Likewise, they could throw the balls to the backcourt, allowing the backbot time to scoop them up and having a distinct advantage in the next period.
Another type of defensive stratedgy.

their alliance.
(Think about it: I'm the red alliance. You just scored a ball in your corner goal, which is right in front of me. I want to do my darndest to either break even and score it in my corner goal, or come out ahead and nail a three. To do that, I have to reintroduce that ball into play.)
