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


Scary Sister Spice planned a small get-together for all the ladies to say goodbye to Sister Spice, as she was going out of town for 12 days. (WTF? A party for a 12 day trip? I don’t shower for 12 days and have never thrown a party for my shower.) Old Spice interviews that the party is the perfect opportunity for her to give out invites to the wedding AND to ask Scary Sister Spice to be her other maid of honor… YOU HAVE A WEDDING EVERY SINGLE YEAR, CAN’T YOU SAVE ONE FOR NEXT YEAR? I’m sure her daughter will be thrilled to be one of two.

 We said deep, deep Vs… NOT onesies.

Sister Spice and Scary Sister Spice are wearing matching deep, deep Vs. Much like Sister Spice’s bathing suit from last week. Opportunistic Spice is wearing a onesie, but looks gorgeous as always. (I know, I’m a sucker for all things Opportunistic Spice. She just is easy for me to like.)

 Wo-oo here she comes… watch out boys she’ll chew you up…

Next in is Old Spice. She’s wearing white (glittery white) shoes that are better suited for someone not quite so mannish… and I do hope it’s before Labor Day, because again, they are v white shoes. Old Spice decides before the other ladies get there to ask (read, demand) that Scary Sister Spice be maid of honor. Scary Sister Spice looks horrified. And basically interviews that Old Spice clearly has no clue that Scary Sister Spice is not her friend.

 There’s no way she’ll ask me to be maid of honor.

Old Spice tells (TELLS, mind you) Scary Sister Spice that it’s a huge honor for Scary Sister Spice. She’s so backwards. Sister Spice is funny, because in a way that only one sister would do to another; she immediately laughs and starts toasting Scary Sister Spice’s new position in the wedding. She’s all “YAY! You’re the maid of honor. Boom. It’s official.” And Scary Sister Spice is all, “I need a stronger drink, and in a bigger glass”.

She totes asked me to be maid of honor. 

Wimpy Spice, Gangsta Spice, and Homewrecker Spice join in and Old Spice hands out the wedding invites. Quickly Old Spice announces that she wants to apologize to Homewrecker Spice for their “misunderstanding” at lunch. Homewrecker Spice rolls her eyes as Old Spice says that she wanted to take Homewrecker Spice to lunch again and this time she would listen better and everything would turn up roses. But Homewrecker Spice says it’s not about listening or lunch… but that she thinks Old Spice needs to listen to what Old Spice says. Old Spice says that Homewrecker Spice just lost her invite to the wedding.

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.)
