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


 You’re a psychic?      No, I’m a giant.

Homewrecker Spice asks Attila the Hun the psychic if it’s a good idea for her to move her family to LA and the psychic assures her that it’s a fantastic idea and that nothing could go wrong with having her parents and her son all dependent on her ability to get knocked up by a baller.

 You really think he’ll leave his wife for me?

At Eleven, Old Spice and Doug are meeting with our fav restaurant manager, Mirel de la Torre, and boy does he have some surprises for the men couple. After meeting a “sexy bartender” working with no shirt, they head upstairs to get a sampling of what the go-go dancers will be doing. Old Spice was shocked that one of them was a girl. And a very pretty girl at that. She thought that there would only be male dancers. (Yes, Old Spice, because only men are gay… you’re so progressive.) The girl is in gold and black garters… the guy is in purple. And I shade my eyes because I was not raised to appreciate men in purple bikinis. But I looked too soon and saw that purple bikini dancing in a cage and I blushed in the privacy of my own room.

 Dear Diary, I’m not in Kansas anymore.

Mirel pretended to love the couple. Old Spice pretended to love the dancing. Doug pretended to love Old Spice. Old Spice interviewed that Doug was enjoying it a little too much, and that made one of us. Because I didn’t enjoy it at all. Give me a well-dressed guy over a guy in a Barney-purple bikini any day. Old Spice thinks they are living outside the box. And now I’m thinking about living outside the bun and kinda want Taco Bell. THEN Old Spice interviews that the wedding is going to be “bananas” (cut to guy in bikini, UGH!). “Everyone is going to see a different side of Doug and I.” It’s me and Doug. Idiot.

I love carrying a purse. 

Why did you bring your purse? 

 Look, my purse is bigger than her head.

 Dear Diary, I need a purse to cover my head.

Old Spice then surprised Doug by telling him that Chani was going to be there and be the maid of honor. Doug seemed to have a weird reaction. Maybe he was just shocked that Chani said yes, or maybe it was because he didn’t know if Old Spice was being delusional or not… I’m not sure; it just seemed off to me.

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.)
