But I do want to know the wording for the "unsporting" act East is referring to. I still have 90 minutes before I can get to my books.
The only wording on unsporting slapping comes from 10.3.4 Comment. It's not address directly in 10-3-6. Slightly paraphrased

"draw[ing] attention to [yourself] or [as] a means of venting frustration" (10.3.4 Comment)

How does the entire comment for 10.3.4 read and how does 10-3-6 read?

Rule 10-3-6 doesn't even address the backboard, this is included in the "not limited to" portion of 10-3-6.

In practice, I can't imagine any time a player would slap the backboard without a try involved that wouldn't be ruled a technical foul. It's either an attempt to draw attention, or vent frustration. That doesn't mean it couldn't happen (never say never or always), I just can't imagine it.

I'm primarily thinking of a situation where the ball has already passed below the level of the rim so the try has ended.

The try may be over here, but it's still involved in the play.

I'm picturing one of two scenarios:
1. Try on the way down, B1 slaps the other side of the backboard. T
2. Try on the way down, B1 slaps the same side of the backboard. I'll likely assume he was trying to either block it or get the rebound.

For #1, I'd obviously use 10-3-6, but frankly, the coach isn't going to ask for a rule reference when you ring up his player for this.
