Because, if you miss, you have to waste time retrieving the bouncing ball.

A goalie bot can create all sorts of trouble for the 10 point goal.
Most balls will be launched from a low height, so any robot in front of your shooter becomes a time vampire. No assist points until a goal is scored. No new cycle until that goal is scored.
