Purpose And Intent ...

A ball striking the backboard does not.

Thanks ilyazhito.
Agree that there are rule differences between the basket and the backboard, and they are not often interchangeable.
But in certain situations, as in my two exam questions, doesn't purpose and intent carry any weight?
Do you have an educated opinion to offer on one, of both, of my backboard/basket team/opponent exam questions?
