I'm not a mind-reader. I am, however, a logician. And one fundamental logical form is the disjunctive syllogism. If you only have two choices, and you know one of them
can't be true, then logic dictates that the other must be true.
My choices were:
1) Juulie thinks it's legal for the ball to pass over a rectangular backboard; or
2) Juulie's talking about a ball that goes over the basket.
I knew (1) was false. It was easy after that

I would go with the jumper that comes up short. But as others sometimes say, YMMV.
