Naji Marshall Highlights - Signs with the Dallas Mavericks! 

a steal ??? another bench player to the SF position? because DJJ is gone and he is the only one at that spot..so MAVS will have a 7 PPG player who shoots 38% from 3 and 44% on open shoots thats not enough for a team that wants to win a TITTLE...

@@onlyfacts3178yes a steal lol, he will double his minutes with the mavs and that will easily inflate his stats, adding the fact he now has the luka effect in his favor

@@onlyfacts3178 You don't know or understand ball at all brother

@@DoPtRiGGa no..i dont..i just got a lot of money because at the beggining of the season i bet on CELTICS winning the TITLE. JOKIC the MVP / GOBERT the DPOY / WEMBY ROY and i bet that OKC was going to be a TOP 5 team in the WEST... Imagen not knowing a thing about basketball and getting a lot of money on bets..

@@jnthnmrry quantity isnt the same as quality... HE will get higher FG% due to the fact that he is going to play with LUKA who is NBA player who creates more open shoots to his teammates ( 5 more than Haliburton) but that doesnt mean they are good. LOOK at the game were KYRIE and LUKA didnt play against OKC during regular season. ALL MAVS shooters were shooting under 30%.

eh, 31% 3pt shooter, same as DJJ but he wont be catching lobs like DJJ did.

@@quetz6335he shot 39% from 3

@@phuture9830on very low volume shooting, real % will be lower with more attempts per game

@@quetz6335he shot nearly 39% from three and you can see he’s comfortable from the corner, which the Mavs need. He also can attack close outs pretty well

​@@phuture9830shot 39% from 3 last year. Lobs don't win shit in the NBA. He will probably average 40% percent or better with Dallas. He can create more offensively than DJJ and most importantly he's not built like a twig he's actually very strong. I've seen his defense he's way more aggressive than DJJ. 55 got bullied by Bostons guards. If they couldn't get past him they would just move him out of the way because he lacks size.

So true. DJJ and even PJ. Reminded me of DFS. Everytime they drive. It's cringe worthy.

He will end up starting if they don't sign Klay.

He will Start

@@bondinho6114Obviously, he’s just saying he’s going to step up his game from being a bench player for the Pels’. To being a key piece for the Mavs.

@@seppuku- ahhh yeaaah just understood

calling a player that shoots 38% a sniper LOL

He shot 39% from 3. That is 3% above league average. He also wasnt playing with really any great playmakers to get him a lot of open 3s, like he will with luka and kyrie. Hes a very good 3pt shooter.

@@onlyfacts3178he’ll shoot 40%+ with luka

@@carterwilliams3970 and FG% also dont tell the entire story. MOST of his shoots were uncontested and assisted.. MEANING he isnt really a good shooter. HE cant even shoot 35% from the left corner. HE will have a higher FG% from 3...but players like KENNARD and G.ALLEN those are really the great shooters MAVS should have signed, There is a reason why CELTICS could guard LUKA because they could leave the shooters alone...and with really great shooters around LUKA that wouldnt be possible. LAKERS got a better shooter from the DRAFT..

with decent off the dribble too

Just thought I would remind everyone 😂

@@TheMavsBlogit’s only right

@@TheMavsBlog naji is uncanny at the buzzer and desperation heaves. he hit a ton of them in college and with the pels. if you have time and are bored it might be fun to look up. i'd love to know the actual percentage. for some reason he's automatic at the buzzer. you can see a bunch just in this reel

Definitely

Definitely but naji is more versatile and better overall. Which is what our offense was lacking.

I dunno this seems like an immediate upgrade, they're very similar players except Naji looks to have a much more pure jumpshot, better handles, better vision, better passing, better finishing inside. He just doesn't have those insane flight 55 hops

@@DoPtRiGGacan he shoot freethrows

@@PeterParker-qj3lb he can, not automatic but he's like 79% FT shooter to DJJ's 70%

I think that’s a fair take. Naji will have a career year in Dallas, almost all 3&D guys do.

@@TheMavsBlog not taking anything away from Djj but playing with Kryie and Luka got him like this they got him those open 3s. Physical wise Naji is a beast. Sadly that's what DDJ lacked against Boston he had length but got pushed around. Naji gonna get a lot of open shots too and I love his energy.

@@waynegreen7634 and he actually has an offensive game in terms of getting off his own shot at all 3 levels...unlike DJJ that can only finish plays with dunks and wide open 3s every now and then. Mavs need players that can get their own shot!

@@briannoble1022 I've seen so many people say DJJ is better. There's a difference between a fan only of you're team and a fan of you're team and the NBA because I actually watch as much basketball as I can so I've seen Naji alot this year. To add what you already said he also can't finish at the rim whatsoever he does this random acrobatic layups and dunks but he can't do any of it consistently him and PJ both have issues making they're layups 😅 everyone's like DJJ is so good on defense blah blah blah. He's good obviously but against Boston he got punked man he literally got pushed out of the way. If you gotta beat Boston you need STRONG DEFENDERS that actually lift weights 😂 like you said Naji can create and finish. He shot almost 40% from 3 last season. He plays damn good defense and will put up better numbers than DJJ. I love DJJ but man he's gonna struggle at the clippers when he realizes it different than he's used to. They gonna expect a lot out of him.

No hate to DJJ but he has always been a bag chaser, he knew other teams would be able to offer him more than the Mavs so he went for it

But he only got 3 mil more than what the Mavs gave Naji..he could have gotten that with the Mavs too

It's that shady Rich Paul who's doing anything to "weaken" LeBron's toughest competition. First KCP then DJJ.

​@@ashamsthomas2490it's because DJJ changed agents, the Mavs needs to wait 15 days before they can negotiate with DJJ for a new contract

It was DJJ's fault he switched agents from Aaron Turner to Rich Paul this causes friction with The Mavs as they have to wait along with other teams 15 days (which will be July 11) to get signed. He can't officially make an agreement till then and The Mavs weren't willing to wait so they signed Marshall who I think has more upside!

He is a very good and strong defender but maybe not as quick as djj but also wont get bullied as much by someone like brown or tatum.

@@carterwilliams3970 Yup he's much stronger

he did it a lot for the pels. more than you'd think. he guarded steph, kyrie, lebron, etc. all the time. he's super long, smart, and tough. not a great vertical athlete but he's quick for his size

Thanks guys. Hope he does the same with the Mavs

Have you watched his defensive highlights? He guards players such as Shai Gilgeous, Jaylen Brown, Kyrie, etc ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mUdU7s-hPq0.htmlsi=SVEKH1ysyi4ofLdO

He can pass too, seems to have high awareness or "basketball IQ". He is going to fit perfectly

He definitely has a chance!

Offensively it's a given. He's a better shooter and shot creator. He might not be as good defensively but he's definitely a more balanced two-way player.

This is the DJJ replacement. Klay Thompson is the THJ replacement, Grimes is the Josh Green replacement. All upgrades, Nico Harrison deserves a medal

Second round? Why is that? Most fans are happy with the new trades.

There were several defensive highlights - do you have eyes? Highlights for guards and wings are usually offensive as well.

There were a couple steals and block in there. Significantly harder to find singular defensive clips fast.

He is 6‘7 ans plays small forward.

He is 6’7 220 bigger than DJJ

Listed at 6’5.75” without shoes. 7’0.75” wingspan

He 6'7 and look 6'8 wth you talking about and he not skinny.

@@sleepmoneyken9234 no he does bruh u on RU-vid talking about his height , I seen dude in person eye level he not that tall . Maybe to u cause u 5’9 🤣

Another casual with no knowledge

You clearly don’t know basketball… lol

“Ball hog Luka” is the reason why DJJ is getting 30 million dollars, dude did nothing until he had Luka and Kyrie throwing him lobs and giving him wide open shots

that ball hog made the Clipps pay DJJ $30M, dork

sounds like you’ve never once watched a mavericks game lol

Mistaken.
