Hi Roger,
I think that making a sidespin back is one of the easiest ways to deal with it. Take a look at our lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin. In there Jeff is blocking the ball. You can do this but you need to allow for the sidespin by angling your bat slightly. So if the ball is going to spin off to your left, you need to face the bat to the right and vice versa.

Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
