A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.

Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
