"Basketball Wives" Lacks Substance

Shaunie O'Neal, wife of NBA basketball player, Shaquille O'Neal
The reality show, Basketball Wives, which premiered last month, lacks substance and has not improved with newer episodes. There is a significant emphasis on wealth, rather than what is truly important in life.
The women on the show are emotionally wounded and bitter, due to unfaithful basketball players. It is natural to feel hurt by such infidelity, but they are not working through their problems and pain in a productive manner.
The show didn't contain the substance of the unrelated, but similarly titled, February 2010 hour long documentary "Basketball Wives" which aired on E and focused on the unexpected pitfalls of becoming a professional basketball player.

That program added stories of sadness, such as an NBA wife developing cancer before her wedding and having to undergo chemotherapy, which made her hair fall out. Her finance, who is now her husband, shaved his head to show his support and solidarity with her.
Another curious item is Shaunie O'Neal's disappearance from this week's episode. Her husband, Shaquille O'Neal, sent a legal notice to the makers of the reality show, informing them her appearance and discussion of their marriage, would be a violation of their divorce confidential agreement.

Shaq Tries To Shutdown Show "Basketball Wives"

Shaq's Wife Violated Confidentiality Agreement On "Basketball Wives"



Shaunie and Shaquille O'Neal

VH-1's new reality show, "Basketball Wives" starring, Shaunie O'Neal, the soon to be ex-wife of, Shaquille O'Neal, is in hot water of a legal variety.

It seems Shaunie signed a very binding confidentiality agreement with estranged husband, Shaq, which prohibits her from discussing their relationship publicly, particularly in a book or on a television program, which is exactly what she has done.

The scandalous "Basketball Wives" has thus far discussed Shaq's adulterous affair with, Laura Govan, the fiancée of fellow NBA basketball player, Gilbert Arenas, while kindly leaving out Shaunie's infidelity. Shaunie reportedly had two boyfriends during the course of their marriage and previously left her deacon husband to marry Shaq.

Shaq had his lawyers send over a legal warning to VH-1 days before the show aired, but they went ahead with the debut without removing references to Shaq that aren't particularly flattering. Shaq is now threatening suit.

The show has a history of legal problems. The program clearly had to change its name from "NBA Wives" to "Basketball Wives" for legal reasons, as it would violate the league's trademark rights.

One of the show's stars, Royce Reed, was slapped with a gag order from, Dwight Howard, instructing her not to divulge the contents of their past relationship or mention his name or that of their son.
