Slapping the backboard, redux

[cmathews]

Tony,
I don't think that an attempt to block that shakes the rim hard enough to knock the ball out is any longer legit. I think that shaking the rim enough to knock the ball out should be a penalty, I agree with everything else you said, it needs to be called correctly. For crying out loud it is BI to touch the net while the ball is in the cylinder I don't think that shaking the rim should be any different..
