Had both last night and were discussing after the game. Just wondering!
I had no violation on both. Partner said violation on 1, but not 2.

By general interp, in 1) if the ball continues inbounds (that is, lands farther away from the endline), then it hit the bottom and not the back. Legal play. If the ball bounces back toward the endline, even if it lands inbounds, then it hit the back of the backboard and is OOB.
Same interp in 2), assuming B1 was between the backboard and the endline.
