I believe 5.1.3 refers to when everyone knows it's the wrong basket (except the shooter of course). i.e. - in the middle fo the game someone shoots into a basket everyone knows is wrong and scores - two points for opponent. In the case you mention however, the refs made a mistake and identified the wrong baskets at the jump (I did it once) and therefore, the teams shouldn't be penalized. There is no justification to take points off the board for B.
Turn everyone around, ensure everyone understands, and move on. JMO.
