The only provision based on causing the basket to move is when a player pulls down a movable ring so that it contacts the ball before the ring returns to its original position. There is a case play that indicates this also includes a ring that is still vibrating
because of the original grabbing of the ring, but no provision for a vibrating ring due to slapping the backboard.
This is a very common misconception about BI - one that I used to have. In fact, I'm positive there was a thread about this sometime last year...
