A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
