I'm going to guess that the slapping of the rim is what signaled the "excessive, emphatic" judgement by the L. Good call.

I do not know anyone that uses the term "slapping the rim." You grab the rim and you slap the backboard.
I just wanted to make that point to you. It is always better to use the terminology of the rulebook. The rulebook does not say “slapping the rim” is in itself a violation.
