he wonders why the backboard wasn't inspected after that thunderous dunk. I wonder also
I've been around this game a long time and have never seen a backboard inspected at a location I was working or playing. Not saying its never happened, just that it would be highly unusual. In other words, no one is going to think to inspect a backboard absent something appearing to be wrong with it.

Its his assertion that he, from the locker room, HEARD a thunderous dunk -- whatever that means. What does a dunk sound like, especially from the locker room? Was it thunderous due to the actual dunk or due to the applause? How did he know which board it was without asking? Why didn't he initiate the inspection prior to taking his team on the court?

This was all after the fact and clearly an attempt to deflect blame.
