and...you got...what???

I was talking with our local interpreter tonight about this play(didn't happen to either of us, we were just thinking)...A1 drives for layup, B1 'acts a fool', and while the ball is on the rim, excessively slaps the backboard (not trying for a block, just being an @$$). Ball falls off ring, layup no good. Unsporting T, yes...basket inerference too??

Well, the rule says B.I. only concerns touching 'any part of the basket (including the net) while the ball is on the ring on in any part of the imaginary cylinder'.

Case book does not have this particular play. We know it's an obvious T, yes. Would it also be B.I. due to excessive contact of hitting backboard causing the ring to vibrate and have ball fall off ring?

I can't find rule support for B.I. in addition to T here, so i'm just leaning toward T.

any help??

There is no provision under NFHS rules for basket interference in your situation.

You will get some coaches and players thinking this is basket interference because under NBA rules, a basket could be awarded if a player slaps the backboard with such force that it causes the ball to take an unnatural bounce.

Slapping the backboard is neither basket interference nor is it goaltending and points cannot be awarded. A player who strikes a backboard, during a tap, or a try, 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.
