Ball goes off the iron, up, bounces on top of backboard (but never passes over) and straight through the basket. Shot off with 1 sec showing on clock. Team B should have won but the officials got together and disallowed basket because ball bounced on top of rectangular backboard. OUCH! It was replayed all day on all the newscasts on that station

Without seeing the play or the basket, is it possible that the officials disallowed the goal in this situation because the ball hit a cord, shot clock, or support instead?
