trouble

The gloom and doom is taking over your mindset again.

Have you ever not been worried about our team?

 

[BillyC80]

Tominaga is an energizer bunny that never stops moving, has a very quick release and is a lefty. A tough guard for anyone including Caleb.

 

[fatsam98]

He also can't play defense. It was comical watching him attempt to guard Paul at the RAC last year.

Exactly...take him to the basket by backing him down and make him work.

Good chance he doesn’t even get double figures…unless the game is out of reach. He’s not that good.

 

[JudgeSmails56]

The way we guard the 3 he’ll go for 45.

 

[jordkap]

The guy is like 150 pounds. I assume he guards Cam or Paul which means it’s A lock that they score in bunches

 

[scarletnewyorker2006]

He doesn’t play defense well. He’s short. Whoever he guards will have a big day on offense. He also takes many stupid shots (and makes some of them).

It’s been said a lot but wish we did this with Cam.
That kid was non stop tonight.
How many times do you hear an announcer say “he lost McConnell” about a player?

Get Cam moving and just let him catch and shoot.

 

[Scangg]

His off ball movement is excellent

Seeing a lot of posts like this so far this year re Caleb but he’s been having a pretty bad year all the way around.

That requires drawing up offensive plays. Have you seen that at Rutgers in the last decade?

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

I was right on this too. Called it.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

I definitely underestimated him…and I way overestimated Caleb. I know better now.

And Miller attempting to guard him was comical.

 

[Duff366]

Just so hard to guard, constantly moving. There was an inexplicable 5 minute period in the 2nd half where he went off when Caleb was on the bench.

seemed like much of his movement wasn't plays, more like motion principles - we simple don't have the personnel for that.

Yea he lit it up with Caleb on the bench

His off ball movement and screens set get him open looks or get him the ball with defender trailing going over screens
