2 * 3 Inbounders + 3 * 3 Robots = 15 balls taken out of play from other team.
So, only 3 balls are now in play for the opposing team.
Makes for a pretty low scoring match.

If the 3 inbounders each have 2 balls then as soon as another ball is scored they will be in violation of <G31>, even if an inbounder throws one into the field, another inbounder cannot 'immediately remove' a ball from the corral since he'll have 2 in his possession.

[G31] Only Inbounders may contact Basketballs; each Inbounder may hold a maximum of two Basketballs. During Teleop, Inbounders must remove Basketballs from the Corral immediately upon arrival. All Basketballs in the Alliance Station must be held by Inbounders once removed from the Corral.
Violation: Foul
