Has anyone here ever attempted to fix a basketball goal backboard?

Last year I bought one of those adjustable height goals that has the base you fill with water. The backboard has broke in a few pieces and I do not want to buy another and have to put it together. I am thinking I could ghetto its up and try and replace the backboard.

I actually replaced the backboard on my old basketball hoop. Strangely enough, I threw a basketball through it. It was fairly easy, as it is made to be assembled. I got a cheap-o one some somewhere and it took all of 30 minutes.

You can't replicate the feel of a real basketball goal. Also basketball is meant to be played with others. Go to the local park or rec center and get your basketball fix.

can you have one kid sit on another kid's shoulders and hold his arms in a hoop-like shape?
