A game this past season had a T called for a player slapping the backboard on a shot. Another official had an angle that showed the player got a piece of the ball before the backboard was hit. So, no basket, no technical AND the AP arrow for the inadvertant whistle gave the ball to the defending team.

What level was this? It's not a T to hit the backboard if you're trying to block a shot, even if you miss the ball altogether.

Likewise, it can still be a T for slapping the backboard if there is an attempt to block the shot....but the backboard contact is distinct from that attempt.
