When you go into a game on offense, you make a couple moves and see what the defender is going to do. Then you pretty much can figure out what he is going to do against you - whether he carries his hands low or high, whether he is bumping or pushing, those type of things. ↗

As one who was a prosecutor for many years, I can tell you that having a tape recording of interrogations would help everybody.
