Just to add a little to Nevadaref's response, which is absolutely correct:

It is a violation for the ball to pass over the top of the backboard. (To be absolutely precise, this is only the case for rectangular backboards---but when is the last time you saw a fan-shaped backboard?) The back of the backboard is considered out of bounds. The top, bottom, sides, and front are considered in bounds.
