I'm quite confident that he means calling BI instead of a T for the backboard slap is a cop out.

Or conversely, calling BI instead of no-calling it because the player slapped the backboard while trying to block the shot. Some guys call BI here because they think (and it's reinforced by the screaming coaches and fans for one team and the compliant coach of the "guilty" player) something has to be called.
