No.

How do we know if the basket is good?

5-1: A goal is made when a live ball enters the basket from above
and remains in or passes through. No goal is scored if an untouched throwin
goes through the basket.


So, what's defines the basket?

1-10-1: Each basket shall consist of a single metal ring, 18 inches in
inside diameter, its flange and braces, and a white-cord 12-mesh net, 15 to
18 inches in length, suspended from beneath the ring.

No.

What's really is the definition of basket interference?

4-6-1: Basket interference occurs when a player: Touches the ball or any part of the basket (including the net)
while the ball is on or within either basket.
