Comments about Spalding Basketball Mounting Bracket:
Directions are horrible and I hope you are good at jerry rigging things, b/c you are going to need these skills. Nothing matches according to the directions, and after a couple of hours of jerry rigging, and buying extra bolts, it's done.

Comments about Spalding Basketball Mounting Bracket:
Used this to attach a backboard to my garage roof; the pitch of my roof is average, but the cross-braces were not long enough to hold the backboard perpendicular to the ground, and I had to buy extra brackets and extend each brace by about 12 inches. the cross braces are also kind of flimsy, though the other parts were more solid. Doesn't include hardware or instructions for root attachment, you're on your own there. Also, height is not adjustable, so you won't have a regulation-height hoop unless the edge of your garage is close to 10 feet high.
This said, I did get it attached and it seems solid enough. This bracket was much cheaper than the other options, so I can't complain too much.
