From allegations of footsie under the table to real talk about friends getting involved in family matters, last night’s season finale of Basketball Wives did not disappoint. Naturally, Twitter was abuzz because none of us could wait to see the moment when Jackie and Evelyn would talk face-to-face about Jackie’s daughter Ta’kari Lee. The ladies all met for their final group dinner, and though it certainly was dramatic, it was much tamer than we could have imagined.
Some people were just hoping that everyone would mind their business:

While others were hoping for some hands to be thrown:
I really need for Shaunie to get ghetto at least once… please let that be this episode. #BasketballWives #BBWLA pic.twitter.com/0Vn2ASQ8K5

Evelyn needed to clear the air about her alleged game of footsie with Jackie:
I couldn't believe when I heard she said that https://t.co/s5TcXQLtvz

I never played footsies with Jackie lol #Basketballwives WTF

While Shaunie, who decided that she was “completely done with Jackie Christie”, wanted to make sure that the fans understood where she stood.
I am so happy I have grown since those days. #basketballwives

I just want everyone to stop talking about people's children!!! #EVERYBODY #basketballwives
— Shaunie O'Neal (@ShaunieONeal) August 8, 2017
Let's be very clear….. I am not on the fence about anything. Both of these ladies need to tend to their OWN families!! #SeeYouAtTheReunion
— Shaunie O'Neal (@ShaunieONeal) August 8, 2017
Although, if we’re honest, we’re not so sure where Shaunie’s loyalties lie.
Also confused? Jackie Christie:
Girl did shaunie say she guess so?!?! #bbwla6 @vh1 #basketballwives
— Jackie Christie (@JackieChristie) August 8, 2017
Jackie: You are my friend, right?
Shaunie: I guess so…

The friendships and new alliances on the show do tend to shift to the point that they can give you whiplash:
Been looking at Tami sideways since she's started hanging out with Jackie #BasketballWives #BBWLA pic.twitter.com/at2qK9D0kj

Tami also dropped some truth on us:
I will say what I've always said, "I don't care 2b involved w/this Jackie daughter stuff I minded my business from the beginning & still do

But this drama is starting to get to the Twitter-verse, which is pretty much divided when it comes to who and what they believe.
Can y'all stop acting like Takari isn't 27 & grown asf? She shared what happened & Jackie other daughter confirmed it #basketballwives pic.twitter.com/Dh7zLw0StZ

It’s all enough to make your head spin! Next week’s reunion is about to be crazy. Tune in on Monday at 9/8C!
Outside of the restaurant Shaunie and Jackie get into another argument that causes the women to question their friendship.
