The Development Teams, feeling the need to meet the plan, figured that a velocity of 17 was within their reach.A good way to continue is:

The Development Team makes sure that all of the selected scope per Sprint is as Done as possible. The undone work is estimated and added to the Sprint Backlog of the next Sprint, so it doesn't mess up the Product Backlog.
