I think it *should* be a violation, but as we discussed on McGriff's, I think the rules can be used to show it isn't.

Bob and I have discussed this play in the past. The difficulty arises from deciding whether there is a loss of team control like there is on a try or tap. Is it a try or tap since it hit the backboard? A player can throw the ball of the backboard and begin a new dribble. He can attempt a shot, miss everything and go get it. Those two examples would tend to make one think that a ball that hits A's backboard is considered a shot. The NF even clarified theat a pass from behind the arc is considered a shot if it goes in.
As I said, I think it's a violation but if I'm on the floor, I'll probably tell B's coach that I thought it was a shot.
