I may certainly be wrong here, but I think the original poster is asking about checking the clock when he
stops play, not when he's ready to put the ball back in play.
I would certainly check the table for subs before putting the ball back in play, but my first look is never at the table when I'm stopping play. I usually get my shooter first, then get the clock. If there's no shot in the play, I will try to check the clock immediately.
Sometimes there's confusion about what's being called with a double whistle, and then sometimes I am more concerned with making sure I'm on the same page as my partner before I check the clock.
