Melo's wife could be reason why Melo bolts Denver


Recommended Posts

There are a number of plausible scenarios for why Carmelo Anthony could leave Denver. #1 on the list might be his wife.

 

When...ok, IF...Carmelo Anthony leaves Denver for New York or another mega market elsewhere, there will be plenty of blame to go around. Some will blame management for failing to build a championship-caliber team around the greatest Nugget since Alex English. Some will blame Melo's representation of Leon Rose and "Worldwide Wes" for manipulating the free agent system for Melo as they did this summer for LeBron James. Some will blame Melo himself for having delusions of grandeur about where he belongs in the NBA's star system...a belief that might lead him to the biggest market possible.

 

And others will blame Melo's wife and longtime companion, "television personality" LaLa Vazquez, for breaking up the Nuggets akin to the way Yoko Ono (allegedly) led to John Lennon's departure from the Beatles 40 years ago.

 

 

 

LaLa's insatiable appetite for attention never seems to abate, evident most recently by having VH1 film and eventually broadcast a series based on her and Melo's summer nuptials in New York. She also has her own Twitter account (ok, who doesn't these days?) and allegedly caused quite a stir with Mavericks fans during the playoffs two years ago in another alleged attempt to get herself into the news.

 

Given all this, it's fair to question if Denver ever can satisfy LaLa's desire for attention on a national scale. In New York or Los Angeles (where she and Melo recently purchased a new $2 million home), LaLa can hang out with her friends in the entertainment industry, including Kim Kardashian and Ciara, and regain some relevance in those markets' TMZ-driven news cycle. In Denver she's a nobody. I suspect the average Nuggets fan doesn't even know who she is when she saddles up courtside center for games at Pepsi Center.

Same thing that happened with Mark Teixeira, his [expletive] wife wanted to live on the East Coast so he left the Angels.

 

On topic though, Melo would only want to leave so he can be like the other punks and team up so he can take the easy way out. The Miami big 3 started a trend.
