This week on the show, we were once again joined by TrueHoop's Henry Abbott. Henry is an era-defining basketblogger, the author of Ballistic, and probably the only NBA media-corps journalist who has dug into the numerous connections between the NBA's rich and powerful and Jeffrey Epstein. We talked about both of those topics this week, in addition to a bunch of other stuff.

Importantly, we also debuted the Broke Jumper Tip Line! We are sourcing scouting reports and any other hoops-related anecdotes about celebrities, politicians, and public figures of all sorts. Have you played pickup with Adam Neumann? Does Don Lemon have a busted jumper? Is Lina Khan an amazing rebounder? We need to know. Call (347) 380-6426. This week's debut tip is about Al Gore Jr., and Henry brought a ton of bonus tips with him, including some great anecdotes about how media pickup is organized at the Finals.
