I would like to hear some input on this as well. This is always a hot topic amongst our officials. When is the "slap" just going for the blocked shot, and when is it actually a T? A lot of our guys refuse to call a T if the player is going for a blocked shot attempt as long as the slapping does not shake the backboard. What is the correct ruling on this situation. I have heard much confusion on this topic.
