Correctable errors

You still can prevent this by taking your time. I agree that ultimately it is out of your hands. I know I can tell when we are close to the bonus. When I am not close I tell my partners who the shoot is and ask the table a coupe of times (or my partners) "Are we in the bonus." Now this is easier when you have a scoreboard with the team fouls. It is not very common anymore to see a scoreboard with only the bonus light. I also tend to ask when I get a change, "How many team fouls do we have?" So you can do a lot of things to make sure we are close to the bonus. I may not prevent all situations, but you can keep everyone on their toes.
