Good Vibrations (Beach Boys, 1966) ...

Way back in twentieth century, I believe that the decision to charge a technical foul for slapping the backboard was based on whether, or not, the slap caused the basket/backboard to vibrate. Of course, that is no longer the case, a slap resulting from an attempt to block a shot can cause the basket/backboard to shake like a Polaroid picture and it's play on.

Am I right Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.?

Hey. A reference to OutKast and the Beach Boys in the same Forum post. Not too shabby.
