I guess I am thinking of where the point deferential will come from. I guess this will be steering a little off topic. If both alliances get the 40 points, then autonomous/hybrid and shooting baskets will decide the match.

I guess I am wondering how much of a disadvantage a missed shot would be. Suppose if team A that can only make 50 percent of the shots at the 3 point hoop and team B that can make 100 percent at the 2 point hoop. Then if 6 shots were made by both teams. Then the total would be Team A 9 points and Team B 12 points. Team B would also have opportunity to recover some of the missed shots of team A. This is an over-simplified example.
