In the paragraph box, write the main idea of the paragraph below.

to win a basketball game, remember this the best offense is a good defense. make use of three strategies that have
earned victories for many a team. first, stay in the defensive mode on the transitions. this is the easiest way to force a
turn-over. it is also the best way to hang onto the ball when you've got it. second, attack the boards, games are decided
by rebounds. third, pressure your opponent. running a full-court or half-court press will tire out your opponents, give
them trouble in-bounding the ball, and force them to make mistakes which will work in your favor. using this strategy will
you win more games.

main idea:

She took up a scalpel and slit the monkey's abdomen, making a slow and gentle cut, keeping the blade well away from her gloved fingers. the spleen was puffed up and tough, leathery, like a globe of smoked salami. she did not see any bloody lesions inside this monkey. she had expected that the monkey's interior would be a lake of blood, but no, this monkey looked all right, it had not bled into itself. if the animal had died of ebola, this was not a clear case. she opened up the intestine. there was no blood inside it. the gut looked okay. then she examined the stomach. there she found a ring of bleeding spots at the junction between the stomach and the small intestine. this could be a sign of ebola, but it was not a clear sign. it could also be a sign of simian fever, not ebola. therefore, she could not confirm the presence of ebola virus in this animal based on a visual inspection of the internal organs during necropsy.
