When colliding with the lower wall the paddle would incorrectly go to far before stopping. This fixes the order of operations to correct when the paddle stops
The Ball was going half way into the side walls instead of bouncing off directly due to the collision code not taking into account the thickness of the ball to its center. As we are storing the position of the ball as its center we also need to take that into account when colliding
Adjust the x positions for checking the ball collision with the paddle so the ball bounces before getting half way through the paddle

This fixes the paddle clipping into the lower wall when moving down, The ball clipping half way into the 3 side walls before detecting the collision, and the ball clipping into the paddle before bouncing
