It's a goal. The entire assembly is called "the goal" which has a hoop, a net, a backboard and a goalpost. All of these collectively together are called a GOAL.

No, the act of putting the ball through the hoop is the goal. The physical structures that stands at opposite ends of the court are known as "hoops". "Goal" is a general term, not specific to the physical object. That's why you can use it in many sports, not just basketball. The hoop refers to the metal rim, but it's also used for the entire structure.

You're wrong. I'm from KY and therefore whatever anybody from KY or IN says about basketball is the correct answer.

Is it a fieldhoop? No. It's fieldgoal. Was that a 3 point fieldnet? No, 3 point fieldgoal.

A Canadian invented the game and I'm Canadian, so whatever I say about the game is the correct answer. I say it's a hoopienet.
