that made no sense at all... It does make sense or atleast I understand, I do believe that it is considered out of bounds. I could be wrong but I think that if it goes over the backboard most refs call that out.
The rim is the circular hoop attached perpendicularly to the backboard. The rim is usually painted orange and is made of iron. When the game first originated, a basket was used instead of a rim, which is why it is called 'basketball'.
A backboard is a flat vertical surface used in basketball to which the basket is attached, or a wall in the game of tennis, often used for practice, where balls can be hit at a flat surface in order to practise hitting.

Before Chuck Connors made his mark as "The Rifleman" on television, he already played a starring role on the basketball court. Before the first home game of the Boston Celtics, Connors makes history: He is the first player to shatter a backboard in the NBA (though it was called the Basketball Association of American until 1949).
The backboard is used to bank the ball off of. The box on the backboard (right above the basket) is used as a guide. If you hit certain spots from certain sides of the goal, the ball will always go in the basket if thrown with the right technique.
A 'bank shot' is a shot that hits the backboard before going through the ring for a score or not going in to create a rebound situation.

In basketball, an assist is typically awarded to a player who passes the ball to a teammate leading directly to a made basket. The criteria considered for an assist include the pass being intentional, directly leading to a score, and not involving excessive dribbling or offensive moves by the recipient.
