Yes, Rally Master backboards are good, in fact, they are among the best in the industry. They are made of a dense plastic material that is very durable. You can get boards that are sloped for a more lofted return or regular flat walls with no slope.
the backboard was invented in the 1900s
First BackboardIn 1893, the first backboards were created to keep fans from interfering. They were originally made out of chicken wire, as were the baskets. With the addition of backboards, the game changed to include rebounding. Wood and GlassIn 1904, wooden backboards became mandatory because of safety reasons, including injuries suffered from the chicken wire. By 1909, glass backboards were becoming common because of their aesthetic appeal. Modern regulated backboards are made of fiberglass. Fiberglass is harder to break and highly transparent.
There wasn't a first final in the NBA
