Well looks to me as if your partner missed one. Is that the only mistake that was made that night? You are correct team B did not gain control of the ball so the count should have continued, did you make any errors in that game?
I believe if you and the coach are going to blame your partner for that error, i must ask why in a close game would you not have done some preventive officating and informed the coach that he had NO timeouts left when he used his last one! When the coach was yelling at you, did you not talk to the coach and back up YOUR TEAM MATE!
Your partner had the basketballs to admit he had an inadvertent whistle, i wonder if the coach admitted he had an inadvertent timeout request.
Good Luck in the future.
