Well, I'm not one of the "Big Dogs", but I'm gonna respond anyway...if I am reading this right, your complaint is the fact that B caused the backboard to shake, thus "causing" the shot to miss, and you think this should be BI. So by that reasoning, when A5 goes up for a thunderous dunk, misses and slams the ball into the rim, thus causing the rim to vibrate and bounce around, we would have to call Offensive BI??? That, of course, makes no sense, right? Neither does calling BI on a player who does not touch the ball or the ring while the ball is on the ring or in the imaginary cylinder yada. yada, yada...it's not BI...why worry about it?

You aren't on the "Big Dogs" list, but I'll let your answer stand in for mine, since BI isn't a big issue for me, working mostly girls.
