Melo and Lala Seperated (Update: Getting A Divorce)

[JBreezeNY]

That sucks

I wish people would keep things like this in mind when they bash people like melo and call him selfish for wanting to be in NYC.

It's not just the spotlight for most of these guys
It's their entire lives

Why would they think past basketball, they're miserable. Just look at the comments in this thread about his personal life. There will never be context because all basketball players are greedy, don't think about anything other than money and everything is an ultior motive.

Never mind some of these players don't have a father, mother or both, never mind these players are active in the communities that these posters never stepped a foot in to help out themselves, never mind that these dudes are just doing their jobs the same way we do our jobs.

I think everyone believed that moving Melo meant likely to LA which Melo calls a "second home". There Lala can continue to be the entrepreneur that she is and Melo can play in a major market.

Sucks. Met them both a few times at my old job. Their son plays on an AAU team and they went to a few games together.

Their kid is kinda overdramatic playing ball tho, but whatever. Hopefully this separation doesnt cause too much harm on the kid.

[Thugger HBC]

I never realized until now that Lala is 5 years older than Melo. Lala is 37, Melo is 32

Just a random thought

When they first met she didn't know the age difference either.

Knicks- 0

Ewing Curse- 731


...it knows no bounds.

Groveling over another man's personal issues is some low class ****. I understand some have their lines drawn in the sand, but y'all really are exposing yourselves.

Even the one's that claim to be his fans can go blow.

[Amsterdam]

Trade talks happen to EVERY team and player. Their marriage was on glass grounding to have been "supposedly" affected by this.

I mean, this was just as bad as in 2010-11 when he was on his way out to NJ/NY from Denver.

Some of y'all are taking this Phil hate to new levels now.

I dont like you as a poster, but i agree their hate for the man is unbelievable.

Believe me, I could give two **** what you think.

Maybe she wasn't a fan of Carmelo using her and their young as a scapegoat for him not wanting to go elsewhere and win a championship.

This is a sad attempt at taking a swipe at a dude you don't like as a fan, who's going through a real life issue.

Let's hope you don't ever have to spend a day without your kids when they're at this age.

Honestly. This is a prime example of a lot of members of #teampeyote

does that make members peyotephiles? there's a couple a jokes stuck in there somewhere.

Maybe Melo is leaving her for Greenie?

Greenie IS Lala.

Imagine, in the coming months, all we here from her is "good riddance we got rid of him", "you guys were right"....then you know who she definitely is. Melo is light skinned, too....hmmm....it all makes sense

Melo and Lala have always been incredibly public with building their brand.

When you are in the public you get a lot of perks of being a known name.

However when things go bad, you stay in the public. That's the trade off.

These two are fame whores and have relished their name in the media. I wouldn't feel bad for them now.

Rest assured, they don't care about any personal tragedy that happens in your life either. You're more like an ugly, poor bug to Melo.

Okay, so it's pretty established that Phil was gunning for Melo's marriage to get him to waive the NTC.

But what if Melo was using Phil this whole time?

To break up his marriage so he can upgrade to something younger and better?

Both these guys are engaging in next-level mental warfare.

You're off the chain today, Jason

1. This has been rumored for quite some time.
2. This might actually make it easier to trade Anthony.
3. As a child of divorce I can tell you that the kids are the one's that will suffer (so no one should be happy about this regardless of what it might mean for this team and the chances of trading Anthony).

Why would it make it easier given that if he moves now he isn't going to be easily able to see son during the season unless he stays in New York?

[Jimmit79]

Did anyone consider this could be a plot for melos excuse to stay in NY?

Soooooo it's Phil's fault people are breaking up?

You quoted me even with the edit and you post that dumb crap. It is a joke a buddy...wipe those tears and learn to read. You people are more sensitive than a girl on a period. Jesus.

I miss when this board had jokes and people weren't offended all the time.

We can trade Melo to Brooklyn for Jeremy Lin.

Full circle, ladies and gentlemen, full circle.

[god shammgod]

well.....if he wants to save his family, he's probably staying. or even if he just wants to see his son a lot. now with this coming to light, i doubt he goes anywhere.

Wow you're a disgusting human making the same assumptions snotty upper class folks make.

I pray I never meet people like you.

what you said didnt sound like a joke, and the edit doesnt make it seem any more believable.
