Basketball Wives LA Recap: This Episode Is Brought To You By The Letter “V” and Deep, Deep Vs


I can’t tease. Because I love too much.

Sister Spice says that Matt wants out of LA and that her boys love Matt. Sister Spice says she’s not sure if she’ll move with him because of her career. Scary Sister Spice interviews that if Sister Spice is serious about her family, she should be willing to move anywhere to keep her family together.

 Real emotion. Never before seen on reality TV.

 Sorry guys… still can’t make jokes.

Scary Sister Spice says that Sister Spice came across as being more self-involved and didn’t put her family first, like she would do herself. Sister Spice said she heard and understood what she was saying, but didn’t agree with it. From where I sit, I do find Sister Spice to be a “me me me” type person, but what do I know. Matt Barnes turns out to be a bad driver with a fowl mouth, so maybe she was just in a bad place. Regardless of any of that, they hugged, tried to come up with a handshake, and said goodbye.

 Okay, the backpack blows.

Homewrecker Spice and Gangsta Spice are still working the ladies to have Gangsta Spice jumped in, and it’s time for her to meet Homewrecker Spice. I’m fairly certain that Homewrecker Spice will NOT remember this get-together until she sees it on TV because she was lit up when she walked in and didn’t stop drinking while we joined them.

 Party time!

Once they discuss who is and isn’t wearing panties they move on to briefly discuss Old Spice, but Homewrecker Spice is all “meh” about the entire thing because she’s trashed. Homewrecker Spice calls Old Spice a liar, a “manipalator”, and an old lady. She interviews that Gangsta Spice brought up the drama between Gangsta Spice and Opportunistic Spice, but in the clip, it shows Homewrecker Spice asking Gangsta Spice why she has beef with Opportunistic Spice.

 Come to momma… (Example 3: Green Nails)

 Who loves day drinkin’? THIS girl.

Gangsta Spice says that the guy Opportunistic Spice was seeing (Vernon Maklin?) liked Gangsta Spice too and was buying Gangsta Spice presents. Opportunistic Spice apparently “caught feelins” for the guy and that’s why she has a problem with Gangsta Spice (you catch a cold, but do you catch feelings?). Gangsta Spice says that if Opportunistic Spice is cool with her, she’s down. I believe her. Homewrecker Spice is seeing 2 of her (well, 2 of everything in the spinning room). Wimpy Spice may have been dreaming of cotton candy.

It's never too soon. It's never too far. And it's never the wrong time.

    Honored to be the first poster. I need to get a life! Anyway… Great job with the recap, so so so much better than the show. Yeah, Laura is growing on me and I didn’t want her to. The comic strip renderings looked nothing like Gloria. Could have been Draya, Laura, or anybody. The show stooped to a new low with the dancers. I’m so bored with these fools. Like one poster said, there’s so much potential with real story lines (Laura’s weight loss, fabulous homes, etc) but its just week after week of, meh. One more week, and I’m pretty much done with BBW-La. I hope it gets better cause I really like Draya. I hate Jackie’s psychosis. I see that crap everyday, don’t need to see it on escapism tv.

    @neecy, never get a life… Bc if you do, I might be forced to… And I totes agree about the story lines that we’d love. Laura’s weight loss is amazing. And even Draya living without her kid. And Malaysia having twins. Just insane that they think we like a bunch of lunches. Pls don’t give up on the show. I have so few commenters, I need someone to make my 5 hours of bball wives to matter. My only other fans are my nail techs and they don’t speak a word of English. (thank goodness). but they love me. (and my tips).

    I think Laura’s less fake than the rest of them. Specially if you’re grading on a curve.

    But I don’t think I realized just how much less fake till this episode. The scene you picked for her real emotion pic on page 4. That’s got another thing not seen on reality tv: A forehead that didn’t get a botox shot.

    I still think she’s prettier with some more weight on her though. If she felt too big before maybe compromise somewhere in the middle.

    Draya’s mom was on in season 1. But this is the 1st we’ve seen of her dad. I don’t even remembering her mentioning him. So for him to all of a sudden show up now. Without even any lead up scenes of Draya talking about how she’d been reaching out to him. Or wanting her baby to know him. I think you’re right. It stinks of somebody smelling some $.

    You might be right about Gloria not having much of a job before too. Didn’t she meet Matt when she was like 12 or something? And he just waited till she was legal to get her pregnant? Because it seems like last season 1 of their issues was that she hadn’t ever lived a grown up life.

    I believe Gloria is 24 and her sister isn’t much older than that.

    Mr.s Jackie is still wack a doo.

    I do hope things work out with Draya and her family.

    Laura you’re two faced It’s horrible. Jackie was wrong and you should tell the truth. Jackie has no right to talk to Draya the way she does and call her all those rude and nasty names. If you want respect you should give it. It don’t matter that you’re the grandma of the group. Laura you would not feel the same way if you were call out your name. And I think Draya can beat Jackie

    i agree that jackie treated draya v poorly. it was out of line. but jackie didn’t really call her a lot of rude and nasty names… she just kept repeating the same one over and over and over again… I haven’t watched last night’s episode yet, bc i am travelling; but i will be recapping it tonight and tomorrow.

    i agree that i think draya could take jackie. jackie may be bigger, but draya looks like she’s handled herself in a girl fight before. (like maybe when someone’s wife comes home and she’s still in the house… yes, i am just making that assumption.)
