From your description, I'm not so sure a T should be called. IAW Case Book 10.3.5, attempting to block a shot and striking the backboard is not an automatic T. It must have been intentional or in an attempt to draw attention to ones self or venting frustration. Was this the case? Just swinging and mising the ball and hitting the backboard is not an automatic T.

Another Myth Bites The Dust ...
Slapping the backboard is neither basket interference nor is it goaltending and points cannot be awarded. A player who strikes a backboard so forcefully that it cannot be ignored because it is an attempt to draw attention to the player, or a means of venting frustration, may be assessed a technical foul. When a player simply attempts to block a shot and accidentally slaps the backboard it is neither a violation nor is it a technical foul.
