I am not trying to be funny guys, but you were not there. How do you know that the ball was not clearly gone and the defender was not lazy and slapped the backboard. Now, it might have been a real block attempt, but it might have been a deliberate attempt to shake the backboard. Just because the person say it one way, does not mean that the official did not see it another way and was right. I really do not know, I was not there. And the same goes for the grabbing on the rim too.
