A 3 point penalty is better than 50+ points uncontested. If the shooting robot then went forward/backward to draw penalties that would almost surely draw the ire of G18-1.
Oh, it definitely wasn't the best defense (we were sure to let them know the fouls they were incurring, and helped them develop a better defensive strategy), however the point was it could happen. If they wanted to defend us, they needed to incur a foul. Teams need to be 100% sure they don't touch an opponent while they're in the feeding station if they want to play defense this year.
