But my thought is, if the ball hits the backboard under the ring and somehow goes into the backcourt this would be a violation because the ball didn't have a chance to go in. Or.....am I doing too much thinking?

You're doing too much thinking. If you judge it a try, it's a try, even if it doesn't have a chance to go in. It's similar to the "can a player rebound his / her own airball?" questions -- if it's a try, the player can get it, even if it was a really bad try and had no chance to enter the basket.
