What does the ball hitting the backboard / rim have to do with a blarge?

I'm wondering the same thing. Could it affect the shot clock setting if the offense keeps the ball (due to AP)?

There were two situations...he just mixed them together. THere was a shot clock violation that was called where the ball clearly changed directions on the way down. From where I was, it was not possible to tell if it hit te board or the rim.
