There is no case play that says this isn't BI. You simply have to read the rule regarding basket interference. There's nothing in that rule that says it's BI if the backboard is slapped. Further, the case play states what happens when this play occurs. Seems pretty clear to me.
10.3.5 SITUATION: A1 tries for a goal, and (a) B1 jumps and attempts to block the shot but instead slaps or strikes the backboard and the ball goes into the basket; or (b) B1 vibrates the ring as a result of pulling on the net and the ball does not enter the basket.
RULING: In (a) legal and the basket counts; and (b) a technical foul is charged to B1 and there is no basket.
