Ask yourself the question...
Why did the player purposely slap the backboard? |

There is no reason for a player to purposely contact the backboard.
None, zero, nada, zilch...... It's only done to draw attention to himself. You leave that go, and his opponent now is gonna one-up him.....then he's gonna one-up him..... When you gonna whack someone? Where do you tell the coach, who has seen it now twice unpenalized, the threshold is for purposefully slapping the board to hard or too loud? Whack it when it first happens. If it happens again, you have set the threshhold.... |

If he hung on to the rim long enough to slap the backboard, he deserved it. Good call, but I did have to watch it twice!

agreed
T - No question. What ever happened to calling the T for pulling the rim down? Every dunk I see now, regardless if there is even another player in the front court, the dunker pulls the rim down. I quit calling T's after I was written up for "overofficiating" it. In my oppinion he could have been T'd up for hanging - the slap was automatic.

Now, hanging on it or performing a "pull up", that's different. |
