Rules Question

[Jurassic Referee]

But isn't there a rule or case that includes note like "Throwing the ball off the backboard is the same as throwing the ball off the floor, except that throwing the ball of one's own backboard does not constitute a dribble"?

There's a rule that says that "a ball which touches the front faces or edges of a backboard is treated the same as touching the floor inbounds, except that when the ball touches the thrower's backboard it does not constitute a part of the dribble". NFHS R4-4-5. Is that what you were thinking of?

Note that it also doesn't say that it doesn't constitute a pass either.
