ZTAY reacts to Lakers vs Nuggets Game 2...

[@riedud]

Nuggets fan here, I know that was a tough watch but damn, you're the best play-by-play caller bro. Mad respect for you and your honest input all things basketball. Subscriber for life.

He's only second to that "Awful couching" guy.

[@matthewungar2138]

100% agree. Love the breakdowns. And maybe you can call the lakers and ask them if an assistant coaching position is open for game 3, cause they need it.

[@mattreynolds612]

💯 Nuggets fan, loyal to Ztay's reviews. He's very good at a young age and has a personality! It's good 💩 ⛏️🏀🏆✌️

[@mattreynolds612]

​@@1234jokerboythe awful coaching dude is Fire. Like if Sam Kinison coached hoops.

It's EXACTLY how us Nuggets fan felt when Kobe was playing. R.I.P to the Mamba. ❤️🥺

[@piplonf8591]

Bro tryna make laker fans feel better 😂 this is crazy that’s how bad it’s getting for the lakers

[@rozinbars7988]

@@piplonf8591 lmaooo. No cap bro. Ive never seen anything like it.

[@CoreyScott]

... and how we're feeling after last night.

[@rozinbars7988]

@@CoreyScott Honestly not surprised because of how they performed against the Lakers.... Just barely scraped by.. not having any sort of intensity until it mattered. Its brutal to see that continue in a series against an insanely talented squad in the Wolves. Woes aside.. the Wolves are playing some of the best defense I have ever seen in my time of watching basketball. They knew what they was doing in prepping for what the nuggets had brewing these past few years. Im all for a rivarly. This will definitely stir the pot in regards to that. 🤣

[@rozinbars7988]

This is the only lakers fan I got respect for

[@bridgernelson7817]

facts! dude just appreciates basketball and i love it 🙌

[@Nonchalluminati]

The only Lakers fan i respect.

[@timooryasen3540]

This was an absolute cinema😭 from Lebron missing an open 3 to win the game to Murray winning it shooting over AD that shit was amazing 🔥🔥

[@ak47alice]

LOVE how you talk basketball, sorry for your Lakers lost. But you still review the GAME! Mad respect for you

[@ColbyCheeser]

Insane ending!!! Ztay should be on the Lakers coaching staff. For real.

[@randomhandle07]

No cap. Not even lakers fan...but Darwin sucks ass

[@gabegodard5057]

As a nuggets fan, I love the breakdowns. Ur channel is great. Mad respect for making this video. My TV would’ve been shattered. Thanks for the fire content

[@FloridaMan___]

You one of the few real ones in laker nation. Salute to you my guy 🤝

[@xXflokenzXx]

The Murray buzzer beater over AD was the basketball gods dishing out karma to AD for complaining about not getting DPOY earlier today

[@TheRbruin10]

WOW. Just WOW. Murray showed up right at the buzzard. As a neutral fan I enjoyed this game a lot. Both teams gave us an exciting match

[@mondgreen3075]

Ztay the only laker fan I don’t like seeing upset after Ls 😭😭😭

[@bancalol]

You are solid lil red. Still made this vid so fast even after that tough loss. Props to you.

[@pianielmdk]

This must have been tough to make, sorry Ztay 😢

[@CoreyScott]

@ZTAY as a Nuggets fan, I can't lie. My instinct was to go straight to Twitter and see what Lakers fans who called this one early were saying. But I can't be nasty about it because I know this is a soul crushing moment for Lakers fans, and my second thought was, "damn, how's Z holding up?" And I come here, and as always, you're doing nothing but keeping it real. Smart, honest, entertaining analysis. Throwing props and respect to everyone on both teams who deserved it, calling out mistakes on both sides, and ultimately just promoting good basketball. This is what the phrase "keeping it real" means. And at the end, reminding people not to be shitty to each other. Props man. I'm enjoying our moment but I'm sorry you're feeling the sting, and I'll be watching your channel and loving your content as long as you keep making this stuff.

[@mccoolxparadox7625]

As a nugget fan I love your content and you definitely have my sub

[@nezzyJr]

I'm really surprised you made this video tonight, I was expecting it tomorrow. Won't lie, was definitely rooting against y'all, but I can absolutely empathize.

[@ryanmcom]

I was waiting for this lol. Must have been hard to make so kudos for doing it brother

[@mfbobyle6771]

Ha respect bro. True fans watch it live. It’s funny seeing people raging over their team loosing, but I respect when a fan watches live and doesn’t prioritize content and reactions

[@rayrichard4665]

Unbelievable game, I was expecting it to go into overtime and the lakers pull it out. I’ve never seen a team shrink a lead down like the nuggets without shooting continuous 3’s. The nuggets may go down in history

[@soldado5538]

Respect for making this vid as a nuggets fan this series not over Lakers are tuff

[@danielbanks4228]

U seem like a nice guy but be real y’all own them and they are done Jamal hasn’t even played good these first 2 games he’s gonna turn it up and y’all are sweeping them again

[@nadrok3235]

Jamal Murray is so underrated god daym

[@petrmarek6397]

Nuggets fan-mad respect for you,I still know very well how I felt after AD's shot in the bubble...Enjoyed your reacts as Always,you're the best one to analýze the game!👍

[@deljs6]

If it makes u feel better. Jamal LOVED Kobe so so much... he does have a little Mamba in him❤

[@DAFR2849]

I love seeing Lakers fans cry 🤣🤣

[@_clownworld]

Even the refs bailing out LeAntiGoat can’t save the lakers. Trade LeQueen get AD some help

[@xannith9533]

Hang in there Z. Lakers been killing the nuggets for last 40 years of my life. It feels good to finally go on a run and give a little back. Lakers will rise again, everyone wants to play for them.

[@jadedlynx]

Yep, that's exactly how it felt to go up against Kobe

[@jamirlewis1406]

I feel you ztay 😔🫡

As a Nuggets fan and a HUGE KOBE fan this is good stuff. You actually know basketball! That is appreciated!

[@Zero_Steel]

I pray for your wellbeing Red, I know that Buzzer Beater is demoralizing

[@TH3_123]

As a nuggets fan, I’m sorry Z-Tay. Y’all couldn’t of played a better game combined with Denver playing their worst game, and it wasn’t enough. I hope y’all make it interesting, just don’t know where the Lakers go from here. Great commentary!

[@heraldfbubhEO21]

The way anthony davis fell into the nuggets bench celebration after the last shot 😂

[@karlirl8331]

I feel that pain. As a european fan, I have witnessed with my own eyes live in the arena how my team on multiple occasions blew 17, 19, 20, 22 points leads. Some of them in the fourth quarter. There literally was a game when we had like 15 point lead in the end of 3rd and lost to a buzzer by a guy who during his 20 minutes recorded, and I kid you not, 0 points, 0 fg attempts 0 assists, 0 rebounds, literally 0 in every category, and decided to throw up a one legged floater from three to win the title.

[@user-adanski42475]

that shot by Murray was insane. but how you guys blow a 20 point lead with ad lebron and d lo playing good. I thought yall had it

[@holyghost8467]

Their coach darvin scam lol he has no game management putting in weak ass lineups and not calling timeouts when nuggets went in a scoring run

[@JG-mg3if]

Not a laker fan but feel bad for my guy. Specially since he show so much love to my boy Wemby..

[@al_ns4930]

hehe....I expected 101% you to skip today's edition, this is hard to swallow, but respect to you!! a meaningful and dynamic ride through the match as always!!

[@jlr3739]

Nuggets fan here. Jamal was driving me CRAZY throughout the whole game with the bizarre shots he was settling for with his teammates wide open, but then he went crazy in the 4th, won us the game and shut me right up. Sometimes he’s frustrating to watch, but he’s also an unbelievable player. AD was looking unstoppable in the first half. Crazy game.

[@wassupsal]

I'm not even a Lakers fan bro but watching this hurt, when MPJ hit that 3 to tie after Brons dunk it felt like a dagger to the chest. They played the best basketball I've seen but like you said that 3rd quarter once again was awful. Great breakdown bro congrats on 10k!!

[@drippington7967]

Great analysis. Great Passion. Great content. Agree with your Ham complaint. Thanks for your reacts. Go Nuggets

[@Dr.Zoidberg_2914]

[@Mr.NathanFritz]

7:56 Nah that's more of a Take foul than a flagrant. KCP really wants to stop him getting a basket and has no other intentions.

[@michaellockhart6632]

I left my Lakers friends with three plus minutes left and I just had to hope that the Lakers would hang on for the steal of game two. I couldn't stay because I didn't want to be there if they lost, they will talk about my Suns. I really want the LA/Phx second round matchup and I think that is the reason why it's going to be Den/Minn.

[@CashMoney5280]

This game ripped all the lakers fans hearts outta their chest 😈 Nuggets in 4️⃣ 🧹🧹🧹🧹

[@chr0nicbacon719]

As a life long nuggets fan, I will tell you that yes, yes that is exactly how we felt during Kobe’s reign

[@MHHustle]

Suns fan over here, but bro I feel so bad for you. That was a tough way to lose. We may both end up licking our wounds after this round…

[@ryananderson3536]

I think the reason we Nuggets fans are just excited is because we're finally getting a taste of the level of success that your Lakers have had for a long time.

Ztay, this is how it’s felt to be any fan of anyone other than the lakers for all those champion, Kobe years!!! Thanks for recognizing, bless!!!

[@patrickfriedauer4259]

Just found your channel a few weeks ago. Mad respect to you for doing this after such a tough loss. As a Nuggets fan I have to confirm that is exactly how we felt with Kobe. Especially in ‘09 losing in the WCF with Melo. Full admission hockey is my main sport but I grew up in Denver and have watched the Nuggets going all the way back to Kiki Vanderweghe and Alex English. But with all those years my basketball knowledge is pretty basic. Your breakdowns are so informative and fun. I’m learning a lot about the technical aspect of the game from you and really enjoy it. Plus your enthusiasm makes it fun to watch. Us Nuggets fans who are natives have been rooting for an also ran for so many decades, please forgive those who are a little to exuberant getting the monkey of out back while we enjoy a truly special group of guys. This is way more than I planned to say, I guess your rants inspired me. Keep up the great work and I’ll keep watching you.

[@anthonysloan2620]

YO man, AD falling at the end into the whole Nuggets bench, while having the shot made on him, is crazy. Thats low key worse than the Ty Lou, AI walkover.

[@ArsPicentia]

lakers until third quarter: OMG we're playing perfect basketball, we are ahead of 20, we believe in ourself, mentality reborn we can get throu the series and get the finals! lakers 3rd quarter: we miss thre shots in a row, Nuggets passed from -20 to -13, we're cursed, fear incoming (vietnam noises and flashback arise) 4th quarter: jamal - i'll show that i sucked the whole game just to end witha floater on ad head on the buzzer to destroy their mental.

[@hachimlamrhari856]

The NBA gotta hire you for a commentator Job

[@jacool69]

As spurs fan. This probably hurt as much as Manu fouling Dirk in 2006 game 7 Conf semis. Still can't watch that game.

it takes a real man to react to a game like this again I wouldn’t be on social media or anything for a week. Props to u bro keep up the work road to 20kk subs!!

[@andrewkelley9328]

Nuggets fan here. You nailed why our fan base loves beating the lakers. You are a class act. Subscribed to a lakers fan now. Never would of thought it could happen. Kudos

[@sinisasisarica2812]

As a Nuggets fan, I wanna say a couple of things. First, it's a shame this is a first round matchup, people keep clowning on the Lakers for the 7 seed, but in reality, they're one of the best teams in the league when it comes to playoffs, I firmly believe that. Secondly, the whole 'who's your daddy' thing is tasteless and is just like inviting bad karma to bite you in the ass. Respect of opponents and yourself is important, keep it classy just like the players do. Lastly, we might be 2:0 up, but both games were hard honestly and this was our home court. We haven't won shit yet, so let's just get the job done and there will be time to celebrate after. Great series so far, sorry for the heartbreak Lakers fans and Ztay!

[@ItzTjones7334]

That’s an extremely tuff loss yea lakers might need to give you a contract 👍🏾👍🏾

[@alfasiger4178]

[@omimg]

[@razzo086]

This was a really good game I wasn’t expecting Murray to hit that buzzer beater, I thought it would go to overtime

[@HUGEPoWERFULMooN]

Unbelievable moral victory here. You could see the moral skyrocketing as they blew the 20 point lead into a game winning shot moral win.

[@JB-jg8rr]

As a Nuggets fan, I feel lucky that Vando isn’t playing. He would do a lot better job on Jokic than Hachimura and that would allow AD to roam. Would add a totally different dynamic to this series

[@Thehughesgaming]

The comparison to Kobe vs Denver was perfect

[@arnodil5325]

Dang, Lakers were up by 20, the Nuggets curse is real 💀 They probably would have had better chances against OKC, that win against Pelicans was a poisoned gift.

[@ColoradoRay]

You're right. The 2009 WCF is how this felt for Nuggs fans when Ariza stole the back to back in-bounds

[@stevetrowell3062]

After watching a few of your reactions/ game breakdowns I had to subscribe. As a "Old Head" that grew up watching Magic, Bird, Jordan, Kareem, Dr.J and well im sure you know the list. I wasn't sure what to expect from such a young guy, that being said your knowledge of the game blew my mind. Maybe you should be Coaching the Lakers, seriously.... Anyway great job kid!!! Looking forward to more of your reactions/game breakdowns.

[@joshuahansen9695]

ZTay thanks for the mamba compliment to Jamal Murray but as a nugget fan one when Kobe was cooking us I was surprisingly optimistic the entire series after the losses I was happy my team put up a good effort so most of us won't give you a hard time your team played great also keep the content coming plz
