That's a wrong assumption also. Where the backboard was hit is irrelevant as long as the the contact was on the same side of the backboard that the ball was put up on. The criteria used to determine the call is simply judging whether the player was legitimately attempting to block the ball or not.

Don't make the call any harder than it has to be.
