A closer look at one example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Notice the change in the playing area.
Keep this in mind
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
