A signal I and many of my partners use often, although it is not in the book, is indicating a two point goal when the shooter is close to the line. I will raise two fingers about arm chest level to the table and my partner so they do not get confused. Had it happen last night. A1 had her left foot on the line. I was table side so as I went by the table I showed two fingers and said "that was a two". Team A coach also saw my signal and, although she may not have agreed with the call, she understood what I saw and made no argument about it other than saying "I thought it was a three". This mechanic is not in the book but a lot of officials I see use it and it seems to work on those close three point attempts.
